Liberals Have Epic Meltdown On Twitter After Feinstein Defends The Filibuster
2021-06-12
[TRENDINGPOLITICS] When the Democrats took over the House, the Senate and the Presidency after the fraudulent 2020 election, the left was ecstatic. They were primed and ready to stack the Supreme Court
...the political football known as The Highest Court in the Land, home of penumbrae and emanations...
, end the filibuster, skew voting laws in their favor, and add 2 new liberal Senators by making Washington DC the 51st state.

Sadly (for Biden), Joe Manchin
...Dem senator-for-life from West Virginia. Manchin is one of the approximately one Dem senators who exhibits more integrity than Jello, often even representing his constituents...
and other Democrat Senators have been a thorn in their side, promising to never vote to end the filibuster.

Now, Dianne Feinstein
...Dem Senator-for-Life from Caliphornica. She has been a politician since about the time she was weaned. Feinstein was the author of the 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban, and tried it a second time in 2012. Feinstein has chaired the Select Committee on Intelligence since 2009. At age 87.88952, Feinstein is the oldest currently serving United States Senator...
appears to be joining his ranks.

"If democracy were in jeopardy, I would want to protect it. But I don’t see it being in jeopardy right now," Feinstein said when asked about ending the filibuster.

#5  Everyone, even if they don't (do something that will kill the spam filter), should Scarne's Complete Guide to (do something that will kill the spam filter). Possibly the only bathroom book a man needs. The field of mathematical statistics was invented by Dutch guys who rolled cubes with dots on them, and lots of modern, credentialed magic numbers practitioners could both learn and become more humble by reading this book. Scarne's wry introduction to roulexxe - "Many people have asked me to describe a winning system for playing roulexxe. My advice is 'play some other game.'"

#3  Also funny to see lefties who are totally ignorant of how Congress works. Pelosi, as a house member, regardless of being Speaker, would be way out of bounds trying to stiff arm a senator, even from her own party. And, unlike the sh*ttah a$$hole, she knows it.

#1  Pro tip: Any game where the rules change during the course of play is a game you should pass on. Also, never play with anyone who is keen to change the rules in mid-game.
