Army Times:
The Senate appeared to have confirmed Christine Wormuth Wednesday night — until the body reversed her confirmation just hours later in an unusual development.
...proceedings shows Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., announcing the reversal. Schumer’s staff did not immediately respond to a request for clarification from Army Times, and the senator deleted a previous tweet hailing Wormuth’s confirmation.
Wormuth had already acknowledged her confirmation online Wednesday evening, saying she was “so honored to be confirmed as Secretary of the Army” in response to a friend’s tweet. Sergeant Major of the Army Michael Grinston had also shared his congratulations with his new civilian boss as well.
bottom line...
And this is our great nation's constitutionally elected mice w/o term limits...much to ado about nothing!
