Bill Cassidy voted to convict Trump. Then Trump turned against him, endorsed his opponent, and helped end his career. Cassidy owes Trump NOTHING. And yet, on his way out the door, he still can’t find the courage to stand up to him. Why? This is what the complete surrender looks like.

I'll tell you why. Cassidy spoke to Bill Barr before making his decision. Bill Barr is one of the leaders of the Epstein coverup. Barr was the one who got rid of Epstein. Who knows what Barr threatened Cassidy with? Cassidy's vote is part of the ongoing Epstein coverup.

Someone give me one solitary reason why he would continue to do this after he’s out of office. Pretend like I’m five years old and explain it to me. I have a feeling the reasons for his continued capitulation are primarily social (his R friends will turn their backs).

Thank you! Why, indeed ?I’m beginning to think it’s some level of threat aimed at maybe family? They’re old, wealthy and set. They’re not stupid So, why?

Trump has compromising material on them. It’s the only reason they have allowed Trump to do the things he’s done. They are all completely compromised. There are two kinds of people in the US government: Those who want the Epstein Files released, and those who are in the Epstein Files.

I was just thinking about Barr the other day. How he seemed principled in terms of the system and wondering if he was at all horrified at the corruption in the DOJ. I guess the answer is no.

I have no doubt that Cassidy is a coward. But what none of us knows is who has threatened him and in what manner. I find it highly likely that thumbscrews were turned to get several votes.

Thank you. Not for the disturbing assessment, but for broadening my understanding of the sickness we call POWER. Feeling disgusted and helpless.

So sick of spinelss and institutionalized Government.... This anti-hero culture has to go. We need heros again. The Good guys. Courage. Oaths. Honor. Both cream and scum, can rise to the top. We need the Cream back.

Bill Cassiday is 68 years old. I don't see why he would need a job in retirement. He also seems more like he falls in the "able to be Influenced" category vs "able to Influence". I wonder if he is getting pressure from Trump's minions in Louisiana. He lacks moral character.

I think it's the death threats that Republicans get from MAGA terrorists anytime they dare oppose Trump. MAGA is America's #1 terrorist threat (foreign or domestic).

They either fear for their lives Or They just hate dems, gays, liberals, PoC, & s0zIaLiZm so much in their tiny, hate-filled little whyte supremacist klansmen hearts, they just can't give dems a win.

Just a theory... bsky.app/profile/mead...

Logic dictates that Cassidy "saw the light" when it was pointed out to him how much $$brighter$$ his future as a lobbyist looks with that "yes" vote to confirm Turd Blanche.

Complete surrender. What a weak, feckless human. Between RFK and Blanche, Cassidy will have essentially caused lot's of people to suffer and die.

You were a part of that admin before you saw the light Adam. You tell us what’s going on. Tell us the truth. Are they afraid for themselves or their families? Are they being promised jobs or other lucrative positions if they stay quiet?

you summed it up perfectly some time ago, these Republicans have their eye on high paid lobbying jobs, so won't piss off the party on the way out

Best answer I’ve heard is that he did it as a gift to Murkowski and Collins. Who didn’t announce their ‘no’ votes against Blanche until after Cassidy announced his.

Shows that he is all in for a weaponized DOJ, he is voting against the rule of law, and voting for rule by law, where they use the law as a tool to control us while they themselves remain above or exempt from those constraints - at least he hopes to be included amongst that lot

Because that mother fucker wants his payday with a big fat lobbying job next year. If he’s a pariah among the maggots in the senate he won’t be much good as a lobbyist. Nobody will talk to him & they will have hired him for his lifetime access to the senate floor. Plain and simple.

Because like all Republicans, he's a disgusting excuse for a human and a bigot. You understand that you are also a bigot @adamkinzinger.substack.com? Just being in the party makes you complicit in their bigotry and hate. Why you, or any sane person, says they're a republican still is beyond me.

Adam, you served 12 years in Congress—you know Cassidy is playing self-preservation. First, he did a 180 to save his Senate seat by pleasing Trump. That failed. Now he’s protecting his future lobbying payday, Senate connections, and his standing with Republican elites.

It’s interesting that the the GOP is going to confirm him and still manage to muster two “no” votes from senators facing a precarious reelection campaigns. After gleefully abetting the entirety of the Trump crime syndicate, they continue to ensure its smooth operation.

He’s protecting his future job plans. He’s looking to be a lobbyist and continue his accumulation of wealth. Good riddance to another Trump sycophant.

The sycophants supported Hitler in the same exact way we are seeing folks like Cassidy bow down to Trump 👿 Why is a very psychologically and spiritually important question right now 💯

Its because he either wants a job lobbying for the highest bidder after he's out OR he's adding his "hesitation" to his audition reel on one of the MAGA friendly news stations. It isnt hard to see they're tied to trump no matter what so they don't dare offend him.

took the words right out of our mouths: Bill Cassidy voted to confirm RFKjr, knowing Kennedy was anti-vax, anti-science, and now Cassidy obviously seeking to compete for BIGGEST COWARD will vote to confirm Blanche, the most corrupt acting AG in country's history. LA! what's wrong wichu?

You can bet a lot of people have been having discussions with Cassidy, Cornyn, and Tillis about what their life will be like after they leave the senate. Lots of board appointments and a cushy life if they leave via the "right path".

Because tRump has dirt on him. And now his handmaiden runs Justice. Please take a close look at the Executive Order on birthright citizenship, Mr Kinzinger. Maybe it's just me but it looks an awful lot like paving the way to Remove citizenship from persons designated as 'terrorists', like "Antifa"?
