Gowdy: I talk to senators all the time… The head count is not even 50/50 on one of them. One of them can't even get half the Republican senators. But I will let you guess from our earlier discussion who that might be.

Oh for Gods sake will u all settle down. They are not going to pass the senate and there is no appetite to recess /process them thru. Not going to happen. Too many Senators have careers longer than the 4 years that will be suffered under Trump
Worse then Rapey McForehead is Pete Hegseth. Hegseth is a Militant Christian White Nationalist who thinks the Crusades should be brought back, The 19th Amendment should be overturned, and The Handmaid's Tale should be Non-Fiction! He should NEVER be in charge of our Military!
Stop with the recess appointments. It’s a threat but hard to do and the senators would have to recess out. They are letting trump know he doesn’t have the votes so he will swap out Gaetz
Just a quick question, can Gaetz afford to lose a paycheck for however long his recess appointment might be? Because without confirmation from the Senate he doesn't get paid. That would suit me just fine.
These Senators should be unafraid to reject Trump’s unqualified, dangerous picks. They have more loyal constituents and longer terms, so they’ll outlast Trump and his increasing dementia. Let’s see if they’re as patriotic as they say they are.
This is what I don’t get. They are 50 people. Trump is one person and an old, demented fart at that. Tell him no. Ignore him. Pass a resolution saying “Fuck off, fats.” I do not understand this fear of telling Trump NO. What’s he going to do—throw ketchup? Tweet meanly? Freakin’ wimps.
Hoping Gaetz jumped the shark by resigning from Congress but Trump will create some stupid position for him on the taxpayers dime if the AG doesn’t work out.
I don't believe this. They will get in lock step and confirm him anyway. This is the type of news that got us distracted and ended up in this shitshow! They already showed us who they are - BELIEVE THEM!!!
Ok, so if recess appointments are a forgone conclusion, what can we say or do now to shine a bright, non-relenting light on the grotesque fuckery of it all.
Let’s call out the Senators that at least have a shred of decency.
Call BS now.
I won't judge any nominee on their ideology or "loyalist" to the president-elect... You're not getting a job on this admin without at least some of that. I can only judge on experience/character.
Gov.Noam, Rubio, at least they have some experience.
It is important that voters in the swing states who used mail-in ballots and supported Kamala Harris visit https://vote.org website and verify that their ballots were delivered and counted.
Look, everybody here needs to stop being rational. TFG will just tell Congress that they are no longer a coequal branch of government and installs anyone he wants to,while he demands they go on recess. It’s what his idol Putin would do.
In the end, IMO, all the GOP senators will cave and agree to the recess option. If they did not stand up and impeach Trump after Jan 6, they are not suddenly going to find the courage to go against him now
I’m inferring that they can’t get to 50 with Hegseth or Gabbard and they can’t even get to 50% of GOP on Gaetz. Is that what others are reading into that?
They will still vote yes because they don't want their own skeletons to come out. The GOP is beholden to TFG because he uses blackmail to ensure 'loyalty' and votes for what he wants.
How many times since 2015 have we been assured “top republicans”and “high ranking GOP officials” secretly can’t stand Trump and plan not to obey him? And then they obey him.
I’d say 99.9% of the time.
Nobody is going to save us, least of all Republican senators.
Remember what these guys said right after Jan 6? And remember how they inevitably ended up voting?
Cowards.
They’ll recess so he can appoint them on his own.
I'm betting on the nazi. Since they elected a rapist president, I doubt anyone has issue with pedophilia and rape. Wait. Damnit. I don't know which one.
Then why did Trump give Gaetz a lifeline 2 days before the report was released? Give him a reason to resign so the report is squashed? Wasn’t like that seat was in any danger even if the report came out and he got kicked out of conference. Maybe to avoid the colossal conundrum for speaker to expel?
Big Pharma May save us from RFK Jr Vaccine/Pharma stocks closed lower today and rumor has it they are big donors to Senate republicans
Amy Suskind posted this on FB. Said no way RFK Jr gets confirmed. I’m 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Please just get that chick tulsi out!! We really don’t need someone who constantly justifies and compares us to fucking Russia! I can deal with Rubio but tulsi literally wanted us to bomb Syria and praised Russia for doing it🤢
Oh ffs, I’m thoroughly sick of reports that GOP members are wringing their hands in private but in reality they’ll all vote for these monstrous candidates
And take the political hit from their districts? I think not. Unfortunately, the gop has no backbone anymore. That and a hatred for America unites them behind trump

Don't get me wrong, they're all awful, which is why there is infighting.
Gov.Noam, Rubio, at least they have some experience.
Is up for AG
Un. Fcking. Real
Super hope I'm wrong.
Sigh.
Trump owns the GOP. He will get them to do whatever he wants.
I’d say 99.9% of the time.

Cowards.
They’ll recess so he can appoint them on his own.
quid pro quo
GOD I HATE BRET BAIER......
.......sorry......I'm ok now

I’ve realized that the military and national intelligence will be fucked, but let’s not fuck up with vaccines.
What? Senators thought they would have a say in a Trump administration? That's so hilarious!
