You guys remember Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, right? He made a total tool of himself during the Kavanaugh hearings so we’re not at all surprised he’s been front and center embarrassing not only himself but the state of Rhode Island as well.
How could they vote for this guy?
Seriously.
Today is Day 1 of the Senate Judiciary hearings on the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. This whole thing is an irresponsible botch because Republicans are desperate to confirm another justice to repeal the ACA, overturn Roe v. Wade, & keep big donors happy. pic.twitter.com/A3UdlBM73z

Huh?
Byron York shut him down.
Posterboard recycled from Kavanaugh hearing. Back side says "Boofing," "Devil's Triangle," and "Renate Alumnius." https://t.co/BAnn626hvQ

Good times.
Sheldon Whitehouse: We're here to talk about healthcare policy and COVID testing and Donald Trump and literally anything but how judges decide cases.

That’s all any of them are doing. This is not a hearing about ACB, this is an opportunity for Senate Democrats to throw a hissyfit.
Nothing more.
Whitehouse calls Judge Barrett "a judicial torpedo filed at the ACA"
— Dan McLaughlin (@baseballcrank) October 12, 2020
He’s just ridiculous.
Whitehouse claims this because Barrett, by writing a book review as a professor criticized the NFIB decision's reasoning https://t.co/6Ipd4UmTuZ

What does the word “Ralph” mean? How about “boofed”?
When you’re a serious person the Am ppl will take you seriously. And you’re not a serious person, Senator.

Not at all.
Thoroughly clownish opening statement by Sheldon Whitehouse

Sheldon Whitehouse trashes Republicans for putting people's health at risk by holding Amy Coney Barrett's confirmation hearting in person…
but he's not wearing a mask.

Sheldon Whitehouse just called Amy Coney Barrett a "judicial torpedo."
