Yes it was Harry Reid, I remember going this will come back and bite them in the ass. You young one. Go ahead and do what you want. Biden has screwed up worse in one month, what took Obama 8 years to do. So whatever Harris does, it won't take Trump a month, to do away with it.

Under Harry Reid the Senate became known as the place where legislation went to die. If the Democrats want to go down this road so be it just remember when the pendulum swings back the other way this was what you wanted.

The pendulum isn't swinging the other way, ever again for currently established Republican party.

Seriously. It's been republican scorched earth since Obama became president.

All his speech told me was how terrified he is of democrats removing his power of being the grim reaper of legislation. He and the republicans have been abusing the filibuster for years which has resulted in destroying democracy in our senate.

Here's a suggestion, if he would stop the non stop filibuster the democrats wouldn't have to change it or get rid of it.

The only thing worse than screaming about the ump when you lose is changing the rules when you win.

Just leave it like it is. Its our system. It's served us well. Reinstate earmarks. Get back to politicking and lets go from there.
