As we will vividly and long remember Maine Sen. Susan Collins' (R- Coverup) infamy, we must never forget the primary villain in the sham fig leaf "investigation" designed to not uncover corroborating evidence from victims of serial sexual abuser and blackout drunk Brett "KavaNut" Kavanaugh: the soon- retiring Faux Hamlet of the Senate, the pious fraud (and aptly named) Sen. Jeff Flake (R- Hypocrite). Alec MacGillis reminds us of another instance (out of many) where Flake postured as a thoughtful, sensitive guy before falling into line with the rest of his simian brethren:
Flake two days ago, on Kavanaugh's partisan fire at hearing: "We can't have that on the court."— Alec MacGillis (@AlecMacGillis) October 5, 2018
Flake today: yes on Kavanaugh.
Flashback to 2013. Flake in handwritten note to mom of Aurora victim: I'm for strengthened background checks.
Flake a few days later: no on BG checks.
You can also add Flake's flip flop on the Republican wealthfare tax cut for corporations and the 1 percent and his flip flop on immigration reform to the list of issues he's wrung his hands over before proceeding to cast votes that ran counter to his professed "concerns." We can't say it enough: he's a fraud and a phony.
It's unfortunate Delaware Democratic Sen. Chris Coons got suckered into giving cover to Flake's call for a "supplemental" FBI investigation. He counted on a good faith understanding with his "friend" Flake that more witnesses would be interviewed, when in fact none of that would happen (undoubtedly with Flake's knowledge and agreement). Flake and his fellow weasels willfully stole a Supreme Court seat from President Obama; Coons should have known better -- there's no honor among thieves.
