Oh please, take Brownback away from Kansas, Senator McConnell, please. |
Please, oh, please, in your infinite wisdom as Senate Majority Leader, will you ensure that Sam Brownback's nomination is successfully confirmed.
The children and families of Kansas, many who have reached out to me, implore you to give us, some form of hope in our struggle to survive the scourage of the Governor's manufacturing of poverty policies, by taking Sam Brownback off our hands.
Sir, we beseech thee, in your honorary and official titles, to solicit across the aisle to secure the necessary votes to install Brownback into this federal position.
We have offered Kris Kobach as a sacrifice to appease the Senate leadership in D.C. in confirming the nomination of Brownback.
We do not want either gentlemen back.
We want Brownback to resign as governor.
He was never supposed to be governor, but Kobach manipulated the entire campaign finance system so that profits from KVC, a non-profit child welfare organization, would fund political campaigns unreported through false claims to Medicaid, stripped legislative constituency services where there are no civil rights, and has commenced the systematic stripping of property from the people to stick it in land banks as another tool to gerrymander districts, further stripping voting rights from the people.
We want him to be held to federal scrutiny of the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Justice to uncloak what he, and Kobach have done to the children, and the legacies of Kansas.
We want him in the international spotlight, for the world to see how he and his associates at KVC have profited from children legally kidnapped and sold into the human trafficking industry called adoption.
Godspeed.
Brownback heads to D.C. to meet with McConnell amid uncertainty about confirmation
Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback will meet with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in Washington on Wednesday as the Kansas Republican inches toward leaving his state office for a federal post.
McConnell’s spokesman, David Popp, confirmed that the meeting would take place but offered no details on the GOP leader’s meeting with Brownback.
President Donald Trump nominated Brownback to serve as the next ambassador-at-large for international religious freedom in July, but his confirmation process has moved slowly, with the governor poised to move into the final month of the year without a confirmation vote scheduled.
Brownback told reporters last week that he is hoping for a vote before Christmas. He has begun handing over some of his most important duties to Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer, including the power to make Cabinet appointments and leadership over the state budget.
Brownback’s spokeswoman did not immediately respond to phone calls about the meeting with McConnell.
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee narrowly advanced his nomination in October by an 11-10 vote after Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia raised concerns about Brownback’s record on LGBT rights.
Democrats have indicated that they plan to force Republicans to take extra procedural steps to confirm Brownback, which could delay a vote until next year.
Sen. Pat Roberts’ office confirmed that the Kansas Republican will join the governor during his meeting with McConnell.
