So is the push now going to be for a rule change to effectively eliminate the Senate filibuster?

Seems risky given the pending Red team landslide in a few months...

I'm a couple days behind this, but my goodness was the NFL hearing a complete shitshow. Both parties wanted to tee off on Goodell for everything they don't like about the NFL, but the parties were drastically different on what was pissing them off.

As much as I love hating on Congress, Pelosi landing in Taiwan was a hell of a move. Good on her for going through with it.

I don't think I can take 2 more months of these ads. The anti Cheri Beasley ads here in North Carolina are hilarious lies. They say Cheri supported Biden's plan to raise taxes on all income levels including those making less than $10,000/year and gave big kickbacks to rich corporations.

Are you fucking kidding me?

That Georgia Senate seat seems safely Blue now. Herschel Walker outed as having paid for his girlfriend's abortion. And to think his general mental state was previously his biggest liability.

It was a university, but sometimes you gotta choose between experimenting on dogs and running for Senate.

But Fetterman should be running ads with Oz's face on the soldier killing dogs in Chernobyl.

I need to know if he enjoyed killing the dogs before I render judgment.

What other reason is there for killing dogs than personal joy?

Between this and paying for a friend's abortion, seems like he should do well with AWFLs. Valorizing mental illness, functionally supporting abortion, and if he comes out as suffering from Lupus or Long Lyme, he should be a shoe-in.
