Comedian Rosie O’Donnell in a tweet late Tuesday offered millions in cash to senators who vote against the Republican tax plan.

Her tweet called specifically on Republican Sens. Jeff Flake of Arizona and Susan Collins of Maine. Ms. O’Donnell offered $2 million to each senator to vote no. She then followed up telling Ms. Collins specifically to call if she wanted to negotiate.

Offering money to a lawmaker in exchange for changing a vote, or voting a particular way, is illegal.

[Red Badger]

Is that not considered bribery?

Isn’t it a felony?

Why isn’t she in custody?.......................

[Migraine]

That’s really tough luck, rosie. Senators usually go for big bribes like that. Maybe if you’d have just kept your yap shut and done it under the table it would’ve worked.

What a brutally insane hog she is.

[HapaxLegamenon]

Wouldn’t that be a crime? Didn’t Blago go to jail for much less?

[Red Badger]

They will never arrest her.

Because then they’d have to feed her......................

[ptsal]

sounds like a bribe...

[crusty old prospector]

Silly Woman. They get paid more than that.

[Tzimisce]

Bribing politicians is illegal.

"Obamacare was passed when enough Democrat...."

You mean to tell me this Republican "Tax Reform for the Rich" isn't the first time a bill was passed without bi-partisan support?

[DIRTYSECRET]

I say Cruz takes the money and doesn’t vote her way. Then Paul takes the money and DOES vote her way. Pence then votes. Heh heh.

[alloysteel]

The $2 million was to all of them together, or only to a select and vulnerable few?

Near as I can tell, she still owes the $2 million, because every one of the Democrat Senators voted against the tax reform.

Senator McCain voted “absent”.

“during the election Madonna was offering blow-jobs to anyone who voted to Clinton. Dems will offer anything, and deliver nothing, to get their way.”

I was told by a friend that it wasn’t so good and he still voted for Trump.

[RC one]

she can use that $2 million to pay for her lawyers now.

[Maverick68]

Wanna bet her medicine cabinet looks like the inside of Willy Wonka’s Invention room?

“Silly Woman. They get paid more than that”

First off, I think you owe women everywhere an apology. Secondly, shouldn’t “Rosie” be busy migrating at this time of year?

Fatass Comedian Rosie O’Donnell in a tweet late Tuesday offered millions in cash to senators who vote against the Republican tax plan.

Fixed

BTW, isn't that illegal?

Lock the fat ugly lesbo bitch up

And throw away the key

Without throwing up

[DungeonMaster]

She’s a comedian so it’s her right to entertain, just like Franken.

[jughandle]

They’re leftists, it’s not illegal for them.

[Flick Lives]

Lock her up! In an all-male prison.

That’s cruel and unusual punishment... for the other prisoners.

[dangus]

That’s actually a crime.
