Turning The Ballot Box Against Republicans

It already looks like a train wreck, but when you factor in lipstick and eyeliner, it gets even more drastic, I reckon.

Collins is hopeless. She's basically planted in that seat, too – every six years we get our hopes up and every six years she get re-elected. I don't know what the deal is with Murkowski.

What really gets me is that these senators are so chicken-**** about getting f-ing "primaried". They're all goddam multi-millionaires; it's not as if they'd starve if they lost an election. Especially if they lost by sticking up for the bed-rock principles of our constitutional democracy – it would be a mark of courage, a badge of honor. I had some hope that Tillis (NC) would refuse to vote to confirm Hegseth but I guess he got the phone call from Trump and backed down. Cassidy (LA) buckled too and ended up supporting RFK Jr. McConnell (KY) is too far gone to stand up for any newly-discovered loyalty to the rule of law. It's really pretty disgusting. Fifty-three powerful politicians in the thrall of grifting Trump and dip-**** Musk. Of course, knowing that well-armed MAGA patriots would bomb their homes shoot them might be affecting their commitment to the US Constitution.
