“We are poised to head into May with actually zero Republican filibusters so far,” says @AJentleson. But the GOP won’t budge on key issues like guns, climate and civil rights. “That business has to start very soon,” which means “some kind of filibuster reform has to happen.”

Why does Kyrsten Sinema love the filibuster so much? In the past, @AJentleson says, defending the filibuster "would earn lots of plaudits from the Beltway crowd," but Sinema's approval rating is dipping now: "I don't think that was her plan...a shift is gonna have to come here."

Democrats will do damage to their party and supporters waiting for a bipartisanship miracle to happen. 🆘Stop the madness.

The GQP can’t be allowed to filibuster voting rights. Voting rights need to be protected no matter what happens with the filibuster.

Umm bc yeah or we will never win another election again after the GOP takes the whole thing over by force. Nothing else matters if they don’t protect voting rights NOW
