Let's hope so.

[canceled.2021.2]

Right now Tester and Donnelly are No’s

It could be three reasons why

1) they think they have their races locked up and they are bullet proof - unlikely

2) they think voters will forget come Election Day and that they are popular enough to withstand it - unlikely

3) they know they are going to lose their respective races and figure it is safer not to buck the liberal wing because they will need jobs once they get voted out. No point voting yes if they don’t believe it will help them with voters

Chalk up two seats for GOP

democrats are leaning on flake hard right now. this is getting scary. they pulled him into a private room and they have been lobbying him heavily.

[BRUTALITOPS]

I think it's a mistake to assume there will be Dem crossovers.

assume the worst hope for the best

[Lightbringer]

assume the worst hope for the best

^^^ absolutely.

Flake calls for an FBI probe.



Flake is an asshole, a two-faced back-stabbing asshole. This could delay the vote for a week or more.

[tsuke]

on the positive side at least its out of comittee.

[tsuke]

ok so i saw this and i think flake may not be as big a traitor as we think.

"Seven Members of the Committee, actually present, shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of discussing business. Nine Members of the Committee, including at least two Members of the minority, shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of transacting business. No bill, matter, or nomination shall be ordered reported from the Committee, however, unless a majority of the Committee is actually present at the time such action is taken and a majority of those present support the action taken."

basically with the democrats walking out there was no quorom. Flake got it out of comittee and onto a straight vote in exchange for a one week delay.

Maybe, maybe not. But he sure changed his mind in a hurry, didn't he? I don't trust him.

Well a majority is 11

There are 21 members f committee. 11 republican and 10 democrat. I don’t buy this

Flake is a pussy

[canceled.2021.2]

Look we need to think about playing long ball here

What is the demalquedacrats strategy? They want to stall stall stall until the election

The reality is that as long as cunts like Murkowski, Collins and Flake are around Grassley and McConnell are powerless to stop he stalling.

You have to face reality. They will never support this. These fuckheads will always side with the liberals and try to make it sound like they are doing it for Kavanaugh

We have to play long ball.

We help Trump defeat EVERY democrat running for Senate in a red state. Go scorched earth on them

Then we get to 57 seats after November election and we tell the democrats and fuckstick Collins, Murkowski and Flake. Nice try, but here is the deal. You confirm Kavanaugh now or in January I am replacing him with Barrett and you REALLY know how she feels about Roe

You can’t negotiate on their terms. They are not negotiating in good faith. Anyone thinking that this is over after the FBI investigation is deluding themselves. Then the democrats will call for ANOTHER week to review the findings. Then they will call for another week to have another hearing. And all along the way Flake, Murkowski ad Collins will agree. What can McConnell do? Nothing

read the quoted bit it comes directly from the rules of the judiciary comittee. Including 2 members of the minority. Without that portion there is no quorom.

Barrett is going to replace Ginsberg.

When Ginsburg kicks, Barret should be the next nomination; but then, I'm sure the DNC will find some guy to say she grabbed his crotch in HS.

It is interesting that JPP NeverTrumpers have been fairly quiet about the whole Kavanaugh thing.

I wonder if they are like Flake and so consumed with Trump hatred that they would rather lose the seat

I think Wacko and Threedee would rather see the GOP lose the House and Senate so they can say “I told you so”

I get demalquedacrats because I know them better than they know themselves. But I will never get NeverTrumpers
