Congressional Republicans vs the wannabe King. @punchbowlnews.bsky.social @muellershewrote.com @chrislhayes.bsky.social

Now we have a fight on our hands. Maybe. @muellershewrote.com @punchbowlnews.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social

Cornyn is protecting those senators and taking one for the team

That was tough talk for someone who will not rein in the President. Cowardly Cornyn.

So Trump thinks he'll be in a stronger position after the midterms? Looks like he's thrown Blanche under a bus.

Wow!!!!!

This is the Pupa stage of a Republican. Where they finally get a spine upon leaving office like they never did while in.

😲

*Woke Cornyn.

Cornyn only gained a spine when the Trump-led primary meant he lost his seat.

Todd Blanche is a sycophant and should not be confirmed! Impeach-Convict-Remove #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Glad he finally grew some balls but might be too late…..

*Limited to Senator Tillis and myself* (Grammar Correct AI)

…Truth inexorably finds a path to light.

Yet another example of how Trump thinks... He's master at being a piece of shit...

He’s right. The two guys who aren’t running for reelection are giving cover to the others so they can win theirs.

Good chance Donnie has joined Mitch by that time🤪

That’s the thing about Trump and correspondingly, what’s infuriating about republicans, he is open about his corruption and deceit and they don’t care.

Really? Does Cornyn really think Senators that aren't headed out the door will have the balls to oppose Trump? After all, Cornyn & Tillis didn't have the balls until they were voted out.

If I'm not mistaken, Blanches' "Acting" status runs out in December... BEFORE Tillis and Cornyn are gone.

Cornyn: He rescinded the order, not the deal. The deal is NOT rescinded and can only be charged if all parties agree to the changes. Trump is one of those people. Smoke and mirrors, bait n switch. This administration is totally corrupt.Blanche is still protecting Trumps raping kids, or worse.

🙄🙄

Or be forever known as Trump’s bitch.

That slush fund is the most corrupt thing any president has ever tried to do. But I hear you. It's disgraceful that no investigations have been started on any of the pedophiles in the epstein files by Blanche.

Thank you

👍

I knew that but when you call them and ask them to do the right thing, you can't tell them they lack a conscience.

He should not be allowed to remain in the job

He helped create this monster

Let the children fight

Trump also cannot recognize his power will be rapidly diminishing beyond the midterms.

He will fold like a cheap suit.

Just goes to show you… the best weapon against a bitter old man is another one.

Hmmm... oh, he realizes others might have concerns, but that has very rarely stopped the vast majority of his minions from doing what he wants despite their, ahem, concerns...

CAN THE REST OF US BE IMMUNE FROM TAX AUDITS?? AND OUR KIDS, ALSO FOREVER??? THIS MEANS THEY NEVER HAVE TO PAY ANY TAXES AT ALL!!!! so frigging corrupt.

LOL - dipshit thinks he's going to hold the Senate. Boy is he in for a rude awakening in about 95 days.

But there is a time limit for someone in an Acting position in the Cabinet. Hopefully, Blanche will exceed it and no longer be eligible.

ie. After he steals the midterms

Blanche has so much baggage.His baggage has baggage.

Next year, Hakeem Jeffries will probably be president.....

Let’s hope this is not just lots of talk…show us, stand up and block the confirmation of Trump’s personal “consigliere”…unfit on multiple levels!

Hopefully some of those elected officials are going to get a very apparent wake up call when they lose their seats in Congress in November. It’s not just the lame ducks whose time will be up after the midterms

Also it's possible Cornyn and Tillis are replaced by Dems so good luck with that buddy.

Shhhhh don’t tell him Let him hold the nom till next year

Oh really? Then maybe the rest of these shitty cowards could SPEAK THE FUCK UP

Everything with these fascists is a lie or a workaround. F***ers.

Hopefully by March 2027 Mike Johnson will be out of office & Trump will be impeached and convicted, then indicted by Jack Smith in 2 jurisdictions!!! Then America can begin getting rid of the rest of this CORRUPT Administration!!! Look out JD Vance! You will be next on our list!

No leads in the Epstein files? Yet he’s got that hot seashell case. What a joke.

Coryn grows a backbone and trump (considering his health, mistakenly) thinks he will live that long. Two men with two very different expiration dates.

I see. Sowing doubt. Here comes another Trump tirade.

