Daily Signal senior contributor Genevieve Wood discusses the upcoming battle to decide who will replace the late Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court with Breitbart News Daily host Stephen K. Bannon on Sirius XM.

They said there are not going to be any hearings, said Wood on the coming battle between the White House and the Senate over confirming a replacement for the late Associate Justice Antonin Scalia.

The full interview can be heard below. Breitbart News Daily airs from 6AM-9AM EST on Sirius XM Patriot channel 125.
