You could have voted no on Blanche. Idiot.

#RepublicanMedicareCuts they own them. Not just this recent abolishment of Medicare Part D, but all the cuts. Including to ACA, Medicaid, and any improvements to our American healthcare. Why are they doing this? It benefits their corporate and wealthy donors. Vote for Democrats!
This reminds me of Susan Collins saying that she believed Brett Kavanaugh when he promised not to go after Roe. Trump rejected Cornyn publically, but Cornyn still grovels at his feet. Disgusting.
You didn’t have to take his word or that bull shit document that does nothing but speak in leaglese with no guarantees! You could have voted NO!
The “alternative” was to stand up for what you know to be true, based on past events! Blanche will say & do anything to become the next attorney general! Republicans do this all the time, pit 2 members against the party, only to capitulate at the last minute! Look at Collins and Murkowski!
The WEBBIX@webbix.bsky.social · 24h agoWhat Cornyn is saying actually coincides with the thinking of every Republican I’d expect. Every Republican is okay with making a claim in any instance, knowing that the lack of integrity is acceptable amongst them all. Proclaim the best but have no real qualms when the worst occurs. Just an oops.
Bullshit incarnate. This will not stand.

"had no alternative" --- well, you could've voted no, that's an alternative
What is Senator Cornyn going to do if Todd Blanche and the DOJ doesn't live up to his expectations?
“We had no alternative except to take his word for it” is a load of garbage. The alternative was not confirming him. He absolutely had an alternative. Where is the follow up from the press?

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" 🙃
Whitehouse: "The last Q I'm left with is what's left of this committee? What's left when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has this DOJ been asked what became of the $50k the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our Republican colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil"
🔥 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"

Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
Happy birthday to one of America’s greatest U.S. Presidents, former President Barack Obama! Obama’s presidency, leadership, legacy, scandal free presidency, & high level of ethical integrity stands in stark contrast to the rot, depravity, violence, & corruption of the entire Trump/GOP regime!
I can remember in 2008 the sense of how the arrival of a better America would accompany this man's election. I still believe his message of hope is the right one. It is a strategy. Happy birthday, Mr President!
Republican megadonor Ronald Lauder has closed his checkbook for political donations. In this case it may be due to financial and family considerations, but the ROI for billionaires is gonna need examination.

𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚🚨 51st(actually the 52nd+) person dies because of #ICELawlessness, torture & neglect this year. On 8/1, Edwin Lopez-Cornejo, just 41, died in ICE detention after being brutalized & denied medication by Trump's immigration thugs. It's being done in our name with our taxpayer dollars.
