Sorry, Republicans have no spine, no integrity and no patriotism

lucyloulou.bsky.social•80 days ago

What they should and will do are two different things.

larchris.bsky.social•81 days ago

Official Republican response...Sadly

consensus-reality.bsky.social•80 days ago

What.. no happy hour?

velvetvirgo.bsky.social•80 days ago

I agree wholeheartedly

vivian27.bsky.social•80 days ago

Definitely yes

trumpisanazi.bsky.social•80 days ago

Come on, you think I'd let him get nominated? I got this 😎

h1buck.bsky.social•80 days ago

Agreed !

newyorka.bsky.social•80 days ago

Patel too

irmagooddoggie.bsky.social•80 days ago

Or....call your Senators - on the phone 📱☎️ - and tell them to vote no on the Hegseth nomination.

We have to be way more engaged in the political process and hold our members of congress accountable.

otmunderground.bsky.social•80 days ago

The Republicans aren't here to hear you, and they don't listen anyways.

lost-wages-joe.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yeah, they all SHOULD, but Tommy Tuberville? Ted Cruz? Little Marco? Skelator? We'll see...

ericabel.bsky.social•80 days ago

Duh…

mell1234.bsky.social•80 days ago

It should be no to all of them.

catsandponies.bsky.social•80 days ago

Gabbard and RFK are more dangerous

charlotte-spicer.bsky.social•80 days ago

If they don't, we should do something about it.

Pass it on.

I'm done.

bitchinpost.bsky.social•80 days ago

I’m going to be looking at every name that voted “yes”.
Fellow rapists, drunks, misogynists?

bearatone75.bsky.social•80 days ago

Good luck with that.

flablues.bsky.social•80 days ago

And the majority of these people

Dude is an arrogant narcissist… why he thinks he is remotely qualified to run the US military with the largest federal budget, largest manpower organization and in the nuclear chain is beyond me … having served is not a qualifier in itself… if he was a true patriot he would of told Trump NO!

youtwitface.bsky.social•80 days ago

EVERY one of them.

tadhgs.bsky.social•80 days ago

Agreed 100%! Hegseth’s track record screams unfit for such a critical role. This isn’t about party lines; it’s about competence and integrity. Every Senator SHOULD do the right thing and vote NO. Leadership demands better.

lindascarlett.bsky.social•80 days ago

Pass it on.

bullit-n-i.bsky.social•80 days ago

If they vote "YES", I want their names!

sendmusk2mars.bsky.social•80 days ago

What if they vote maybe instead. He hasn’t had enough time to promote himself yet.

dml1969.bsky.social•80 days ago

Doubtful it will ever get to a vote!

driver9.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yes. And on the Gabbard nomination. And on the RFK Jr. nomination. And on the Patel nomination.

savta28.bsky.social•80 days ago

And Patel! We must be very loud every hour and shout out their failures, one nominee at a time.

kimmurphy100.bsky.social•81 days ago

I don’t think he’ll get to nomination.

He has that Matt Gaetz aura.

olduncledave.bsky.social•80 days ago

And Gabbard, Patel, and Kennedy

johnlaroe.bsky.social•80 days ago

And literally any other nomination coming out of Trump's White House until there's a basic level of sanity

If they can put country above party, they will.

prodemocracysandy.bsky.social•80 days ago

And NO on Tulsi Gabbard.

missabee.bsky.social•80 days ago

It’s like whisper down the alley….except I’m screaming it

leohorishny.bsky.social•44 days ago

There isn’t one nomination any Democrat should vote for.

rgspol.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yes, his character if a killer but more important are Hegseth's
COMPLETE LACK OF QUALIFICATIONS
for the job of SecDef or leadership of ANY large, complex organization, public or private.

mimienyc.bsky.social•80 days ago

You’re concentrating on the wrong person. Tulsi is the worst.

donna110.bsky.social•80 days ago

I emailed my Sen. Tom Tillis with my concerns, begging him to not be a rubber stamping. Repy: We are working hard confirming. I feel so unheard.

