    Default Narrow relief bill victory provides warning signs for broader Democratic agenda

    The relief act’s narrow slog through the 50-50 Senate revealed real disagreements between the Democratic Party’s liberal and centrist wings, as well as Biden’s instincts for procedure and bipartisanship. These and other disputes over the past week on issues ranging from the minimum wage to a new budget director also provided fresh warning signs for the rest of Biden’s priorities, which will require a unified Democratic Party and little room for error against Republican opposition.

    Democratic leaders need to put a heavy hand on Manchin.

    Americans need to put copper-jacketed lead on Democrat traitors.
    Looks like the only way to stop them from perma-fucking up America.

    'Party of No'. Nothing new. May have to take a fresh look at Filibuster Rule.

    The filibuster is anti-democratic. Once you're in the Senate, a simple majority should rule.

    I guess we'll get to see how it plays out. 'The Party of No' is just that, they oppose EVERYTHING.
