Here’s what I can’t get. If you’re too chickenshit, or too greedy for a bag of handouts, or too terrified of getting doxxed or having your life threatened to uphold the Constitution and the institutions of a republic you swore an oath to uphold — why the fuck are you in Congress anyway? Surely some other lucrative ass-kissing position in the private sector exists for you to wheedle your way into?
Joni Ernst should be asked: was keeping her name out of the headlines in association with a sordid scandal that is one of Washington's worst-kept secrets really worth selling out her country? She hinted she wouldn't vote to confirm: the Elon crew hinted that unless she changed her mind they'd spill the open secret into the headlines, and her conservative Christian voting base back home in Iowa might not be as tolerant as her inside-the-Beltway cronies. Joni flipped.
Thom Tillis should be asked if this insult to US sovereignty and security was really a price worth paying, simply for the privilege of retaining Thom Tillis in the US Senate. He seems to have felt it was worth turning his back on his own awareness of Hegseth's unfitness, abandoning a witness to whom he had personally promised protection, and betraying the American people (and the constitution)--all in order to protect himself from a threatened Elon-financed primary challenge, so he could cling with all talons extended to his cushy little sinecure. Thom flipped.
As for Susan--oh please. Spare us. She's been flipping since 1996. She plays moderate, but she's a grifter and an opportunist. She's a woman who used vile antisemitic tactics to win her last election. She's the Republican front woman for the worst judicial nominations in the history of the Supreme Court. Why is anyone surprised by Susan, ever?
This cartoon needs to flood the states for these three Trump lackeys on highway billboards and posters everywhere the eye can see to remind their constituents who and what they voted for.
That you great comment and I can read it, unlike the big which is too small to read on phone and blown up is still impossible. Bet I'm the standard demographic, 68 yo.

May I cut and paste this to my South Carolina rep and senators?
Will not dox you.

You should send this comment to these unwholesome three. Well done.
Since our senators have no foresight, they compensate with amnesia.
Such a long list to choose from... but these three, wow, what a great capture of their expressions and a moment you can really feel. Thank you.
Yes. Murkowski was crying about Alaskan layoffs. What did these suck-ups expect?
Don’t forget Bill Cassidy, who never should have let RFK jr out of committee
