You know what to do, people. Vote them out, they’re not on your side.
You can’t, at least not yet. They are all either not on the ballot in the midterms (because their term is longer), or have already announced retirement. They are betting on all this blowing over before they have to ask for votes again.
Yup. While people are outraged at the few token Dem Senators who voted with Republicans those same people are totes OK with all the closed door dealing that got this vote to happen.
Just in time for Senate vacation is just a coincidence and just bad optics.
Republicans follow orders and fall in line. Democrats are supposed to not do that. But they keep doing so. Just like last time when train workers asked for help.
Kaine’s a giant piece of shit, and has been since he was DNC chair, and when he got the payback of being Clinton’s VP pick as payoff for running a corrupt DNC.
All those shitty neolibs aren’t going to stay in office, they only got to office by playing shitty politics. And now they don’t have a corrupt DNC to back them in primaries.
We’re already seeing some “retire”, but I think some are going to Cuomo and essentially become republicans. They never stood for anything except personal power, so they won’t have any qualms changing the letter by their name.

What I’m hearing is that we need to threaten the rest of the Democrats for failing to whip them.

Durbin is retiring so he doesn’t give a shit.
Absolutely infuriating
NH must now change its motto from “live free or die” to “die (sorry not sorry)”
