Yea he was getting trolled pretty bad so he locked his account. I’ll take a few screenshots of what he’s been saying.

Yeah, some districts/states are not changing ever. Our GOP rep (who IMHO is actually OK, in the sense that he seems to try to actually do the job he was elected to) isn’t EVER losing to a democrat - he won in the Blue wave in 2018 by just shy of 60%. I can’t fathom a way he could lose, barring some insane criminal thing, and he’d just be replaced by next man/woman up in the GOP

Did Uncle B happen to comment any on yesterday’s Supreme Court ACA decision saying uh, obviously “shall” means what you think it means?

God Alito is the woat

So,like they think it proves their point?

They think it gives Israel more power to control the world that they think Israel already controls? Yeah…no one said they were smart or consistent.

I’d be more interested in what the traditional white supremacist say but I’d rather not go into their homeland.

Good. I bet this is the reason why she dropped out of the race. She wants to put these clowns behind bars and then run on that in the future.

A couple of links and then relevant names highlighted for their positions.

Senate Republicans are beginning to deliver a reality check to the president and House Republicans that there are limits to what they can do.

[In] the Senate, the GOP is far more wary of the trial turning into a circus. That could be problematic for senators, vulnerable or otherwise, who want to see serious and thoughtful proceedings before casting a historic vote on whether to remove Trump from office.

And even if Senate Republicans wanted to embrace the hard-line posture of the House, the party’s narrow majority makes that all but impossible under Senate rules.

Calling controversial witnesses will require near lockstep party unity from 51 of the 53 Senate Republicans to make any procedural maneuvers, a tough task given the diverse views in the GOP, according to senators and aides.

“You got two different bodies here,” Graham, a stalwart Trump ally, told reporters on Thursday. “Are we going to start calling House members over here when we don’t like what they say or do? I don’t think so.”

“If you get into a long convoluted [process], this thing could drag on for a really long time,” said Senate Majority Whip John Thune (R-S.D.). “If both sides get into a bunch of motions about who we bring who [Democrats] bring and we’re having numerous votes on that? I think that’s something, I think, in the end neither side is probably going to be crazy about.”

“I don’t even know whether there are going to be witnesses. And it seems the witnesses should be relevant to the inquiry,” said Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine).

“I would be cautious about limiting the witnesses [Trump] chooses to call. If he’s on trial, he should have the right to call witnesses,” countered Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.). “I don’t know how you go to an accused and say, ‘We’re not going to allow you to call certain witnesses.’ That would make the whole process appear unfair.”

“What the administration wants is the ability to have the American people see what really happened, instead of what Adam Schiff has said had happened,” said Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), a top Trump ally.

“I don’t know of anybody that would want that on either side,” said Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) of a Senate spectacle. “Unless there’s some earthquake that’s unforeseen, the result is a foregone conclusion.”

“It is urgent we fight fire with fire and tell them enough is enough,” Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN) said.

“I’m talking to my Senate colleagues: here are the witnesses you should call and here are the questions you should ask,” said Rep. Chris Stewart (R-Utah). “It’s going to cast us in a different very light. This is a chance to tell the other side of the story.”

“I don’t think there’s a chance in the world they remove him. But it’s a little harder question about whether they would support calling all of these witnesses.”

Whichever Senators want to give us a McCain-level defection at the right time, I am offering a one-time deal to reduce your shame from 100% to 99.9%.

You just know Trump gets pissed off every time a judge he appointed is disloyal.
