oxsnard posted:"hmmmm, i suppose THIS time the two most spineless opportunists in the senate will eventually do the right thing" is a bad null hypothesis to rely on IMO I'm with you on this. Susan Collins has had so many opportunities to do the right thing and she always chooses party over what is right. I hope to be surprised but I will not hold my breath.

I am so used to getting my hopes up and then being poo poo on that I just don't expect good things to happen anymore. Its like the bad guy always wins. Nobody learns a lesson. The underdog loses. The good guy is corrupt. There are no more heroes.

Another Rand Paul question gets axed. At this point it's probably just racial slurs and " I as Chief Justice declare this trial over, and Trump is super acquitted."

Dameius posted:Thomas is the least partisan judge on the court. Dude has rulings that are crazy consistent to his stated ideology. It is also true that his ideology is batshit crazy and unique to him. Because of this though, he is one of the most easy judges to predict ruling outcomes on. You probably meant Alito and Gorsuch. His ideology is hyper conservative, though. His votes are almost always going to in line with what the GOP is looking for. It's like the running joke here about how an 'independent' voter always votes Republican. Gross.

Because they desperately want to be able to frame the entire thing as some liberal conspiracy and demonize some person because they did the right thing. IE had the audacity of reporting on their crimes. It is all about using intimidation to discourage other people from doing the same thing. Rand Paul should be punished in some way for doing it.

I'm pretty sure doxxing a whistleblower is a federal crime. And he did it in front of cameras, not in the chamber, so he can't claim immunity.

A Terrible Person posted:This post neither identifies the remark in question nor explains why it's irrelevant or a smear. Hi, thanks for your second post in this thread. If you'd refer to the OP, you'd see that rapid-fire TVIV style posting during hearings is allowed here, while reactions without context would not be in USPOL. I'm sure Pam Bondi appreciates this epic own you've done on her behalf, though.
