I had to stop listening because I was grinding my teeth. Don't even want to look at my BP.
eta: Collins of course, good to hear aurelia's update!
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

I was going to post the link to donate to Collins' unspecified Democratic opponent, but it's not working. I'm guessing it's overwhelmed by traffic.

I looked at that link earlier, Dana. There was over the 2 million goal already reached. I'll bet it blows through 3 before the end of the day.

I'm beginning to be afraid that one of these yahoos is going to pay a stupid intern to push the Notorious RBG down some stairs. It wouldn't take much to force her to retire.

Manchin will vote for Kavanaugh. That utter fucker.
Murkowski is a No, but it doesn't matter.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Has a Supreme Court justice ever been impeached? I've read various people speculating on something like that happening if the Dems take back the House, but I wasn't aware of that having happened for anything but Presidents.

I hope Mitch McConnell lives long enough (in moderately uncomfortable circumstances) to see how history will view him. Like, he loses (or quits) in 2020, immediately trips over a turtle (for the irony), and is confined to his bed, unable to talk on the phone or receive visitors, but forced to hear the opinions of historians and disappointed constituents.

I cannot possibly imagine enough Democrats having the balls to make that happen, even if they get a 2/3 majority.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I kind of want to burn down Yale. Is that wrong?
I mean, I know it would be morally wrong to actually burn down Yale. But is it a mistake to want to?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
One Supreme Court justice in history has been impeached in the 1800s, but he was not convicted.
