fillibuster at any time. All they need is 50 votes (there are 53 Rs). Vance can be the tie-breaking vote. Then they can pass whatever legislation they please.

The dirty little secret is, Rs don't want to pass this bill because if they did, they'd get 100% of the blame for the bad consequences of their actions.

and full blame.

change to eliminate the legislative fillibuster.

This perhaps would be short term pain, but when Dems retake control of the Senate, it would be long term gain. No longer would liberal, progressive and common sense legislation be held hostage to the tryanny of the minority.

and even if they did, we would see abortions and same sex marriages "officially" (legislatively) banned, and all kinds of other draconian things implemented. But I expect 45 would eventually try to force Thune to do it, so I would let the GOP completely own it and not have our name attached to encouraging it (especially when you have John Roberts calling the shots).

to impeach your fucking authoritarian fascist wanna be KING.................nope...............and then you have a court mind you that supports your wet dream..............and gave him immunity and use the shadow docket to really fuck with the rule of law................and then to top it all off ...............you have health care while you want to fuck over 17 million plus people/kids and then attack those of us on Medicare next year.............and you want cloture.....and you want a democrat to play nice..............pound sand and resign.................

How isn’t this point not brought up?!? We don’t have a budget and half the government is not even in session. Republicans aren’t serious about this situation and no one is calling them out. What a surprise
