What does this mean for votes in Senate now, won’t everything be a tie?

Wouldn’t the governor of New Jersey replace him?

George Helmy will be replacing him.

The governor also mentioned a historic dimension to Helmy’s appointment; he will become the only Arab American currently serving in the U.S. Senate.

Not the best way to break that ground, but still good to see.

He’s apparently Coptic, and their feelings on Palestine can be pretty broad, so we’ll see if he ends up pushing the Senate toward a less pro-Israel stance.

Cephalotrocity ,

isn’t already ties with Kamala getting the tiebreaker?

If that is the case atm Reps win

Right? I am so sick of this Biden guy. I wish his presidency would just be over in a few months!

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Joe Biden?

More like Yo, Bye Then!

Hexbatch ,

He is still setting policy. His speech reflects changes he will not make

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

I already said I wasn’t going to vote for him again.

tlou3please , in In a classified document approved in March, the president ordered U.S. forces to prepare for possible coordinated nuclear confrontations with Russia, China and DPRK.

Isn’t that kinda the whole point of them? I’m more surprised they hadn’t done so already.

jumjummy ,

Exactly. I’m sure they also have plans in case Canada starts to mass troops to invade the U.S.

Anti-Canadian Goose plans are essential!

Nougat , in Schumer floats history-making votes on abortion and voting rights

You don't have to get rid of the filibuster. You only have to get rid of the procedural filibuster. Make 'em stand and talk.

xtr0n ,

Maybe keeping people in office till they’re 80 and 90+ would be less appealing if they had to stay in session for a real physical filibuster?

aramis87 , in New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez to resign from Senate after bribery convictions | PBS News

He specifically chose that his resignation would take effect today, because they a paycheck today. Gotta milk it for every last little bit of cash they can grab!

There are a lot of things worth criticizing him for but I don't think this is one of them. You and I would likely act the same if we had the choice of timing our resignation.

ME5SENGER_24 , in New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez to resign from Senate after bribery convictions | PBS News

He shouldn’t be allowed to resign. He should be removed and barred from holding office. He deserves no grace

Facebones , in Chrystul Kizer jailed for 11 years for killing her abuser

Dude would have gotten like two years for his SA but defend yourself from SA and its over a decade.

For all the lip service America pays to pedos being bad, its shown VERY consistently its real opinions on the matter.

Allonzee ,

We literally have child marriage in some states.

Please, tell people. We deserve to be shamed and judged for the gold plated shithole we are.

Also, we are extremely weird, backwards, and prudish about healthy, adult expressions of sexuality due to our puritcanical roots, so we don’t even have any good to go with the bad. We’re a garbage place with a garbage culture all the way down.
