And being former Senators they are allowed on the floor of the Senate anytime so they are gold for the lobbying companies.

💣💥 Republicans/impunity. They control the White House, Cabinet, the House, Senate, SCOTUS, and as of 4a Eastern, the DOJ. Democrats are still trying to be lawful Representatives operating within the Constitution; its working but its slow. Judges are WAY too late; we need immediate support.

So much in it for them if they cooperate and so much hell to pay if they don't. Every capitulation tips the scales of influence and power toward a group of ideologues who should always have been marginalized.

Not ignored, just an already lost cause. Remember two of them are Cornyn and Tillis. They easily could have agreed to pass him through committee and then voted no.

In that case, he was more courageous than the others who know better and say nothing publicly.

Republicans are nazis

LOCK THEM UP

Handfull, try 1 or 2

they're finger puppets of fascist oligarchs

Republicans in Congress are a frightful bunch of spineless cowards who have lost their moral compasses ... and I still wonder if their families are under threat, being held hostage. Because failing that, there is simply absolutely no excuse for their blind obedience to this corrupt regime.

The J6 impeachment trial was a wake-up call.

For a long time now it has been obvious they are over the whole “democracy thing”. They’d rather RULE than govern. They are all in on the ushering in an authoritarian.

There are 15 cities in the USA with a higher population than the state of South Dakota. J Thune has no idea how to lead and should not be in charge of that body. Even really dead fake Mitch could do better

The GOP is stuck: Trump's a sinking ship, but the GOP has got no other ship to jump to. They lose Trump voters, they won't have any other voters. It's sad to be GOP.

Today is the anniversary of Nixon’s resignation. I was 21 and it was such a big surprise. Watergate had dragged on so long it felt like nothing would ever break. And then suddenly it did. I’m 100% sure that could never happen now.

Tigers could choose to stop eating and starve to death too but it doesn’t really bear mentioning

Republicans are snakes 🐍 🙄.....but you knew they were snakes 🐍 before you took them in....Donnie John tRump.

put in other words, Republicans in Congress just voted in favor of a constitutional crisis. at this point incumbency itself is an impeachable offense.

This is unfortunately a category error. There is nothing for them to stop because everything traitor trump is doing aligns with the goals and agenda of the treasonous rape-publican party.

I notice how they were so upset at the slush fund BS, but ignored that he totally ignored and insulted the Epstein survivors and the federal law they passed unanimously which he has violated every day for the past 8+ months.

The GOP owns all of this nonsense.

Blanche's confirmation just underscores the fact that criminals protect criminals. At this rate the international pedophillic child-sex trafficking and money laundering ring will stay intact forever. Donald's unborn grandchildren will be able to use the ring in the future if they want.

There was a time NOT TOO LONG AGO..when Democrats occupied that same space...

They are traitors to democracy.

They could have prevented the chaos, but chose to remain silent. What the US needs is a Congress that dares to take responsibility, not a Republican Party that stands idly by.

The Republican party wants all this to happen. Why would they stop it? They live in fear of the orange idiot and are getting richer if they just lay back and let it happen.

Republicans are 100% LOYAL to the Trump Corrupt Regime. That means they have NO LOYALTY to America, Americans & our DEMOCRACY. Don’t expect Republicans to choose AMERICA or AMERICANS over their ONLY LOYALTY which is the Trump Corrupt Regime. They will LIE & DENY & SUPPORT Trump over everything!

Yes. Five people could put this whole mess that is making the world a more miserable place behind us. They have been threatened and bribed into submission. Pretty easily.

Why? They are the ones destroying our country, but why??????

It’s all about the Benjamins. Keep an eye on the sweetheart private sector deals waiting for Cassidy and Tillis.

Yeah, I don't think blaming Republicans for being Republicans means a whole lot when our pathetically mealy-mouthed, AIPAC-owned Bidenista-Schumerian "leaders" are such weak, abject cowards who have no fight in them whatsoever. Just tragic disgraces that make Vichy French look like super heroes.

