Becker News: Republican senators united to deal partisan Democrats and the extremist Biden agenda a critical blow on Tuesday night in an evenly split vote. The Senate vote on the S1. “For the People Act” legislation came down to a 50-50 tie; but the U.S. Senate requires non-budgetary items to receive 60 votes to invoke tie-breaker procedures.
The federal takeover of U.S. elections has been falsely advertised by the radical Democrat media as so-called “voting rights legislation,” although no actual “voting rights” would be denied to eligible American adult citizens under various state election bills.
“Senate Republicans on Tuesday blocked the most ambitious voting rights legislation to come before Congress in a generation, using the filibuster to deal a blow to a bid by President Biden and Democrats to counter a wave of state-level ballot restrictions and fueling a political battle that promises to shape the 2022 elections,” the New York Times misleadingly reported. more here
It’s pretty obvious the Democrats are trying to legalize cheating.
Revolutions have happened for less. Just sayin…
Conservatives really need to take the schools back and to start teaching civics and real history again. That would solve at least half of this shit.
It was just so they’ll have election ad material to lie to people about something else.
Yeah, yeah, the republican senate was fine, more than fine, with trump being cheated out of the election. But they’ll fight when the dems want to change the rules and then kick those republicans out of the senate.
Thanks republican senators. Thanks alot.
The WSJ has an editorial this morning “Joe Manchin’s Voting ‘Compromise.’” Manchin has released a memo in which he outlines what he seems to think are compromises that would bring him and some republics onboard with the bill. It’s extremely duplicitous and vague and would simply be a rationalization to vote for the whole monstrosity.
The editorial is well worth reading.
In the end Manchin is just another piece of shit flim-flam democrat.
Not “republics” – republicans.
