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.

The Democratic Party will not succeed if it values loyalty to Israel over reality. It isn't just young progressives or Democratic Socialists who recognize the danger and horror inherent in supporting a war criminal. Old Dem that I am, I would gladly vote for El-Sayed. www.ms.now/opinion/mich...

FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.” The settlement says any changes must be agreed to by ALL parties, not just Todd. This “rescission” isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.

Call me crazy, but I really don't believe you have to be either an ineffectual centrist Democrat or an accusative Bernie Bro obnoxious Democrat in order to be a strong and committed Democrat who wants to defeat the GOP. You know, the middle ground between weakling and bully. 😎
