Schumer has that wierd look in his eyes that I often see in leftists. It is like they have pulled some scheme on you, but they know you won’t find out for several days.

Sinema has signaled she will not vote to end the filibuster. Wonder how Schumer plans to pull this off?

It’s got the RCV provisions in it, just like HR1.

............EVEN IF ending the filibuster passes it would be enjoined 5 minutes later! Meaning a lawsuit is probably already laying on some lawyers desk somewhere.

Chuck Schumer Threatens Deadline, Without Votes, of January 17 to Change Senate Rules for Legislation

January 3, 2022 | Sundance | 185 Comments

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is using the J6 ‘threat to our democracy‘ narrative in an effort to gain support for legislation that will permit the federal takeover of elections.  In a letter today, Schumer sets a deadline date of January 17 for a change in the Senate rules to remove the filibuster.

Schumer writes this letter without actually having the needed number of votes to change the rules, but he’s attempting to create pressure on fellow Democrats.   Full propaganda letter below, but here’s the part that matters:

WASHINGTON DC –  Chuck Schumer is attempting a filibuster Hail Mary as Democrats’ agenda on both elections reform and President Joe Biden’s economic plans remains stalled at the beginning of a critical midterm election year.

The Senate majority leader warned Monday that the Senate will debate and vote on changes to the chamber’s rules by January 17, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, unless Republicans get out of the way on elections reform. His threat seems inevitable, since Republicans are almost certain to block Democrats’ next attempt to bring up their priority legislation. (read more)

As we previously noted, the entire roadmap for Democrats in the 2022 mid-term election is predicated on exploitation of the J6 ‘danger to democracy‘ narrative.  They have multiple approaches, most of which will evidence as efforts in stupidity, toward using the J6 narrative.

With the current landscape of diminished support for Biden and Democrats, and with the Biden administration increasingly looking ridiculous as they try and rebrand their messaging, the political outlook simply does not look *good for their success.  However, it’s likely they will keep trying.

McConnell is as “honorable” as Schumer. Behind the scenes Mitch will engage in any tactic that he sees as benefiting himself. In other words, McConnell is a snake and will always be a snake.

This bill is unconstitutional - the D’s know it, the R’s know it - everyone knows it. It will be byotch slapped down by the USSC when it is brought before them but that will take months. But that is not the play being made by the Ds.

The Ds want the bill to become law before the 2022 mid-terms. The provisions in the bill (no voter ID, anyone can vote, unverified mail-in voting, etc) is probably their only hope of victory. After the mids, especially if the Ds retain power, having the law slapped down is of no concern. It will have done what it is intended to do - insure a D political victory.

And it’s unlikely any of this would be happening if 32 Republicans didn’t vote for the Infrastructure bill.

Schumer is in way over his head. He has always been inept, but he stayed on long enough to rise up thru the ranks based on seniority, not competence.

“Sen. Chuckie Schumer wrote to tell Republicans, who will be destroyed if the act passes, that they’d better pass the act or else he’ll destroy the filibuster and pass the act without them”

Every time I hear one of the Republican pundits tell about how they will retake the House and Senate I believe Chuckles laughs and shuffles the bills he will get passed at the last minute that will allow the Democrats to win a veto proof House and Senate in 2022.

We’ve got to hang on for one more year. That’s how much time the Democrats have left to destroy constitutional safeguards and require mass election fraud like they are trying to do.
