However, the bill needed 60 votes to pass cloture, end debate.Embarrassingly, and in a pure political stunt, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer summoned Kamala Harris to the upper chamber in the event she was needed for a “tie-breaking” vote. However, cloture requires 60 votes, not 50, so the optics of Harris only highlighted the insufferable politics.The cloture vote failed 49-51, far short of the 60 votes...

COVID came from a bucket of bat wings in a Chinese wet market. Calling the Coronavirus the Chinese virus is racist. Printing $$$$$ does...
