It's not bad enough that Republicans do it. Sen. Whitehouse surprises me. Durbin and Coons do not. It's the good ole boys club.
In April, for ex, Demand Justice lashed 3 Dems on the judiciary panel who voted to advance S.C. district judge nominee Sheria Clarke despite her refusal to say Biden won in 2020 or that the U.S. Capitol was attacked on Jan. 6, 2021. Those 3 Dems: Dick Durbin Sheldon Whitehouse Chris Coons

Raw Story: Joyce Vance on Trump wanting SCOTUS to rule that USPS can create a national voter database & only send mail-in ballots to people on that list: “Trump filed the appeal less than 100 days before the midterms, which means he's concerned about losing power. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
🔥 Here's Whitehouse's entire remarkable speech opposing Blanche: "What's left of this committee when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has DOJ been asked what became of the $50k that the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our R colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, & speak no evil."
Whitehouse on Blanche: "Today is a sad and embarrassing day"

Schiff: "He waited until he became president. Why did he wait to bring this $10b lawsuit? He waited so he would have the power of the presidency to leverage the IRS and DOJ to make him more money!"
MASSIVE COVERUP: Major financial institutions paid hundreds of millions of dollars to resolve civil claims, while lawmakers and survivors continue challenging the administration’s handling of Epstein records. #TheCityBrief #Epstein
Cornyn lost his primary. Tillis is walking. Neither has a donor, a term, or a future to protect. Both caved before lunch Monday. www.JackHopkinsNow.com
To be clear, there were never “Republican holdouts,” the fascists were always going to vote in favor of placing personal crook Todd Blanche in the office of Attorney General permanently because criminals will always elevate criminals.
🧵Blanche "rescinded" the $1.8 billion fund for Trump's allies to win confirmation. But the settlement says it can be modified only with all parties' written agreement, Trump, his sons, the Trump Organization. Only Blanche signed. A conservative legal analyst says the fund can be revived at any time.
"First, Democratic senators should kill the deal on the CR. Then they need to use the Blanche confirmation to highlight that a GOP Senate will be a rubber stamp for Trump. Blanche may get confirmed. But Democrats can turn that sour lemon into sweet, tart lemonade." www.thebulwark.com/p/gop-sheep-...
GOP Sheep to the Midterm Slaughter
Todd Blanche’s confirmation will be bad for the country—and a gift to Senate Democrats.

BREAKING: I'm suing to stop Donald Trump's newest illegal tariffs. Everything is too damn expensive. And, instead of helping struggling American families, Trump is imposing new unlawful tariffs that will be passed onto you. I'm fighting to lower costs for Massachusetts residents.

Because the above crooks are idiots
as millions of americans this year have had to give up their health insurance **specifically because** trump and republicans made the decision to send premiums skyrocketing, the administration now says everyone who's lost coverage must have been committing fraud: www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-...
The whole point of the Bill of Rights is to protect the only true minority - the individual. It limits the governments power to harm the individual. The whole constitution is designed to limit the governments power.
The Blanche statement that likely now secures his confirmation does nothing to abrogate Trump’s rights in the slush fund and perpetuates the outrageous tax amnesty for Trump and family, which the American people are paying for without getting anything in return. It’s all lip service and a travesty.
They subpoenaed an 85-year-old man who has testified before Congress 250 times. They published his private diary first. Then screamed profanity at him for not talking. Six years of investigation. Zero charges. This is what having nothing looks like. www.JackHopkinsNow.com
