Originally published at: Is Blanche Vow to Make Dobbs Permanent in ‘Every Single State’ Tied to Cornyn, Tillis Appeasement? - TPM – Talking Points Memo
Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) and a handful of women’s rights and reproductive freedom groups are sounding the alarm over recent reporting that acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has vowed to use the Justice Department to roll back abortion access nationwide — a break with both President Trump’s own campaign promises that places him much further…
Hall pass for Susan. Who didn’t see that coming?

Interesting night tonight. I wonder if we will get a definitive result in Spokane. Will the Independent Fireman win? Will the Democrat establishment candidate win? Baumgartner, the fool in office now, is the only Republican on the ballot so he will surely get first place, but by how much?
Also, of course I am filled with hope over. Michigan. It’s time we kicked AIPAC and Zionism out of the Democratic Party.

Collins Will Vote ‘No’ on Blanche
Which just gives Fetterman the hall pass to vote to confirm.
Now, who is following the primary results and where are we tracking them?

Susan Collins voted to confirm Blanche as Deputy AG. So she was for him before she was against him. Waiting for her to tell Maine voters she has poor judgment and should be replaced.

“And look you’re right, the allegations they’re incredibly troubling, I agree they’re troubling, but if they were true, I’d be in prison.”
But I’m a rich, white, person of privilege - so I won’t be going to jail at all.

“Testosterone therarpy” = “Roided to the gills” and probably, fortunately, unable to ever reproduce again. But beware for the gullible MAGA lady who giggles at the sight of his shrunken balls.

Collins must know they have the votes to confirm. She’s always a no when she doesn’t need to be a yes.

Pretty close to nobody would be going to prison on the known evidence, It all happened in private, and there is no video or outside eyewitness testimony that it happened the way it has been described by Erin Moreno.
I’m sorry, but the criminal justice system does not obtain convictions on ambiguous, uncorroborated evidence.
That said, she’s likely to end up with something approaching full custody with only supervised visits for Roid Boy, plus paying full child support. Because the standard of proof is not beyond a reasonable doubt in a civil divorce.
Don’t worry for Maximum Miller, he’ll end up publishing a ghostwritten MRA book and being Acting Undersecretary of War for ‘Roids But No Gurlz Allowed.

Pathetic Fetterman to Blanche’s rescue after Concerned Collins gets her hall pass- Let’s see 2 more hall passes to give out as long is JD isn’t out negotiating with Iran. Murkowski gets 1. When does the betting go live on Polymarket for who gets the third HP.
The last shreds of dignity that Tillis & Cornyn had left were consumed by the wraiths. This is all such a sad charade.

Unless he has some serious issues with his testicles (cancer, severe injury, etc.), no man in his 30s has any business being on testosterone replacement therapy.

I’ll register here and probably on other postings that “A” is mch. I could go on and on about my hellish few hours this afternoon with Google Chrome, which cut me out entirely because I hadn’t updated to the latest OS. (I don’t even know how to interact with Google Chrome to update!) Firefox via an email address of my husband’s has landed me back here as “A.”
But this is the part I WANT TO SCREAM AT TPM. @kelaine
If you need to sign into TPM and have forgotten your password (only available to me via Google Chrome, which has cut me off, sending me to Firefox, which I will probably switch to soon as my main browser)
GIVE THE CELLPHONE OPTION FOR CONTACTING PEOPLE IN NEED OF A VERIFICATION CODE! YOU CURRENTLY GIVE ONLY AN EMAIL ADDRESS TO CONTACT.BUT MY EMAIL IS WHAT I’D BEEN SHUT OFF FROM! INCORPORATE CELLPHONE #’S AS AN OPTION INTO YOUR SYSTEM! ENTER THE 21ST CENTURY.
I need to add that Google Chrome is no longer sending my iPhone my email. Things were easier when I typed up from my handwritten ms. copy for a secretary to type up better. Yes, I’m that old.

You could try to send a DM to @woz. He is Matt Wozniak, TPM’s IT director.
I’m sorry, I’m just a volunteer and don’t have the ability or technical knowledge to help you with this issue.
