filibuster

Biden may have set unrealistic expectations for the passage of the bill, but the real problem lies in the Senate.

House Republicans were caught privately bragging about how much they love and support the out senator. “Call Kyrsten Sinema and say thank you,” Santorum said.

“I wasn’t out of the closet when I was knocking on doors for Kyrsten Sinema. I believed the lies that Sinema told to get elected, that she would look out for us.”

The trap that Democrats keep falling into is thinking of the Republican Party as a normal political entity. It is not.

Manchin, along with out senator Kyrsten Sinema, not only thinks bipartisanship is possible, but that Republicans are going to defect from the party line to collaborate on Biden’s agenda. Have they not seen Charlie Brown?

If Sinema refuses to go along, she will have the odd distinction of being a sponsor of the Equality Act and the person who singlehandedly ensured its failure.

Thanks to arcane Senate rules, Democrats need ten Republican votes to pass the Equality Act. That’s a very tall order.

It’s done. The high court now has a conservative majority of 5 justices.

Republicans have unilaterally rewritten the chamber’s rules to allow President Donald Trump’s nominee to ascend to the Supreme Court.

Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley started talking Tuesday evening and was still going more than 13 hours later.