Neither do I!

yeah, but are any of those losers willing to vote like it?

Oh, NOW that Trump's betrayed him and he's become a lame duck, this piece of shit has decided to grow a pair.

With any luck, the Dems will hold the Senate majority next year

Arrogance and massive stupidity are not a good combination….donnie

Suddenly, and Magically ... OMG ...OMG....OMG... That Ole' TEXAS Judge, Senator John Cornyn seems to have discovered what he used to call, his balls .... Your move, ORANGE SATAN ....

At the rate Rump is deteriorating, he might not be around to try again. And then what will Toad Blanche do for a job?

Trump knows Texas will cheat their election

Zero Credibility

Donny's deteriorating mind seems to have also lost track of the fact that Cornyn and Tillis being gone, will coincide with a new Congress being sworn in when he probably won't have the majority any longer!! Or a spineless, cowardly Speaker!! #DementiaDon #NotMyPresident #PedophileInChief

Trumps arrogance is always showing

Uh, Trump thinks he'll be in better shape politically after the Nov midterms? Dream on old man. You'll be the lamest duck the world has ever seen. Nothing like it quack quack quack.

Nonsense. His confirmation is assured, despite the silly game that Cornyn and Tillis are playing. Ultimately, like the good little MAGAts they are, they will vote to confirm him, even if it revealed that he hosts baby murdering cannibal partys at his home every Friday night.

So what if Trump pulls the nomination and refuses to nominate anyone for AG? Does this mean acting AG Blanche thru his term and effectively having his personal lawyer as AG ?

Yeah, others have issues, but would still vote for Blanche fearing the backlash.

"POTUS" is according to Rex Tillerson, "a fucking moron" .. looks like Tillis and Cornyn can play the coercion game too .. because the last thing they need is to have a convicted felon's personal attorney coming after them with criminal charges later? . . Trump is in a 'box' and he KNOWS it ..

👀🍿

That's the most Cornyn has had to say since he talked smack about COVID ..

I don't think Senators Talarico and Cooper are gonna be down with it either.

😳

He would if were placed on the judiciary committee.

YEA BUT HE'LL PROBALY BE GONE TOO.

Truth

It's funny that he thinks he's gonna have any power next year.

youtu.be/u0FhCD3b67I?...

🎯

America better wake up and realize none of us should.

There is no "settlement." The judge made that very clear in her ruling.

Love to see it!

Speaking of “Gone next year…”. 😈

Impeach-Convict-Remove #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Oh, a republican is "concerned"! I'm sure that will mean something. Collins has been concerned so many times.

Spines are growing again?

Exactly.....💯

Let’s hope he backs that up and then some.

What are the odds that Don the Con will be gone next year?

And, that is why it is so, so important to take the Senate in November.

So the tax issue is the only thing holding up a “Yea” vote for these guys? Excuse me, but, Epstein files? Hello??

I hope other Senators will come out against it and vote it down

I've contacted my Senators, not that they will do anything to stop him from being nominated. They are bootlicking assholes. Fuck I never used to swear. #grassley #ernst

Nothing here is a layup. Don't assume we won't see ICE agents and militia at voting stations to intimidate people. Or confiscation of ballots. The administration is continuing to swing sledgehammers at the pillars of democracy.

More importantly, he just stays “acting” for another few months.

Ruh row . . .

Nothing but “D” for me. Hey that rhymes

Funny thing is, if that’s what they’re doing, they’re failing at it. Yugely.

They only grow something resembling a spine when they’re about to leave office.

One of many reasons. Republicans in Congress should also put a stop to the Trump family graft, which has enriched Trump by $2 billion this term alone.

Sure, wait until next year. There's every chance that felon-rapist-traitor-pedopresident isn't going to make it to next year. He's in only slightly better shape than McConnell 😆

He succeeded. Those petty men are prepared to walk under their leader’s petty legs and ultimately find themselves dishonourable graves. A pox on all their houses.

Can we assume that a large donation (two commas) has just been pledged to a Cornyn campaign fund he will be able to access shortly as a civilian.

This gives me something akin to hope.

yeah. you know what else is going to be gone after the midterms ... a republican't majority in the senate. gone in a blue flash

He really is demented, or has the midterms rigged up the wazoo.

Everyone when he threatens to delay Blanche
