Ok, Collins is straight up fellating Kavanaugh. This is ridiculous.

Kavanaugh is going to make Collins look like a fool and it's going to be hilarious. He's going to gut her ACA and Roe.

Keep in mind, when it come to issues like those, it takes five to tango.


They already have 4. Kavanaugh is the 5th. Ofc whoever they would have picked in place of Kavanaugh would have voted the same, but the fact she is expressly using these cases to justify voting for him is funny.

Yeah I know, I just felt you were slightly misrepresenting the situation.

At least Van Dyke got convicted of second degree murder.

Was just about to post that. 2 year trial and second degree. His partner that night is also facing charges for conspiracy.

Kinda creepy. Makes you wonder what kinda insane leverage McConnell has for their lunch to yield these kinds of results

Collins complaining about dark money while voting for a dude that is totally going to expand the influance of dark money is some 4D chess non-sense.

Lol why is she talking about Garland... Seriously ?? She is making the argument that Garland and Kavanaugh voted together, implying it's all fine and democrats should be happy ?

ok it's set in stone, she is defending presumption of innocence, she will vote yes.

And there is 2 million in the bank for whoever her opponent is in 2020 as of today. So it should be fun to watch.

I expect that number is going to go up a lot over the following days and weeks. Somebody is licking their chops in Maine right now.

Whoever thought it was a good idea for Collins to make this super long speech should be fired, it's stoking fires like nothing else that has been said so far.

Susan Collins; fighting for sexual assault survivors with everything she has. Except when it's inconvenient.

Collins misdirected righteous indignation is getting embarrassing. This doesnt sound like someone who was ever even considering voting no.

Edit: the donate to Collins opponent page crashed from the number of users. Lol!

Collins :
"We should believe and listen survivors, even close friends told me they were assaulted !"
Also her :
"If you have no proof, f*** you I'll confirm that guy !"

(Well, presumption of innocence IS important, so I kinda agree uncorroborated allegations should not block people blindly. However, no mention at all of Kavanaugh's behaviour...)


edit : done, confirmed.

Feels like Collins is acting as the conduit for the entire Republican Senate and giving their big apologetic for Kavanaugh. Well, I hope she enjoys having that $2 million albatross over her head now.

“There isn’t a clear conviction or overwhelming evidence you can point so, so this is all baseless accusations,” people from the part of Dennis Hastert, a man with unconfirmed sexual abuse charges always floating around him until they were confirmed.

My dream of being able to argue in front of the SC and say, "Yes, Justice O'Kavanaugh" lives to fight another day it seems :D
