Building consensus and negotiating are dying political skills, but necessary for our democratic republic. The filibuster ensures that 51% can’t cram down decisions on the 49%.

Biden already said he's against removing the filibuster. So that won't happen. 🤷

@UN #OpenTweet to @antonioguterres 'We all must improve a foolproof for a nuclear football' - #JEHOVOX P.S. In a broad sense, we must improve the international & democratic means to sharply limit the possibility of using weapons of mass destruction at the evil will of any person

It already has dented it. Have you not noticed how damaging the "Filibuster" has been since the early 20th century? Mast. Mitch is the single biggest abuser of it and the biggest liar in the Senate

Truly, it’s coming into clearer and clearer focus: the filibuster is being used as a tool of injustice. And people ought to wage peace by raising noisy righteous hell in the home districts of elected leaders who rely on this Senate rule to protect an unjust and ugly status quo!!

Some people would be okay with killing democracy.

Filibuster reform is actually much better than abolishing it. Frankly, the Dems shouldn't desire to remove something that will help them past 22' when they'll be a permanent minority for fucking over voters.

Let’s go a step further. Abolish the senate, it’s inherently anti democratic.

They won't kill the filibuster. It's the perfect excuse to do nothing. And doing nothing is all they're interested in.
