🤣 she needs time to check his profile? Maybe she needs to see him saying he's going to come for the dems/media he doesn't like. Not only that, he is an iffy lawyer, that in itself should prevent him taking such a key role in homeland security and it's associated policy!
Now Isn’t That Sweet- Republican Senators Agreeing To Do Their MOST CRITICAL JOB!!! THE VETTING AND INVESTIGATION OF THOSE NOMINATED FOR THE LEADERSHIPS OF AMERICA’S DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTIONS—FOR AMERICANS, AMERICA’S AND WORLD- SECURITY, HEALTH, JUSTICE,PROTECTIONS AND BEST INTERESTS! Fucking hero’s!
Agree. I would love to know what goes down in her private meetings with the nominees.
I would love to see some thoughts from people who live in Maine. While Maine doesn't lean far left, the people don't seem to want an extreme right authoritarian agenda either.
Yup. There are no more John McCains or can’t believe I’m saying this, Liz Cheneys. All are cult members now, they know what happens if they say something against him. The inmates are running the asylum.
They intend to protect themselves from any accountability for the crimes they have committed and are conspiring to commit. Corrupt, treasonous, immoral to the core every last one of them
Completely agree. I'm exhausted with the cowardly approach to one treasonous prick with the IQ of room temperature. Our country is on the line, we get active everywhere, especially grassroots.
Please join your local chapter of https://indivisible.org. Read their guidebook and get busy making your voice heard. They use common sense tactics to put pressure on elected officials.
UhOh. Susan Collins has used up her millimeter of spine speaking against druggy rapist Matt Gaetz.
She is going to do whatever Trump wants from now on.
What is wrong with the voters in Maine? I thought they valued strength and independence.
They’re going to attempt to
use facistic tactics to process
a minimum of 60 million
individual persons, and they
have 90 days to get it done,
or the autogolpe will fail
Tough logistics
Tick Tock
What is Collins gonna say that the guy learned his lesson too! What a coward. No concern for her own children and their children. Selfish Selfish selfish
Learning more about Kash Patel than we already unfortunately know is a form of self-induced punishment. Have at it Senator Collins, and just to add to the joy of the exercise, review your notes on Kavanaugh.
Mitch, even up to his nostrils with necrosis stench of Trump’s aims for democracy death and putrefaction. He sides with their billionaire base #1 reason for existence, conserve money and power right where it’s been for 250 years in America. The evil’s deal.
Susan Collins needs to retire. “Need to learn more about his qualifications” sounds like codespeak for “ I don’t give a damn about his qualifications, I’m a good Trump lapdog and I’ll upvote his nominee anyway”.
Write your senators and demand thorough reviews of nominees and that they only approve nominees who respect the Constitution and rule of law!!! The American people and history will be judging their actions!!!
Oh they may whine, but in the end it's always the same. Those that could stand either stood up and left or were throw out. It's all grifters and cowards now.
Which, honestly, isn't a big change from how it was.
And both of my senators are already on the record supporting nominees: Grassley for Bondi and Ernst for Patel. I'm going to stay drunk for the next 4 years
I’m sorry but I cannot take this guy seriously and I’m certain that the rank and file working under him will either. Might be better that he’s confirmed because it’s clear he has no idea what he’s doing…or even what planet he’s on.
This is one of those times where living breathing Americans need to flood senators phone lines asking what compromising dirt trump has on them and whether we should be investigating them for it because it makes
Trump's purposeful selection is about "grifting" the government to enrich his artificial friends, Corp., oligarchs, etc. Did voters not check project 2025?
If Trump gets away w/his selection, it will be cancerous stage 3-4. Current rate, right now, it's stage 1..
She is worthless. Let’s get her phone and email records and see how many times she has talked to Leonard Leo in the past few weeks. She does whatever he tells her to do.
And, so we descend further into Dante's circles of hell. Maybe the sixth circle? Heresy, which pertains to the rejection of religious and political norms?
Maybe we should start sending all of the public dirt on the nominees to each of the Senators. Then they can only say they have not looked at it, not that they do not know it exists.
I know better than to get my hopes up. I just hope our country can hang on until the 2026 midterms and Democrats figure out a way to explain to average Americans that they’re in the party that actually wants to help people.
What the hell are men doing still voting for Susan Collins? She’s absolutely a waste of space and the fact that she doesn’t know who this dude is just blows my mind.
Susan Collins is full of shit. After four years as a high profile interviewee on podcasts and conservative TV, she should have the full story on Patel. This is her being a coward and a closet follower of MAGA.
They all knew and hated Gaetz. The info about Patel is just coming out. No vetting processing means the press needs to vet before it gets to the Senate. More of these cabinet picks should be knocked out before Jan 20.
The fact is, Trump will probably get the majority of his cabinet picks confirmed. The best Dems can do is A filibuster as long as they can on each one ( tommy tuberville) and B sue every single time they do something illegal or fail to do their job. And C win back control of the house.
These people are such fucking traitors. This man will ONLY use the FBI to break the law and go after US Citizens who dissent from their oppressive politics.
We can all have political disagreements, but Kash Patel shouldn't be within a mile of an important office. I appreciate his exaggerated resume, but there's a reason actual veterans at the CIA reacted to him how they did the first time. He's not a hero. He's a destructive, narcissistic tyrant.
But you see, then she would never get re-elected. And THAT's what really concerns her. Not doing the right thing. Not making sure there are backstops to Trump. No, it's all about retaining her office.
How on earth did Ole Susie get a reputation for being independent minded? The only time she vote against her group is when it won't affect the outcome.
Senator Collins will be happy to hear that he’s getting the rigorous, deep dive, pinky swear, background check, performed by the Trump transition team. 🤔
To the U.S. Senate: Do NOT capitulate in advance! Trump is testing how far he can go. THESE are the votes that can tell him there are limits!! Your duty is to our COUNTRY, not him. Don't help Trump DESTROY our nation. Be a PATRIOT, not an ACCOMPLICE!

They've been authoritarian enablers for decades.
I would love to see some thoughts from people who live in Maine. While Maine doesn't lean far left, the people don't seem to want an extreme right authoritarian agenda either.
After a while, though, they follow Collins in just giving up
It's all political theater
She is going to do whatever Trump wants from now on.

It will never, ever, be normal...the actions of the GOP.
Which, honestly, isn't a big change from how it was.
ZERO SENSE
For anyone anywhere to support him
That’s insane

Everyone, call your Senators 24/7!
So tired of ALL the lying.
Some will be sheep, others will realize that giving Trump what he wants is a recipe for disaster, both for the country and their political future.
She lost all claim to that largely unmerited mantle after Kavanaugh.
Patio furniture puts up greater resistance to folding.
I'd love to see blowups of it used in the nomination hearing...perhaps have Kash read passages.
Have not read it, myself, as I'm unwilling to purchase it.
Republican elected officials didn't get where they are by being imbodiments of integrity.
They will bend to everything that furthers their personal careers.
Even before they are asked to.
