Last night, U.S. District Judge Amir Ali, a Biden appointee, ordered President Trump to end his 90-day freeze on foreign aid.

Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN), now governor of Indiana, was not present to cast his vote. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) voted with Republicans against Ali. If Braun had been around, it would’ve been a 50-50 tie, and the nomination would’ve failed because Kamala Harris wasn’t in Washington DC. She was on vacation in Hawaii.
Show up for your votes, folks.
H/T Publius.