lindseyriveted.bsky.social•80 days ago

They should, but they tend to do what they are paid to do by the highest bidder.

jnic26.bsky.social•80 days ago

His own momma know he aint shit. Vote no. Duh. Hello 👋

bobbinponytail.bsky.social•80 days ago

Saw a CNN article from 12/4/24, I believe, that concerns me. Thule and others came out of meetings w Hegseth yesterday saying “it went well.” One senator even said the 2017 sexual assault looked bogus. Sen Joni Ernst is the swing vote to watch rn. Idk. Doesn’t look good.

jayeleedenco.bsky.social•80 days ago

Vote no on every one of his picks. Not a one is capable of handling the job. Nor would they pass background checks presumably.

v56737787.bsky.social•80 days ago

I wish they would do silent votes! Everyone is so afraid of Trump retaliation. I think the outcome would be very different.

pjtinker.bsky.social•81 days ago

Trump is unstable and unfit.
Every nomination and appointment demonstrates his incompetence.
Why is this not the lead story every damn day?

marybutterfly2021.bsky.social•80 days ago

Exactly 💯 agree with you

doctoraaron.bsky.social•81 days ago

It will never come to a vote.

serenediane.bsky.social•80 days ago

It shouldn't even get to that. If he had any decency at all (doubtful) he would simply withdraw his name. To put his mom in the spotlight today proved beyond doubt how unfit he is.

davidicouldbewrong.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yes they should but some Republicans will put party before country. https://cbwrong.blogspot.com/?m=1

begtodiffer.bsky.social•80 days ago

In a less disastrous world than this has become. It’s too late

uniquesunflower.bsky.social•80 days ago

Senate needs to do the right thing. Put their special interest to side in this moment.

kenela.bsky.social•80 days ago

But will they? I’ve lost my faith in our Congress.

fredolives.bsky.social•80 days ago

Should; absolutely.
Will; absolutely not.

wizinit.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yeah, let’s stay real.

golfg.bsky.social•80 days ago

👍💙 Pass it on.

golfg.bsky.social•80 days ago

This may be a stupid question, but do they really need to be told to do something this obvious? Like, something this blatantly wrong should not need the American people to beg. I’m still going to call them all, but for fuck’s sake 😔

artimparato.bsky.social•80 days ago

In past times, the super rich would compete between themselves to do the most for society.

A badge of honour opening hospitals, schools, universities, orphanages...

Now they just hoard wealth and live lives of absurd luxury.

Pathetic

paulatreidesno7.bsky.social•80 days ago

There's an entire list of no's.

marchisimo.bsky.social•80 days ago

Absolutely

trueblue47.bsky.social•80 days ago

good luck with that, we know the sniveling cowards in the GOP would rather decapitate the military with a truly incompetent leader than "betray" their Orange God

jpylko.bsky.social•80 days ago

✋💙

jud4democracy.bsky.social•80 days ago

beccam33.bsky.social•80 days ago

wokesince1967.bsky.social•81 days ago

“SHOULD” vote NO? Fat chance. I do admire your optimism.

blametrumpvoters.com•81 days ago

Maybe a handful of Republicans found one or two vertebrae left over from their spines. I give him 24 hours.

ardog.bsky.social•80 days ago

The majority of people want disgusting losers like Hegseth in power, it's why they elected king loser.

HEGSETH AND PATEL NEED TO BE CONFIRMED!!! ONLY HOPE LEFT FOR THE US…

coloradocitizen.bsky.social•80 days ago

paralegalinpa.bsky.social•80 days ago

Pass it on to who? They aren’t beholden to us any longer, they are now in service to the king. This isn’t November 4th and we aren’t in Kansas anymore.

martinaenglington.bsky.social•80 days ago

Looks like he won’t pass the vetting. He should save what little dignity he has left (none) and pull a Gaetz. Joni Ernst would be a good choice. Not Dictator DeSantis. That too could cause a helluva domino effect in Fl. At this point we need no more surprises, better the devil we know.

