Well let’s see an executive agency just issued an eviction moratorium under public health standards that there is no reason could not be stronger. And dems will control the executive that so that’s good. And the reconciliation option can be used for budgetary or spending issues with 51 votes just fucking send money to people for their mortgages and rent and hospital bills if you have to. There I did it from my couch! Surely the experts can figure it out if they care

 

not with Mitch setting the legislative agenda

 

Yeah any money stuff they could try to force through reconciliation but sadly nothing else will get done in two years because the filibuster is here to stay. So no HR 1, no DC statehood, no court-packing. It’s all DOA.

Holy hell

Oh come on, that’s a joke.


Right?

 

Lmfao

 

Back the blue supporters not really backing the blue anymore are they

 

Did Manchin ever voice full support behind $2k checks? He seems to just tiptoe around it every time he's asked in the articles I've dug up
