U.S. Senators Joe Manchin and Susan Collins slammed Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch for their votes in overturning Roe V. Wade on Friday.
The senators had voted to confirm the Donald Trump appointed justices despite fears that they would overtrun the landmark abortion ruling, with the senators saying at the time that they trusted Kavanaugh and Gorsuch to uphold the law.
Now Collins, a Republican, and Manchin, a Democrat, are accusing the justices of misleading them as they criticized the court's 5-4 ruling to end women's federal right to an abortion.

They could always write their Senator...
🤣🤣🤣😜
Collins is always misled.
They did uphold the law. The law according to the constitution and the 10th amendment.

Yup.
Politicians complaining about misleading people? Hmmm…
What stopped Collins from codifying R v W as actual US Law?
Doesn’t she write The Law?
Also, Manchin.
They are in cya mode. Both suck.
Too bad, so sad.
That’s ok - Susan Collins misled me about being a Republican.
Good post.
I concur.
Mansion is nailed to the wall.
Thanks for opening my eyes on Manchin. His statement yesterday was a bucket of cold water in my face. Your picture is a barrel. But his statement yesterday was in verbal form your picture, that is, I’m Catholic and Pro-Life but let’s codify Roe.
I’m wondering if Bill Clinton’s reaction to that picture would be: Dang, dude, you’re a weasel.
The order went out to all Democrats to say they were lied to by the Justices, and this is one time that Manchin will fall in line with his party because there is nothing real at stake in doing this.

I wonder if a liberal justice nominee ever misled Republican senators? Nah, prolly not . . .
Aw, Too bad. Too late.
It all evens out in the long run. Other than Alito and Thomas, most of the republican appointees lied to us conservatives when they said they were Constitutionalists.
3 hail Mary’s for you Amy.
I thought it was 6-3
