Sen. Dianne Feinstein's death creates a vacancy on the powerful panel that oversees President Biden's judicial nominees. Without her, Democrats don't have a majority on it.
Unfortunately, their word is meaningless. And to believe their statements is risky. I mean, I’m glad they are saying this. But we won’t be able to see if it means shit until they actually do or do not block a new member of the committee.
We need to stop with the fiction that Mitch is alive, he claimed unlife at least 99 years ago and his recent incidents are just whichever otherworldly entity he made the deal with reminding him that it’s almost time to collect payment
We have a buttload of people past their due date in Congress.

This guillotine is going up as fast as humanly possible, but I’m just one person. I do hope he can hold out for just a little while longer. I’m making sure to professionally paint the phrase “Heroes Work Here” across the top beam. 🤘🏼💀
Damn, the Senate GOP are trying their damnedest to differentiate themselves from the shitshow in the House.
Unfortunately, their word is meaningless. And to believe their statements is risky. I mean, I’m glad they are saying this. But we won’t be able to see if it means shit until they actually do or do not block a new member of the committee.
They said they wouldn’t replace Ginsberg either.
They might recognize that the seat in question is a lost cause. Or just another trap, either way.
Or them fearing what will happen in retaliation when the old turtle croaks.
We need to stop with the fiction that Mitch is alive, he claimed unlife at least 99 years ago and his recent incidents are just whichever otherworldly entity he made the deal with reminding him that it’s almost time to collect payment
Or Chuck Grassley who is 88

Even McConnell seems to be “hey kids… wtf are you doing?”
