The Senate has just approved John Kerry’s nomination to be Secretary of State.
The vote was 94-3. GOP Senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, both of Texas, and James Inhofe of Oklahoma voted against him. I guess they were holding out for John Bolton.

Amazng how quickly Elizabeth Warren became the Senior Senator fom Massachusetts. Has this ever happened before?
I was wondering that too. Some people wait decades, she waited five minutes.

The three naysayers are doing harm to our country.
Their votes would not alter the confirmation of Kerry.
I cannot imagine any political favor they would gain from their constituents.
Instead of making it a unanimous vote to send Kerry into the hostile world of diplomacy with the full backing if our country, it Shiw our enemies how divided and political this nation has become..an obvious sign of weakness to the hostiles.
I predict Ted Cruz will self-destruct. Y’all read it here first.
