Does a fully PO'd Sass vote to impeach?

Sasse on CBS this am: "The House, if they come together and have a process, I will definitely consider whatever articles they might move."

If most of the other republicans vote to impeach, then so will Sasse.

Ben Sasse, citing conversations with senior White House officials, says Trump was "excited" and "delighted" as his supporters tried to storm the Capitol and was "confused" others weren't so excitedhttps://t.co/elMjfB7lLI pic.twitter.com/arcv72gnvJ

"Rage peddlers" is a perfect way to describe the media who feeds these people with a constant barrage of lies, exaggerations, and misrepresentations all under the guise of keeping these people aggrieved.

Republicans who still think they can get away with wink-wink-nudge-nudging QAnon are dangerously wrong. Here's Senator @BenSasse with a last-ditch plea to his party: https://t.co/AdibH84WSZ

An editorial by Ben for our Sasse-holes. I didn't think it was particularly enlightening in any respect and I felt he included more false equivalencies than were necessary.

I mean it should be an obvious truism that politicians should be aware of the media environment they swim in and shouldn't look to associate with Q or that orbit (or insert other crazy) because it's obviously flooded with misinformation and conspiracy detached from reality and amplifying it shouldn't align with their policy. The more you normalize stuff like this well...the less we even care about trying to have a shared understanding of events.

Sen. Ben Sasse to the Nebraska GOP State Central Committee: "You are welcome to censure me again. But let’s be clear about why this is happening: It’s because I still believe, as you used to, that politics isn't about the weird worship of one dude." https://t.co/WrBxSTZunV

Is Sasse considered moderate, RINO or just a never Trumper?

Those terms are all synonymous (along with Traitor).

it's mostly because ben sasse, and his colleagues, have declined to exercise their article 1 powers.

Sasse starts q's thusly:

Sen. Sasse: "Do you have a theory of why Articles II and III are gaining more power in American life and Article I seemingly is weaker?"

Judge Garland: "That is, I would say, a cosmic question of our civic life. I don't really have an answer to that."

Yeah, I think cowardice is the main answer. Followed by tribalism guess.
