It would be really awful if something happened to a GA Senator, or one of the MD Senators, or Mass....
At 49 he likely suffered the stroke due to being triple vaccinated. I did an investigation on a Marine Colonel a few months ago, very fit. Stroked out after a 3 mile run on a sunday...Double Vaxxed of course. Death rates in the military are through the roof...but nothing to see here folks move along... we are not being ruled by demons...
the dems will just do the vote by proxy thing for him even if he is unconscious. Nothing to see here. Move along.
DEM Supreme Court nominations are rarely party line....But recently Dems have crucified Republican nominees.
Until he is better, this kills any party line vote the dems want. They can no longer count on Harris to provide the winning vote.
Not going to complicate anything. There are a significant number of republican senators that will crap all over themselves to support the democrats. ( Murkowski, Collins, Graham, McConnell, Romney ...)
bidAn’s Supreme Court plans complicated with ‘The stroke of the Ben’
Not likely he will resign - he’s not eligible for retirement. He started in the House of Reps in 2005; but you need 20 years of service plus age 50 to get retirement. An older Senator could resign and take retirement , but not him. That’s what makes this even worse for the Rats …. I want four years of Trump Budgets under ‘continuing resolutions’ (CRs)
the dems will call for fairness to the 50 50 split and insist a repub sit out the voting... they have done it in the past i believe.
Schumer has 3 safe GOP votes for whoever “Biden” nominates, probably up to ten.
Skip the needless drama.
Yes indeed Dick. He certainly does move in mysterious ways.
Perhaps the Senator’s brush with death will cause him to have a better appreciation of life.
Maybe he will begin to see things on a different level.
One can hope and pray.
No it won’t. They’ll get about 15 Repukes.
Nonsense. At least four or five republicans, and probably many more, will vote for Biden’s nominee. The significance of this is as pertains to the plans to chop up BBB and pass various pieces of it. They’re not getting anything done until Lujan returns to Washington
Stroke from the clot shot?
It really matters where the stroke hit, but if it was cerebral then there is no full recovery. The tissues downstream of the occlusion will literally die. They don’t come back to life. Surgery will cause more damage. They will do whatever they can to stand him back up because they need him. Liberals say they value life but they only value usefulness.
GOP will “surprisingly” find just enough “mavericks” to vote for Biden’s nominee. No matter how many dems stroke out, resign, are too drunk to show up, whatever ... the GOP will find enough “mavericks” to get it done for them. Like they always do on the big thing that are too important to pretend for the base.
Lujan should have streaming video set up in his room — New Mexican Jumping Pillows suffocated a Supreme Court Justice, and might strike again if politically expedient.
Our LORD moves in mysterious and unexpected ways.
