Well, yeah, if they have any - these are Senators: there’s a 2/3 chance none of these folks is up for re-election in November. I didn’t look to see, so I don’t know if they are.

Nevertheless, don’t stop contributing to the opponents of those R’s that are up for re-election.

I will not be watching/listening to any of this crap. We’ve heard it all before and I don’t want to feel any more discouraged about this than I already do.

Maybe I should start watching old cartoons every day to escape this reality. I have never felt so awful about this country and what is happening now.

The Senate Majority Leader, unlike the Speaker of the House, is not a “constitutional office”. How does Kentucky get veto power over the whole country?

Maybe they are the designated “point of order” interrupters?

ETA: this is actually a serious question. Are they allowed leap up and bog down this process as they did during the House proceedings?
