John Thune is the R Senate Majority Leader who would have choreographed that one.

Those votes are heavily orchestrated by the SML, in this case John Thune. Leadership goes to cat herders.

Your scenario is possible, it might just be in pockets, not a nationwide, coordinated thing.

In what way would these selections constitute something, “really bad”?

I think that’s the point: a legit investigation is the grown up thing to do.

It’s more common than I had thought, and reasons are variable. Joshua Coleman offers some excellent observations on the subject in a couple of YT videos.

Thank you @stephruhle.bsky.social for your grillwork! These legislators all need to be seared for their lack of courage in standing up to Trump’s insanity and chaos.

I'm interested that he quotes a female theologian; in itself, that choice sticks a finger in the eye of the myriad male pastors who ask that in matters of spirituality, women submit. I look forward to readin Barbara Brown Taylor. :-) barbarabrowntaylor.com

Further, there were SO MANY failures in the chain of contact with Jane Doe: the doctor, the campus police, the DA, university leadership. It’s extraordinary.

You have clearly haven’t read the timeline at all closely and missed the myriad points at which the doctor, police, DA and Cornell failed to act on her very clear testimony. Take your rapist defense elsewhere

There are some really heartening profiles of her - I think @TheAtlantic did one in the last few months, and she's written a memoir. As more women come forward with these cases, we can start to shift awareness. But yeah, this shouldn't be a thing. 😭
