minus-square@barneypiccolo@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish2•2 months agoMitch McConnell had the benefit of dealing with weak, spineless Dem weenies who would roll over for him, even though they had majorities. MAGA Nazis aren’t going to be cooperative.
minus-squareRefurbished Refurbisherlinkfedilink4•2 months agoWell it’s a sure thing that nothing will happen if they don’t try.
minus-square@finitebanjo@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilink1•edit-22 months agoHe filibustered. Cabinet Appointments cannot be filibustered under current senate rules. Same for SCOTUS judges. He did filibuster Public Option into the grave, though.
minus-squareRefurbished Refurbisherlinkfedilink1•2 months agoSince when did the Republicans give two shits about some bullshit “senate rules?” They just change that shit whenever it suits them. So do the same.
