Time to see if the Vote Blue no matter who people will do exactly that in Michigan, or if it’s just an establishment chant. I will, vote blue here in NY even though my preferred candidate for Congress lost their primary and I think the Dem candidate is a tool. But he’s better than the GOP
You could grow a spine and do your damn jobs.

Lying to Congress is a felony, the DOJ should prosecute itself. We know they can.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · yesterdayBREAKING: Sen. Dick Durbin accuses Todd Blanche of lying under oath. He says Blanche told him in his office — with witnesses — that the slush fund was a mistake. In his confirmation hearing, Blanche denied that remark.
This is exactly the reason government is broken. People who run on the idea that government is broken, have no incentive to fix it.

No alternative but to take his word???!!!!???!!! The alternative is to look at past performance and know that you cannot take his word on anything. These people hold important people to less account than I do my 3 year old granddaughter.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayCornyn: "As to the idea it could be revived in the future, I think it's highly unlikely that could happen without the cooperation of the DOJ. And I think Mr Blanche gave us the assurances that it was dead and would not be revived and in this case we have no alternative but to take his word" 🙃
I gave him the low bar of this one thing, which he didn't really do, but I trust him that nothing else he has done or is doing, or is going to do will be bad against all of the available data that says otherwise. I'm John Cornyn

I’ve been waiting on the Mitch McConnell death announcement all day.
The Bar is SOOOOOOO low for Cornyn and Tillis to vote for Blanche. I expect more from my 3 year old granddaughter than they do from Blanche. It's absolutely appalling that we allow these people to govern us.
Max Miller released audio recordings of conversations he has with his ex wife. In one of them, she accuses him of clandestinely recording their conversations. “I have never recorded our conversations” he says, while recording their conversation. This is domestic violence. Ask me how I know.
Neither Miller nor Moreno are fit to serve. Dems should be relentlessly jumping on this for this cycle. Who is running against them?
Was cyclops modeled after Infantino? Turn his face sideways and eliminate an eye, he’s cyclops
What pirro’s odds of being fired on Monday according to Kalshi?

Remembering one of my favorite poets, Jim Carroll, on the anniversary of his birth in 1949. 🎂 American author, poet, and punk musician. Carroll was best known for his 1978 autobiographical work, 'The Basketball Diaries.'
Stop electing people who have no stake in the future. Elect the youth.
Rachel@slightlycaustic.bsky.social · 5d agoIt’s interesting that people who will be dead get to decide to ignore climate change and ruin the world for people who will still be alive.
Unfortunately because of apathy and ignorance, if those 34% show up to vote, he wins because half of the 66% stay home.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.CNN: "The president's overall approval rating now stands at just 34%. That matches his career low following the January 6 insurrection."
The Democratic establishment watched the former governor of New York lose to a random socialist legislator last year and decided to learn absolutely nothing from that
Repercussions for exercising a Constitutional right. The fifth amendment of the Bill of Rights. This is the GOP who say they love the Constitution.
Paul says Fauci will face ‘repercussions’ for taking the Fifth. That could get complicated.
The Kentucky senator called for a vote next week on contempt of Congress. President Joe Biden last year granted his former top health official a preemptive pardon.

I just had a voter call and ask me why they didn't know about last night's Stonegarden vote. I said because the media didn't cover it. Only one outlet did after the vote. People want to know what's going on in legislative bodies before votes occur!
I hope Corbin keeps moving the goal posts get get more and more consolations and then still votes no. Nit holding my breath, but he has nothing to lose.
