Performative garbage, they had a chance to actually prevent it and they folded.
It's the ONLY productive thing they can be doing. Prevent republicans from using the congress. They only want to use it to give the power of the people to ELon musk.
This SHOULD have been done to stop the last CR. Democrats had a chance to present a united opposition with both the Senate and the House but threw it away. This is not the ONLY productive thing they could be doing, it's the only legal thing they can do. Democrats are still playing by the rules and following decorum. Americans are angry many seem to be starting to realize they were sold a culture war when what they are actually fighting is a class war. Until the messaging becomes that of a class war Democrats will not be able to capitalize on the anger.
Class waaaaaaar!!! CHARRRGE!!!!
Well said. If you listen to the filibuster its full of populist lust for justice and compassion. I'm hoping this is where the anger and hope mix and we can start working on saving this country. least what we can.
