How Democrats can shut down the Senate

“If Democrats refuse to participate in roll call votes, the Senate will come to a halt for lack of a quorum.”

#DenySenateQuorum

“Article 1, Sec 5 of the Constitution:

a majority of each shall constitute a quorum to do business; but a smaller number may adjourn from day to day, & may be authorized to compel the attendance of absent members, in such manner, & under such penalties as each House may provide”
I would like to suggest people to ask their Dem Senators to #DenySenateQuorum in order to temporarily #StopKavanaugh as long as possible.

Yes there are downsides because it completely shuts Senate down totally however; I’ll take that to possibly save the next 30 years of #SCOTUS
How Democrats can shut down the Senate part II: the majority strikes back

Quorum-breaking can be very disruptive but does not provide a long-term option for blocking a Supreme Court nomination.

“On the third day of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, he referred to contraception as “abortion-inducing drugs.””

(These GOP idiots have no clue what they’re taking about.) huffingtonpost.com/entry/brett-ka…
Like, he has a wife and 2 daughters.

There’s no excuse for this ignorance other than he’s a programmed GOP robot.
So put 2 and 2 together...

Roe v Wade is NOT settled law...

Birth control medication is erroneously considered “abortion inducing medication”....

#Kavanaugh is coming for birth control too.

Open Letter to Times Op-ed Writer: Go Public Now, Before They Bust You thedailybeast.com/open-letter-to…
“If you argue that you’re doing a great job, I should note that Frederick Fleet, the Titanic’s lookout, did ring the doomed ship’s warning bell and shouted to the bridge, “Iceberg, right ahead!” After all, only part of the ship hit the iceberg, right?”
“For all that, you’re not getting any awards. You know what you're doing in service to Trump is morally indefensible, but you’re trying to “But Gorsuch!” yourself out of the ethical sewer. That’s so Swamp.”
