Why are we learning one week later the balance of the Senate could be tipped?
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
So it appears a democrat US senator had a bad stroke one week ago the same day Justice breyer announced his retirement.
They kept this information until it leaked out. Why? They were trying to pretend and tell themselves he would be back to work and just a few weeks.
He has had brain surgery to have damaged removed and the swelling stopped.
Me think it was kept from us because they don't really know and don't want to talk about Joe Manchin and Sinema in being off the hook!
That is big news and just awful for any human being and to not tell the country for a week?
Steve Gruber is covering this on Real America's Voice.
Stay tuned...
Isn't it the job of the State Legislature to find a fitting Candidate then vote then in as a U.S. Senator for NM???
I think that's how we were taught it was supposed to be done....
Been a long time away from home.....
Oh, and look up Jefferson L Byrd on FB, he is one of ours....
Maybe we can get him in.....
All Senators used to be appointed by state legislatures until the 17th Amendment made them directly elected by popular vote AND it also specifically gives the states executive officer (Governor) the power to fill vacancies that occur between elections if their legislature gives the governor that power.

Yeah, that's one POS we need to get rid of.....
Never did like the 17th.....
But I think in the NM Constitution it says that the Legislature still has to directly approve someone for the Gov to appoint......
But I could be wrong......
I'm glad you said "But I could be wrong"
