Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

I do not understand how any Republican could possibly win an election in November! 🇨🇦 No DM
The biggest cost Trump is imposing on us is the cost of doing nothing about three worsening crises that threaten the very survival of America and the world: climate change, AI, and widening inequality.
The Biggest Cost of Trump

Justice in America has officially died, the police state has arrived..
From Stuart Greenberg: GOP Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis are assholes!! If they really wanted to do the right thing, they’d use their new found power to get all the Epstein Files released before voting to advance Todd Blanche. Instead they roll over, sit up and perform on cue.
Trump wants to sue people who call him a pedophile, but he can’t because the discovery process would expose him as a pedophile. Conclusion: he is a pedophile. Period.

"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."
Don’t call them ICE detention centers. Call them camps | John Washington
I’ve spent a decade reporting on immigration enforcement. The word ‘camp’ best captures the political function of these facilities

What I've learned watching this sh!t show... If you let those who commit the most vile crimes walk,they will in deed destroy the whole world
There's something colossally fucked up about a guy who never served or sacrificed spending billions in taxpayer money on unnecessary wars that cause tremendous loss of life while he fusses with his goofy hair and makeup and then goes golfing... While complaining endlessly. And is a pedo-rapist.
Considering how badly Covid was mishandled, they're probably going to regret the decision to make Fauci's personal diary and journal public. We're going to see how it was handled from the insider, from Fauci's point of view... based on you know...science.
Reminder: everyone on American soil, whether they were born here or not, has the right to due process. Here’s everything you need to know.
Let’s face it McConnell is in an induced coma or dead and they are keeping him alive!
France calls out the U.S. at a UN meeting: “The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore. Today, it stands alongside North Korea, Nicaragua, Mali and Russia. Isolated. And the world no longer listens to it.” U.S. representatives stormed out of the meeting. Well said France! 👏🏼🇫🇷👏🏼
Bout damn time!REP. LARSON SAID: When you’re not able to uphold the Constitution, are careless with classified information, and treat our military like a video game while American troops are dying and civilians are being killed, you've lost the right to lecture ANYONE about patriotism or leadership.
Should be a bigger story— “Alexandra Bravo, prosecutor investigating 🇺🇸 strikes on 3 Ecuadorian boats and survivor accounts of torture/kidnapping, shot dead… hitman on a black motorcycle opened fire… Bravo’s sister jumped to protect her, also killed…” www.dropsitenews.com/p/prosecutor...
It’s crazy to me this isn’t a daily refrain from Democrats.
REGARDLESS of Cornyn’s “demand,” Blanche still shouldn’t be confirmed as US AG because he & Trump tried to pull a fast one with this bogus IRS, slush fund & extension of immunity to Trump & his sons IN THE 1ST PLACE! It’s clearly unethical & demonstrates Blanche should be DISQUALIFIED & DISBARRED!
Hey I know inflation is out of control and a lot of folks can’t afford basic necessities, but at least we’re tackling waste fraud and abuse by buying… *checks notes* 250 Escalades for the government.
