Quoting the president who signed the Voting Rights Act, she tweeted: "'The right to vote is the basic right without which all others are meaningless,' Lyndon B. Johnson said. ‘It gives people, people as individuals, control over their own destinies.’"

She added: "It's time Senate Democrats adjust the rules to protect Americans' right to vote."

How does denying any of the few powers the minority has against the majority, “preserving our democracy?”

Because they run around screaming about this now.

How about we adjust the rules to hang thieves and traitors on the Whitehouse lawn?

How are voters being suppressed when 2020 had the highest voting turnout in U.S. history?

Yeah, I know my question is rhetorical and I already know the answer.

They want to eliminate all voter ID. OK, the next time they fly it will be illegal for the airlines to check photo ID of the passengers.

There is nothing about the filibuster in the Constitution. It's a senate rule. Just saying.

Ballots fraudulently cast take that right away.

Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution of the United States. I have a better idea than “adjusting the rules”. Like trying every treasonous pr!ck behind this effort for Treason. With maximum penalties.

Correct. Now imagine they deep six the filibuster and the Supremes rule that the federal takeover of elections is unconstitutional. Federal takeover crashes and burns and the filibuster is gone. The Dems see this and frantically try to reinstate the filibuster in the fall. The Repubs do not cooperate. And then the Republicans take the Senate in November...

They are D-E-S-P-E-R-A-T-E to get the Cheat Forever Act passed. They know they’re toast if they can’t commit massive election fraud again.

When that 'woman' dies, I vote for a gofundme that will send her carcass on a one-way trip to the galaxy's center black hole.

Nothing that evil should be allowed to remain on planet earth.

So, 81 million votes for Biden, in spite of half the country being denied the right to vote? I’m not sure I buy your story Ms. Bill Clinton.
