Thanks you to you too.

BTW just got this in email, looks as though he will use the filibuster, thus requiring 60 votes to pass the huge stinking pile.

Mitch McConnell Not Budging One Inch To Joe Biden’s Agenda

(Reuters) – When the U.S. Senate this week votes on a sweeping election-reform bill, Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell will play a role he relishes: Roadblock to the Democratic agenda.

McConnell earned the nicknames “Grim Reaper” and “Dr. No” after establishing a long track record for blocking Democratic initiatives stretching back into President Barack Obama’s second term.

Even now, in the minority, he continues to wield that power, thanks to Senate rules.

McConnell, who has led his party in the Senate without opposition since 2007, has vowed to use the filibuster this week for the third time in a month to prevent debate on a measure intended to enhance voter access to the polls ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.

Some reports that W. Va. Sen Manchin is wavering on supporting nixing the fillibuster. (Hint: it is the first step in the 'Rat plan to overthrow our Constitutional Republic.)
