[MarineCombatEngineer]

What a waste of perfectly good O2.

[True Blue American]

9. How did Rand vote?

[MarineCombatEngineer]

11. He punked out and voted present.

Another POS waste of O2.

[appmanga]

22. He voted against the PACT Act...

...how can anybody who has a pulse lose to this clown? Charles Booker just has to make ads of Paul's speeches.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

24. Beats the hell out of me how anyone can take this idiot seriously, nt

[3catwoman3]

26. He is a punk.

And an insult to the Hippocratic Oath.

He took the Hypocritic Oath.

[secondwind]

[Lovie777]

6. 3 are missing . . ..

[JoanofArgh]

10. Probably out of town or something. Happens all the time.

Why does this matter? It passed!

[BumRushDaShow]

29. Here is the treaty and roll call

Protocols to the North Atlantic Treaty of 1949 on the Accession of the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden


ROLL CALL OF OTHER THAN YAY (from here)

NAYs ---1
Hawley (R-MO)

Present - 1
Paul (R-KY)

Not Voting - 3
Cornyn (R-TX)
Leahy (D-VT)
Merkley (D-OR)

[Wednesdays]

39. Leahy is still recovering from hip surgery.

Cornyn tested positive for Covid on August 1. I haven't found anything to explain Merkley's absence.

[BumRushDaShow]

40. Yeah I figured Leahy's hip would keep him away

but I missed that Cornyn tested positive!

I couldn't find anything on Merkley either despite him doing press releases about legislation today.

[Tanuki]

41. He tweeted that he went to Oregon last night to be with his mother, who is likely dying.

49. Do you know if Leahy is healing?

[Baked Potato]

7. Hawley: Verb, to intentionally strike oneself forcefully in the groin.

Sometimes: To commit political suicide.

Usage:

“Dayum! That mutha-fucka just Hawley’d himself bad just to get some clicks”

“Rand Paul Hawley’d huge by saying ‘Fuck you!’” to America’s veterans.

[MyOwnPeace]

33. Problem is, times being what they are.....

there's WAY TOO MANY that will vote them back in again - having NO CLUE as to the damage these two idiots have done to the Constitution, they country, and even their own welfare!

[Baked Potato]

47. Agreed! They reap the benefits of Democratic programs and

vote R, knowing their personal livelihoods won’t change.

[True Blue American]

50. I am amazed at how

Many well educated people do not have a clue of what is happening in our Government, do not care to learn, yet vote.

I have had them say they are a Republican or Democrat but have no idea who is running.

I had one person who asked,” Who is that goofy looking guy in glasses?” I said,” That is your Governor, Mike DeWine!” Yet that person claimed they voted.

[True Blue American]

8. Tom Cotton spoke out

Loud and clear how much we would gain to have Finland and Sweden in NATO. It would help with shipping, they have advanced technology. He was the complete opposite of Hawlin’ A** Hawley.

How that man can stand in the Senate and act like he knows anything is beyond me. He has no shame.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

13. Well, you do have to have a soul to have shame,

and we all know Hawlin Ass Hawley has no soul.

[Javaman]

16. Cotton might be a class A asshole

But he’s a vet and knows the importance of NATO

[MyOwnPeace]

34. And THAT makes it even MORE puzzling......

How can this frickin' idiot take the positions that he does based on his 'Military background' AND his 'Educational background?'

[True Blue American]

51. So is Hawley!

That is why he looks so bad. He is shaming the Uniformhe once wore for a lying draft dodger!

[Javaman]

54. wow, I didn't know he was...

what a fucking asshole.

[True Blue American]

55. I was wrong. Hawley did not serve

His Sister did. Tom Cotton served. He spoke out for the bill. Sorry. But look at his History. Dan Coats endorsed him, said it was the worst mistake he ever made.

[thenelm1]

44. Hawley would have voted against Missouri statehood back in the day.

Being the contrarian ass that he is.

[The Unmitigated Gall]

14. Somebody post the photo

Of Tim Curry standing on the Red October, telling Sean Connery “You will receive the Order Of Lenin for this!”

[MarineCombatEngineer]

19. Here ya go.

[The Unmitigated Gall]

35. Just as I remembered it.

Thank you Sir!

[IronLionZion]

23. Roll Call Vote:

https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1172/vote_117_2_00282.htm

Josh Hawley and Rand Paul are Putin's useful idiots.

Cornyn, Merkley, and Leahy didn't vote. Leahy is recovering from surgery. I believe Merkley is out of town helping his constituents.

Hawley might be running for president on a pro-Putin platform. He should just keep running all the way to Moscow and stay there.

[dchill]

25. Lord Haw-Hawley keeps begging to be recognized for his...

...treason.

[ZonkerHarris]

28. I see what you did there. Well done. William Joyce is a deep cut.

[Grokenstein]

32. Nice. I once called him Hee-Hawley but this is MUCH better.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Haw-Haw

[dalton99a]

27. Stupid traitor.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

30. Hawley and Paul, Putin's patsies

[ShazzieB]

31. Excellent! 👏

Where NATO is concerned, the more, the merrier, imo!

[Bread and Circuses]

37. Josh Hawley Russian Asset

Russia swooped in to push him over the top to beat Claire McCloskey.
He is owned.
