We'll see who the governor appoints.

In the mean time, enjoy the media tears!

Amazing how little criticism these guys have for Biden in comparison.

Concur completely.

Inveterate losers love company, but are sadly (by which is meant, quitehappily) finding less and less of it in the Federal Congress.

Notice how none of the squish Rethuglicans said anything about Hillary’s 2016 failed run and refusal to accept that the election was fair.

The article spills more truth than I’ve heard in a long time. Admitting that Mitch McConnell completely runs the senate. That is shameful. It was never intended to be run by one person.

McConnell needs to go.

Love all the lamentations in the press about the GOP losing its “moderates”….

When the Dems (from the top down) purged the moderates in their party during the Clinton years 30 years ago, which has lead to the state of DC today, hardly a word was spoken of it…

But now when the voters are purging the so called “moderates” from the GOP, I now, now it’s a problem.

If my information is correct, Ben Sasse had a lifetime American Conservative Union rating of somewhere around 90% — consistently one of the highest in the U.S. Senate.

When the media describe someone like this as a “moderate,” you know that either the media or these conservative political groups have no idea what the hell it even means to be a “conservative” anymore.

Now let’s get RID of “Team Mitch.”

“polarization” a term used by the media when any opposition to the left’s agenda is made.

Often Congressmen will vote for conservative bills they know won’t pass to up their ratings.
Only a small percentage of their votes truly matter.

Keep crying RINOs. We’re quickly making you an endangered species. Soon you will be as extinct as Blue Dog Democrats.

You’re worthless turds and now that we know there are alternatives, we don’t have to hold our noses and vote for you anymore. Indeed, that is counterproductive. You simply have to go - at all costs.

No votes count too. So they will often vote no on bills they know will pass to also get their ratings up.

True. All in all, it’s a game and the ratings mean little.
They will also vote yes, even if they oppose, on something they know is going to pass.
Almost every politician is a scumbag and a sociopath.

Actions have consequences. Voting to impeach Trump using a kangaroo court without due process on phony charges is reason enough to hold these Reps accountable. Compounding this are the unfounded attacks by DOJ and the FBI against a former President and his supporters. The invasion of Mar a Lago by the FBI is the last straw.
