    Turns out the guy the right has been grooming as the next golden boy is really just a right wing hack. But what will Collins and Murkowski do about it?https://twitter.com/charlie_savage/status/1030246954817736705 …

        Nothing. They are kompromat complicit as well... at least Collins. I think Murkowski might have some free though... “might”

        They won’t do a damn thing. Dems need to stop treating Collins and Murkowski as our only hope. They won’t be our savior, and neither will Manchin.

        Murkowski will play her usual game of "look how independent and tough I am" and then she'll vote party line all the way, per usual MO.

        Not just a hack, looking at his case arguments he’s an activist judge making his judgements based on his own personal beliefs and then finds laws and past court decisions that help support his conclusion. His dissent in Hargan v. Garza makes it clear that this is the case

        Replying to @WalterFBiela @emptywheel @jdubya65

        His Hargan v. Garza dissent was disgusting, it absolutely disregarded established law by citing an immigration law that had absolutely no relevance to case. He isn’t the least bit qualified to be a Supreme Court judge, he shouldn’t have been considered to be a judge period
