Media sickens me
Breaking?
“Breaking news: Internet Explorer sucks ass”
What kind of 'oomer is a 98 year old?
Zooming Retro-boomer?
Kavanaugh got mad about lies destroying his name; Ginsburg on the other hand uses her seat as a legislative tool.
Remind me which one is unfit?
Wow, he called out Soros directly
on the bus headed to DC!
they gave us the rundown of dealing with protesters and the press and led us off with a prayer now that the bus is moving
Cloture to pass, Collins and Flake voted yes
Manchin voted yes, Murkowski voted no.
Wew lad
Worst-case scenario really
We depended on a Democrat.
But he’s the only one that voted for him, right?
Yep.
If he had voted "No," then Pence would've been the tiebreaker.
This is incredibly tense
So it was 51-49 then?
yep
50-50 seems to be an incredibly likely option
Murkowski, who's been officially disavowed by the GOP, but clings to her office with eskimo support, thought Kavanaugh might hurt her constituency.
A lot of senators in red states are gonna get hurt by this
depends entirely on susan collins
she's giving a statement in 4 hours
if she's No, then I bet manchin votes No
also in news that doesn't directly matter for this: sinema says she would have been a no, while Bredesen says he would have been a yes
When’s the actual vote?
Hopefully Murkowski switches to yes.
Though she's an enemy, she's probably going to end up retiring.
We are still stuck with her for at least 4 more years
Yeah, and she's in her sixties.
She's been in office for so long people have mostly forgotten that she became a Senator because her own father appointed her.
When did she get elected
2004/2010/2016
She'll be up for reelection in 2022.
