Yeah, it’s been a lot of edging to see a payoff of sanity.

Do you think they know about whats going on outside their doors though?

Theres still a lot of insanity that needs to be taken care of in some fashion.

question: obviously more states will have their electoral votes objected to. I would assume PA and GA, maybe NV and MI. do we have to put up with 2 hours of debate for every state these clowns want to object to?

Traditional bootlickers are going to be very conflicted today

just ignore this stuff, it's just words

Yup... the clown show just delays the inevitable.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Hawley dump out of it, but not sure about others.

I'm watching the live stream on PBS's youtube channel. I saw the youtube site and said "alright, I'm done listening to schumer" and tried to skip forward...

I'm an idiot.

The rhetoric has always been there to build to something like this. Whether it should have been ignored or not.

The DC police should charge all of the yokels that spoke at that rally for inciting a riot.

At what point do they start getting tear-gassed and pellets?

It's almost like the Constitution and our civil structures are stronger than Trump.

I’m not sure how McConnell is getting any recognition. He did the bare minimum as a human and is only doing it to save his party. He doesn’t deserve credit here, I’m sorry

there's still some area before "not toppling the government" that could have been avoided

The republican argument about "WHAT DO YOU DO WITH HALF THE PEOPLE WHO WHO THINK ITS A FRAUD."

What do you do with the more people that voted for Biden who would then think it's a fraud? Ted Cruz is a POS.

Cruz is a moron.

Massive respect to Mitch here. Glad to see him take a stand. Honestly a really well written speech so far.

It’s not a stand. He has nothing to personally gain by this coup attempt. In fact, *all this* led to his recent demotion. He’s not making a brave choice. He’s saying knock it off or our donors are gonna leave. It’s all theater morkle. Don’t forget it. He’s also not vulnerable to primary, has no presidential aspirations and doesn’t care if the trash people in Kentucky that he pretends to respect start sending mean tweets.

I mean I'm gonna think what I think, and I think it was a good speech.

Please list all the norms he broke, I mean other than the "he appointed people I don't like and used legal senate procedures to do stuff I don't like" ones.

Cruz looks like he's ready to to breakdown the first period of a Pens game on NBC Sports

It was a good speech. And it sounded genuine. I just think he did this not as an American worried about our democracy, but as R who is worried his party is on the brink of implosion
