Seriously it will not kill you to support some kind of political opposition to authoritarianism flirting with nazis.
I'm always amazed this site is a bunch of left of center folks and yet your words and actions are always in favor of republicans destroying progressivism.
How is being a doomer working out? You guys gaining any ground on not getting deported or detained for 1st amendment rights?
You think this is doing nothing? So you're telling me the republicans have no pending legislation or nominations they are trying to pass this week? You don't think they have an endless list of bullshit to pass. Any time taken away from them being able to screw us over is good.
You're making me a doomer tho chill.
Ah yes, a real heritage foundation constitutionalist here folks.
Yes The glorious US government of 1850. What was it that happened 11 years later? Are we even the same government at this point?
Has the filibuster been used in different ways since that time. 2008-2016, they just said filibuster and no one even had to hold the floor, the bills would crumble.
let these fuckers cook and pray they can hold the floor for 2 years.
