1. Is Senator Warner still in isolation and not voting? Which Republican didn't vote?
I'm checking the Senate's page but they don't have the roll call yet.

51. Toomey PA has been anti-trump. He gave a speech against the riot. I think Toomey's the new Mit:
I have a feeling he was just looking for a reason to burn the current gop. Just a guess.

I hope I'm not wrong about this, but I'm pretty sure of it.

21. He is a republican. So it is very good that he didn't vote.
By not voting, he gave the Democrats the victory. He surely would have known what would happen.
I am happy that Manchin and Simena stayed home and voted as we hoped. |

cast a vote, she was there to ensure the outcome, whether Toomy was there or not. This is what the majority looks like.

She's not going to be able to get out much! I see many long days in her future.
