Sheldon Whitehouse to Senate Republicans: Your Credibility Will Die in This Room

[QUOTE]There will not be two sets of rules for Democratic and Republican Senate majorities, Whitehouse vowed; the GOP decision to block President Obama’s nominee in 2016 and approve Trump’s just days before the 2020 election will have consequences.

Sheldon, sweetie, it was dead a long time ago.

Their credibility never made it into that room.

by Anonymousreply 2October 16, 2020 1:36 AM

Whatever. Dem Senators will just keep folding and making nice with the enemy. Once Trump is out, primary the motherfuckers.

The only reason she's being considered is because she agreed to be Scalia's mini-me. She's so ambitious and greedy she's agreed to become a Republican operative. She's hiding things, being evasive. And the Xtian cult thing is just so distasteful.

Go away, bitch.

by Anonymousreply 4October 16, 2020 1:40 AM

She never tried a case, right? That is just astounding to me. Jaw dropping.

by Anonymousreply 5October 16, 2020 1:50 AM

Not to mention she seems sleazy.

Whitehouse is not playing with these crooks.

I don’t think so. Not this time.

She's a very bad hombre

I am normally not like this, but the way I see it, the Republicans stole two seats - Barack's vacancy and Ginsberg's seat. Kavanaugh's seat was the only one that legitimately fell to Trump. Therefore, if the Senate wants to add two Supremes, I am really OK with it.

by Anonymousreply 10October 16, 2020 2:09 AM

And that is precisely what we’re talking about, R10. Just two little Justices—Justices that were stolen from us. Remember that when you hear someone scaremongering about “packing the Supreme Court.” It won’t be packing; it will be a reformation.

The thing is it's set up in waves. The whole electoral process. When the Republicans stole these two sets without the the American people behind them they have set themselves up for repercussions. it is up to us to hold our senators feet to the fire and make the Supreme Court more representative to what we want. Im under Dick Durbin and I already called his office twice asking what is gonna be done about this power grab by the Republicans regarding the Supremes. y'all gotta do the same. Their has to be accountability and it's up to us

How refreshing -- a senator with actual cajones instead of a doddering ass-kisser!

by Anonymousreply 13October 16, 2020 2:15 AM

Their credibility was in the bathroom, but I think someone flushed.

Yeah, and that someone was Mitch McConnell.

I really wish the Democrats would go scorched earth. Do everything right up to the absolute limit. Make Puerto Rico, and Washington DC both states. Pack the courts. Gerrymander as far as the eye can see. Demand the fairness doctrine of the FCC be restored and expanded. Expand voting rights and make the ability to vote at home or on your cell phone secure and simple. Box them in on all sides.

by Anonymousreply 16October 16, 2020 2:31 AM

We’ve got to get the media to stop referring to it as “court packing.”

I preferred this Judging Amy. She seemed more qualified.

He is so right. And also pretty hot, not that that has anything to do with it.

I don't know a great deal about this senator, but I think I might be a fan now.

by Anonymousreply 20October 17, 2020 12:11 AM

Unbelievable.

by Anonymousreply 21October 19, 2020 9:44 PM

The first time I saw Senator Whitehouse was on "Active Measures" and I fell in like with him then.

I loved how he brought his Katie Porter whiteboard to the judiciary committee meeting and started talking about the dark money funding all of these scumbags.

He sounds a bit like Charles Nelson Reilly, too.

Pack that damn court with 15 Justices. We have 330 million people in the USA now- represent us!

by Anonymousreply 23October 20, 2020 3:52 AM

Motherfuckers.

by Anonymousreply 24October 27, 2020 12:21 AM

Is it really feasible to add more justices? It must be done.

by Anonymousreply 25October 27, 2020 12:23 AM

Today's elected Republican officials don't give a rats ass about credibility, they only care about power and forcing through their agenda. If they lose their seat in this election they have lucrative corporate jobs and/or lobbyist positions awaiting them.

She's a whore. Darlin.

by Anonymousreply 27October 27, 2020 12:32 AM

I love him. He is hot.

Way to focus on the important things, R28.

by Anonymousreply 29October 27, 2020 12:53 AM

R29, do you know where you are? Whether a senator or a convict (See thread titled: "Captured"), hotness will always be the priority 'round these parts.