How many of them are compromised? Thats the real question.

They choose not to because the end game is to never give up power. The midterms will let us know for sure what their plan is. "Buckle up" as the saying goes!

Because they support it, there's no other conclusion that can be drawn. They will fake being opposed to it for some voters but at the end of the day they fully support everything that's happening and we need to make that stick. It's not just cowardice, they are pure evil.

Their American Mussolini needs his own consigliere and they're happy to oblige. They'll never stop Trump because he's what they've wanted for decades: a fascist that will undermine democracy.

And a handful of democrats could have stopped the Biden administration from opening the border and letting 20 million illegal invaders enter the country but they simply chose not to.

It’s heartbreaking. The past decent Republicans who have served America and the American people with dignity, patriotism and a willingness to work with Democrats must be turning in their graves at what the current group of traitors to democracy, rule of law, the Constitution and Americans are doing.

Isn't there a way that when the rule of law isn't followed that there are consequences? Like blanche isn't king Isn't there a mechanism to get him out if he doesn't follow the law

They're making a lot of money from getting paid off to rubber stamp all of it. Unregulated capitalism and democracy make for a bad brew.

They are afraid of Trump. But they should be afraid of the people.

It also signals that the Trump/MAGA takeover of the GOP is total and complete. As an #Indiana resident I often think of Sen Todd Young. He was a pre-Trump "normal" Republican who was moderate, thoughtful, and bipartisan. Now he votes for this insanity 💯%. Basically no different than Sen Tuberville.

The attorney general of the US is a consigliere.

Every Republican in Congress is protecting Epstein's Pedophile ring. The evidence is so clear that not one of them can defend themselves against this fact. Evil, disgusting and immoral every one of them.

History will not be kind. People should never forget their complicity.

They'd rather help protect a constitutionally-disqualified pedophile than follow their oaths of office.

Also, I believe a majority of the Republican Congress have no idea how to fix all the chaos & disruption. The intellectual capital they once had access to is gone with all the firing of seasoned civil servants. They also recognize that the Cabinet members they confirmed are incompetent.

They are never going to stop it. They are in too deep. Also they have given up all their power/decision making to him. If they were to impeach him or take over responsibility for this mess they would have to own it. They don’t want those smoking turds. They would rather drop in the Dems lap in Nov

They're afraid of Donnie's flying monkeys.

Exactly. I don’t ever want to hear them call this vote a mistake.

All republicans are terrorists

They would much rather protect pedophiles. I wonder why...

Truth

🎯

Never. Ever. Vote. Republican. Period. It’s that simple. The entire party was, is, and will always be working against the best interests of most Americans. Every damn one of them.

Prediction: A year from now “Abolish the DOJ” will enjoy the same levels of support that “Abolish ICE” does today. We CANNOT have as powerful an entity as the Department of Justice existing if it cannot be constrained. As harmful as it would be, we are better off without it.

Those republicans want a Christian nationalist nation. Goodbye individual freedom. Thanks to maga, they destroyed our wonderful country!

Point 2. Voters who stay at home during elections.

Why are they afraid to cross him? Several are not running for reelection, including Cornyn, Tillis and Cassidy. He ruined their careers and they are still afraid of crossing him. They are obviously not afraid of a primary. If they don’t seek law enforcement, I won’t feel sorry for them.

Yes, I handful. Exactly. If we make it through this institutional collapse, not to mention, environmental collapse, history will judge them all harshly.

It’s the Republicans. It’s not a handful. The party is spoiled bc of the festering rot in the center.

The Republican Party needs to be removed like a tumor.

Another truth: the polls about trump cratering in support are wrong. Votes, including those in Congress, are the only meaningful and accurate polls.

What Blanche represents: - an absolute cover up and full support of his client who committed horrible crimes against children and woman - a key player in the midterms cheat (coup), on voter suppression and overturning results they don’t like - takes orders from Trump - “I love you, sir” Disaster!

the party is rotten
