I'm not really answering any questions on that until I find out if we're in the majority, no Republican chairman's gon na make a decision until we know what the status is. So it's kind of a caucus decision not to talk about nominations until we get that firmed up.

It seems to me [ it should be someone who has ] got bipartisan support, and that wasn't the way Sessions was treated.

I learned today that I have tested positive for COVID-19. As of now, I am asymptomatic and I'm feeling good. I am currently in Washington D.C. and plan to isolate in my apartment while continuing to work and voting remotely.

As I've said before, Congress requires written reasons justifying an IG's removal. A general lack of confidence simply is not sufficient detail to satisfy Congress, the President has not provided the kind of justification for the removal of IG Linick required by this law.

I am doing the usual things, trying not to shake hands with people, washing my hands and being careful about sneezing and stuff like that. Beyond that, not much. I am not avoiding meetings.
