Aside from the Turtle, if thereās someone that I want gone in 2020, itās that phony azz Susan Collins from Maine. She pretends that sheās a moderate, when she has done nothing but vote in lockstep with the GOP.
Every once in awhile, she does something meaningless to push the fallacy of her being a āmoderateā.
Collins eyes second letter to AG Barr on fate of health care law
05/03/19 10:48 AM
By Steve Benen
Sen. Susan Collins wants Attorney General Bill Barr to reverse the Justice Departmentās aggressive move, seeking to obliterate the Affordable Care Act.
In a letter to Barr on Monday, the Maine Republican argues that if the Trump administration wants to change the health care law, it should come to Congress and ask. Otherwise, Barrās department should be defending the law from a lawsuit seeking to cripple it, she says.
āRather than seeking to have the courts invalidate the ACA, the proper route for the administration to pursue would be to propose changes to the ACA or to once again seek its repeal. The administration should not attempt to use the courts to bypass Congress,ā Collins wrote to Barr, whom she supported in his confirmation vote in February.
A letter? Really?
But, letās put the votes, that actually matter in this situation, from Little Susie in context.
Collins, whoās up for re-election next year, is in an awkward spot. The Republican senator voted against the Affordable Care Act; she voted for the tax legislation thatās imperiled the ACA; she voted to confirm Bill Barr as attorney general; and though we donāt yet know how the case will play out in the courts, itās entirely possible she also voted to confirm some of the federal judges who may yet side the with the Trump administration against the health care law.
So, see, when the ACA came up originally, she couldnāt be bothered to vote for it.
The GOP Tax Scam that took aim at the ACA ā she was in in.
Barr- who folks like me knew was bad news ā she voted for him.
All those Federalist Society Judges, who are not only anti-ACA and Abortion ā she has voted in lockstep for them.
Lest we forget her vote for the sexual assaulter that was just put on the Supreme Courtā¦
Oh no, Little Susie. Youāre eyeballs deep in responsibility for the peril that the ACA is in.
We need to find a good Democrat to get rid of this horrid woman. Ted Cruz is more honest than her ā he doesnāt pretend to be anything other than who he isā¦while all she is in dripping in a cloak of phoniness.
Some day, perhaps America and the world will get to better understand exactly what George and Kellyanne were up to..

This is that stress test to see how far folks will go to assert and protect their white supremacy no matter how criminal, inferior, immoral, dumb, treasonous… and no matter how much damage is done to our country, democracy, union..and the idea that was America ..
Weāll see whatās left of it all..
And weāll see how much – if any – of these twisted, criminal, treasonous precedents set by entitled white criminality, will be upheld following this destructive dystopian sh*t-show..

I had read about her last year in ”The New Yorker.” She stayed at the best hotels in America, attended top level events, went on expensive cruises, etc., all while lying about being a trust-fund kid from a rich family. She really was from an average German family with a modest income.

so the Alabama abortion criminalization bill has an extra tacked on to the end of it wherein, if a woman reports being raped and they find the person she accused not guilty, SHE goes to jail, because it’s declared a false rape accusation https://t.co/TheaK9IqD0

**IT’S BLOODY EXHAUSTING
Look, in the last 2 days I’ve had to give 3 white women the 411 on exactly who voted for 45, regardless of Russia’s interference
VOTER SUPPRESSION
GERRYMANDERING
And then the cold hard facts right here:
53% WHITE WOMEN VOTED FOR 45
The 53 percent issue
This time, the problem in American feminism has a name
Even though a majority of white women voted for Trump, white feminists are now urging resistance to his presidency. Theyāve called for solidarity across racial lines and for a massive Womenās March on Washington the day after the inauguration.
BLACK WOMEN—HOLD THE FUCK UP
But a vocal segment of women of color, especially black feminists, are saying, hold up, pump the brakes. While white feminists are issuing all-hands-on-deck calls to stand against a Trump presidency, these women say, they havenāt worked hard enough to even win over a majority of their own ranks. (Polls show 94 percent of black women ā the highest percentage in the nation ā voted for Hillary Clinton, as did 69 percent of Latinas.)

Pump the brakes.

PFFFT!
But itās not just Bernie folks …thereās a whole lot of the ādistance from, diminish and dismiss the Obamasā running theme going on with supporters of all the others – Warren, Harris, Buttigieg, heck, even Biden folks, etc..
Even some black āsocial media influencersā on the payroll of the Harris campaign are trying to āproveā their PUMA bona fides by asserting that they were Hillary supporters in the 2008 primaries, and āheld their nosesā to vote for then Senator Obama in the general …and still think Hillary shouldāve been president before āObamaā..
And thereās a ton of them now bashing my historic FLOTUS …insisting that she somehow is to blame for all that now ails the Democratic Party …that if she hadnāt said āwhen they go high, we go lowā in that one DNC convention speech in 2016, Hillary wouldāve won – including in 2008, too …congressional Democrats – some of whom have been predictably same since the 1990s, would all be ābolder, quicker on their feet, and swifter in playing hardball and retaliating against and beating the rethugs at their gameā …and of course, if not for her sharing that informal family motto in response to helping their young daughters deal with the trauma from vicious racist attacks targeting their family, all would be well with the world today..
And there are those going as far as demanding that she āsit outā the upcoming elections ..As if..
