    Senators confirmed Rubio by a vote of 99-0 on Monday evening.

    With the Ohio seat of Vance vacant, that’s unanimous with no abstentions. In case you thought Democrats, Angus King, or even BERNIE were going to stand in the way of the fascist machine 🤬

      Gotta respect those senate norms. Could you imagine what chaos would be unleashed if the dems even pretended to care more about trans peoples’ safety than making sure the confirmation votes are as unanimous as possible? Heaven forbid the opposition party oppose anything!
