Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell tweeted Friday morning that he'd just spoken over the phone with Trump. "He’s in good spirits and we talked business — especially how impressed Senators are with the qualifications of Judge Barrett. Full steam ahead with the fair, thorough, timely process that the nominee, the Court, & the country deserve."
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., has made no changes to the timeline for Barrett's confirmation hearing, set to take place on Oct. 12.
"Supreme Court hearings continue on. Full speed ahead," Graham's spokesman Kevin Bishop told Fox News.
