Isn’t this exactly what they just did to get the debt ceiling increased?

And now its standard operating procedure.

These absolute scumbags.

Their idea of voting reform is legalizing and mandating their preferred methods of fraud.

If they can’t win by the rules, they just change the rules.

This is just red-meat thrown to his crazy-liberal allies. None of this will actually happen.

Dems don’t need HR1 as long as the GOP has governors like Brian Kemp and Chamber of Chinese commerce owned “leaders” like McConnell who will fight the MAGA agenda until they stop breathing.

I believe you are correct. Imagine changing the rules to allow a simple majority to change voting laws. So in January 2023, the new Senate GOP majority votes in mandatory voter ID Laws. Opps, did not see that coming. Just like the rule on judges, never underestimate the RATS ability to shoot themselves in the gonads for a sound bite.

There are hopefully enough adults in the Senate to see this coming and will stop the rush to anarchy this would portend.

Biden supports Senate filibuster exception to pass ** NO VOTING** voting legislation.

Democrats know this their last chance to keep full power for ever by rigging the peons will have no say in the matter.

American Marxism on the march
