70. Collins, Manchin suggest they were misled by Kavanaugh and Gorsuch on Roe v. Wade

OK, so they said they feel misled. I'm not a politician, but I can see that the Republican promoted justices lied like 40 going North.

So what can we do? If we are truly outraged by the Supreme Court's recent ruling, we need to get out and vote! Get the Democrats elected so that we have the majority in the House and the Senate. Then, once we gain control of Congress, buckle down and decide what we want to get done - and get it done. Democrats and Independents have tried to play fair - only to get blind sided and screwed by Republicans. Enough already! The Republican play book has not changed in decades. Democrats, let's please push forward, gain control of Congress, and get things done.
