#1 No problem, just stick with the acting director. With the extra pay and perks, I'm sure he won't mind filling for the balance of Comey's term or until a Recess Appointment can be arranged. Who knows, he might be the man for the job, and it could lead to the eventual reduction of elimination of the 10 year tour of duty. If he screws up, fire him as well and promote the next guy to acting director.

Plan B: Nominate a qualified African American or female to fill the position and let Schumer stall that one.

There's nothing in your ball sack on this one Schumer. Have a nice day.

#2 Sure no problem, while we're on the subject of special prosecutors, we can also appoint one or more to investigate Hillary's dealings and behaviors while in the government service.

The IRS Director seems like a good next move.

#6 How's he gonna block it with only 46 votes? Good luck, Schmuckie.

Unfortunately, he can probably count on at least two so-called Republicans.

#7 Unless some of the Pub Senators go renegade, Schumer cannot block the confirmation of the new FBI director thanks to Harry Reid and the nuclear option.
