Silent Senators: When Republicans Abdicate Authority

In this episode of Firing Lane, Croaky Caiman tackles the Republican Party’s alarming abdication of responsibility in the wake of their 2024 election victories, focusing on the recent confirmation of Embry J. Kidd to the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. Despite Kidd’s controversial record and the high stakes for states like Florida, five Republican senators failed to show up, handing Democrats a narrow win. Croaky dissects the excuses offered for this absence, critiques the complacency undermining the conservative movement, and explores the long-term consequences of shirking responsibility in governance. With his characteristic wit and sharp analysis, Croaky calls for renewed vigilance, accountability, and commitment to principles, reminding conservatives that the fight for the judiciary—and the nation’s future—requires more than just winning elections; it demands showing up to govern.
