No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC 1hNEW: Lisa Murkowski, who voted to confirm Amy Coney Barrett when Trump specifically said he was nominating justices to overturn Roe v. Wade, just said she finds it shocking that this would happen and her confidence in the court has been rocked.

She is either lying or a moron.
Or both.

(20,056 posts)Both she and Collins knew what they were approving when they did it. Collins didn't care because she's not planning on running in 2026 (my opinion) and Murkowski was hedging her bets in a mostly conservative Alaska. They both straddle the line like the professional politicians they are.
