They’ll roll over and spread their legs...
Then, after the communist bitch is confirmed, they will spend all their time talking about how they fought against her...

Surrender monkeys are as surrender monkeys do...

I can see Schumer finding some excuse to dismiss a Republican from the committee.

Don’t tell the Dhimmicraps, but there is a way around the 60 votes that doesn’t involve nuking the filibuster — the two speeches rule. Senators are allowed only two speeches a day. If you never adjourn, it’s the same “legislative day.” You essentially stop the clock.

“Editor’s Note: The original version of this story incorrectly stated that Republicans could use Senate rules to block a Biden Supreme Court nomination. It was based on the author’s incorrect analysis of a May 13, 2021, Congressional Research Service report. The Senate will require a majority of votes to approve Justice Stephen Breyer’s replacement, not 60 votes.”

Question, question, I have a question.

As someone who grew up in / on Suffolk County, Long Island, New York.

Population at my High School was a very close to an equal:
1/3rd Black,
1/3rd White,
1/3rd Puerto Rican.
School year I graduated 1970-71. Are you ready for this, the graduated class size (12th grade / senior class size was just over 1,400 {one thousand-four hundred} IIRC, or dam close to it.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brentwood_High_School_(New_York)

1970–1980
On June 27, 1971, the last Brentwood senior class graduated together as one 1,400 body of students enjoying the now demolished Commack Arena as the commencement site.

I was in the last class size, before the school was split into 2 (two) distinct & separate High School(s.)
Brentwood Ross High School & Brentwood Sonderling High School

The question: How Black is Black enough?

It was said about obummer, he was "light-skined" by yours truly U.S. Senator from Maryland, now acting POTUS Joe-Bite-Me.

Is that a racist question when a conservative asks, but if a democRAT asks, (U.S. Senator from Maryland, now acting POTUS Joe-Bite-Me) it's perfectly fine?

My question if you will, comes from what I personally experienced / witnessed through the 3 (three) years of High School, 10th-12th grades. FYI Junior High was 7th-9th grades.

Now living 50 miles dead north of the SAN-FRAN-FREAK-O of the north, formerly known as Seattle, located in the People's Republic of Washington (state, not D.C.)

Portman left the U.S. Senate in January, 2023. Unless there is another Senator Portman. The junior Senator from Ohio is now J. D. Vance.