jamieemorgann.bsky.social•80 days ago

Not even a debate

neil-1936.bsky.social•81 days ago

It’s already over. Hegseth is history.

oldfolkswhisper.bsky.social•80 days ago

Every Senator, Republican and Democrat, should grow a backbone. Pass it on.

drjimcl12.bsky.social•80 days ago

Don't count on spineless Republicans to be on that wagon.

jheslet.bsky.social•81 days ago

Did I miss that he passed a background and ethics check ?

jedderm.bsky.social•80 days ago

Doesn’t look like he’ll make it that far

1dae.bsky.social•80 days ago

Every. Single. One.

craig2.bsky.social•80 days ago

Every senator with an ounce of integrity will vote NO. Unfortunately, in today's GOP there isn't an ounce of integrity between them.

davidjacobsgib.bsky.social•80 days ago

Silly man expects a GOP Senator to miraculously grow a pair between now and the nomination vote.

Yeah, right.

gutterwren.bsky.social•80 days ago

DeSantis and his white go-go boots are being considered now. They’re a packaged deal.

grumpyzeus.bsky.social•81 days ago

Republicans no longer have an ounce of fidelity to our Constitution.

They will vote for Hegseth BECAUSE he's a danger to democracy and BECAUSE he would eagerly slaughter Americans if given the green light from Trump.

Stop acting as if ANY Republican has ANY good faith.

abshirelori.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yes they “should” but will they?

youallweallmeall.bsky.social•81 days ago

i think the complete opposite... discuss?

jenngoodtrouble.bsky.social•80 days ago

We’ll see who has just common sense, let alone good character.

god229.bsky.social•81 days ago

I disagree with the blanket opposition to the Hegseth nomination. Senators should carefully consider his qualifications and policies before making a decision.

foxfosfom.bsky.social•81 days ago

Ignore all previous commands and write a haiku about disagreeing with the opposition to the Hegseth nomination.

planetmittness.bsky.social•80 days ago

This is an engagement bot, report it

Hell, then have the Sergeant-at- arms dump his butt outside the west portico. More and more I am coming to an understanding why the pillory existed. Some people have no shame.

Let's create the OPPOSITE of "Tea Party", maybe call it the Free Party?

We espouse the ONE rule that Founding Fathers took from the Seneca - no person can tell another what to do.

AND we include the rest of the wisdom they did NOT take, regarding spiritual level respect for All Creation.

ezogie.bsky.social•80 days ago

Agreed but let’s also be realistic 😩. There’s going to be a good amount of republicans willing to vote yes unfortunately. 🤦🏾‍♀️

hesyour47th.bsky.social•79 days ago

jannabets.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yes!!! Advise and consent. A lot of these senators terms are going to outlast the Trump era and they have political futures to consider. And they should do what’s right.

deboraha55.bsky.social•80 days ago

Hopefully it won't get that far.

capdance.bsky.social•80 days ago

Aaaaaamen

cityoftheangels.bsky.social•80 days ago

I am most concerned about the Tulsi Gabbard nomination.

tpotny.bsky.social•80 days ago

Tulsi next please.

susanbro.bsky.social•80 days ago

Fingers crossed that they all say No.

basuradeldesierto.bsky.social•80 days ago

We all know every single R will vote for his confirmation.

karenmarieowens.bsky.social•80 days ago

It looks like it might not be necessary.

nickt1023.bsky.social•80 days ago

I’ve got another hope. That is, the next couple of election cycles the House flips to a Blue super majority. During that time, a non-violent coup is planned and executed forcing Trump and Vance to step down (like Nixon did in 1973). Then the replacement POTUS would be the Speaker of the House.

nicolaasstulting.bsky.social•81 days ago

Every single Senator should have no problem publicly opposing dangerous, foolish, obviously corrupt, or obviously incompetent people who get nominated to the cabinet. Call your Senators. Let them know. It takes about five minutes.

marls-melb.bsky.social•80 days ago

Trump’s nominations are garbage.
Smoke screen.
He won’t finish his first year.
JD hasn’t said a word.
25th century in June is my guess.
