Far-Left Bernie Sanders Reaffirms His Support for Ending the Filibuster
Breitbart ^ | May 31 2021 | JACOB BLISS

Posted on 05/31/2021 11:21:43 AM PDT by knighthawk

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) released a statement late Sunday night reaffirming his stance on ending the filibuster, saying the Democrats “must abolish” it.

“Let’s be clear,” Sanders wrote. “If 10 Republican Senators cannot even vote for a bipartisan commission to investigate the January 6th insurrection, 10 Republican Senators will not vote for anything meaningful to improve the lives of the American people.”

The only way forward, he asserts, is for Democrats to “abolish the filibuster” while they have the chance.

Communists are only looking for a one time, simple majority vote FOR Communism in the USA and then future elections in a Peoples’ Republic will be moot.

See Venezuela for a recent example.

You're such a dumbass Bernie. The American people are tired of Democrats fabricating witchhunts when there are real problems to be address, yet you insist on wasting time and taxpayer money. You're just too dumb to see it, you twit.

What do you expect from a stupid Bolshevik who never worked a normal job and has no skills other than demagoguery?

Bernie should had followed his older brother and relocated to London, England. The Brits are statist, that’s what Bernie prefers.

I’m all for getting rid of the filibuster but it should include a Senate appointed by the state house. Globalist Senators who represent the collective and not their state should be blocked and slowed down at every turn

LOL! Bourgeois Bernie.

“According to this, bourgeois society ought long ago to have gone to the dogs through sheer idleness; for those of its members who work, acquire nothing, and those who acquire anything do not work.”

Communist Manifesto; pg 44

It was never, ever going be "bipartisan".

100% of those appointed would be denizens of The Swamp.

(An "insurrection" by cheated voters armed only with iPhones and buffalo horn hats would the dumbest idea anyone has had in the last 250 years.)

“Let’s be clear” Bernie as your favorite Commies might say, you and your agenda and your Berniebots have been swept into the dustbin of history by the Modern Corporate Rat Party.
