Joe Donnelly, Joe Manchin. Who was the fourth? Angus King?

They should be ashamed voting for a lying, war-mongering Trimp butt-kisser like pompous Pompeo.

anyone in Congress who votes to confirm a Trump nominee, Democrat or Republican, is complicit in treason. They know he was installed by Russia and is illegitimate as President. They need to go.

that we Democrats control everything in government for the next hundred years and beyond.

I don't like war, recession and stupidity and treason.

Homophobic things that she staunchly denies saying, while looking the other way as the Senate, with the help of Dems, confirms a homophobe to one of the most powerful positions in the world.

But he's a white man and the Senators who voted for him are all white, so maybe that's different ...

They have to do this so they can keep their seat so they can do the right thing. But when we need them to do the right thing, it's wash, rinse and repeat because they have to keep their seat.

until they are sick to their guts of Republicans. Then they can see what they really are. No such animal as a kinder Republican any more. There might have been at one time but those days and those Republicans are gone. Pompeo is horrid.

Pompeo is one of them.

The GOP runs everything and Trump is going to get what he wants right now.

Use their fuck up against them in marketing and campaign ads and the ground game in a GOTV scenario this fall.

2018 elections are all that matter now.

The deeper Trump and his corrupt goons dig their swamp right now the better for us to use it against them.

If this one is the vote that let's those (D) Senators hold their seats and we take the House and Senate in the fall then it will be worth it in the long run.

2018 GOTV!
