The vote fell almost entirely along party lines, with only Sen. John Fetterman, a Pennsylvania Democrat, joining with all Republicans to pass her confirmation 54-46.
With no due respect, fuck Fetterman.
Democrats need to do better.
There’s always that convenient one Democrat that allows them to say “Oh, we tried, but…”
You’re blaming the DNC for Fetterman voting against the party lines.
All while leftist call for the DNC to end closed primaries so we can have more Fettermans and Sinemas.
I didn’t specifically blame anyone. It’s just a frustrating pattern that seems to keep happening.
The vote was 54-46. Fetterman voting with the Dems and 3 Republicans having a conscience still would not have prevented this.
The blame lies with 54 Senators and the President who nominated Bondi.
How has fetterman not been removed from the party and sued to recover campaign funds he lied to get. I don’t buy his bullshit “stroke” changing him to a republican thing
Wait wait wait…
His rationale for turning republican is that he’s had a sudden mental & cognative decline? He’s actually admitted that?
“Hey Republicans, since having a brain injury I now align with everything your Nazi party is trying to achieve…”

He spent the campaign before the stroke talking about how progressive he was and progressive policy was the only path forward…
After the stroke and election, he openly admits to not understanding why people would ever think he’s progressive…
Either he’s lying and it was all scam, or he legitimately doesn’t remember anything about his own campaign and what he was saying during it.
Either is a good reason to kick him out of the party (and office), but Dem leadership has only cared about defending incumbents without question. Because most of the Dem leadership represent voters who don’t agree with them anymore.
So if the party stops blindly defending incumbents and starts having unbiased primaries, a lot of Dem leadership will lose their personal power.
Dem leadership has already lost all power. Speculating on how to fix the party is like talking about how to fix a window on a house that just burned down.
So Schumer and Pelosi arent calling shots?
Did that just happen, I completely missed it…
Last I heard they were still fighting progress and complying with fascists
No, I’m talking about the country. It doesn’t matter what the democrats do; they will never be in power again because you can’t vote out fascism.
Oh ok…
This is one of those things where a brand new account attempts to convince people there’s no way to win and we should all give up.
Not many people fall for that these days, so I don’t think this needs my attention
