Progressives want to tighten screws beyond Manchin and Sinema

[Lesh]

Nice of you to admit your desire foe a permanent ONE PARTY far Left state, fucking Communist!

I favor what the majority wants. And the majority wants Dems. If people vote in the numbers they should you lose.

Of course if you change your policies that can change. Nothing permanent about that

They so-called " majority" are nothing but clueless morons like you. ONLY Conservatives are REAL Americans.

Original Story: Progressives want to tighten screws beyond Manchin and Sinema

“Progressives say pressure on Democratic centrists over ending the filibuster needs to move beyond Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema(D-Ariz.).

Manchin and Sinema have earned headlines — and barbs from the grassroots — by putting brakes on filibuster reform and, in Manchin’s case, by opposing sweeping voting rights legislation.
But some on the left see the pair of liberal antagonists as giving cover to other moderates who are in the way, but who have not yet come to the surface with all the attention on the two most visible holdouts.

It seems like there’s definitely a handful of senators who are hiding behind Joe Manchin’s skirts right now,” said Sawyer Hackett, executive director of People First Future, a political action committee started by former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro. “We can’t afford to just sit back and not turn up the pressure on them.

Potential targets to tighten the screws aren’t hard to spot.

One could be Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), who irritated progressives by hugging Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) last year during confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett, former President Trump’s pick to succeed liberal hero Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.”

So, it appears that the Democrat circular firing squad might be starting in earnest, one wonders what the full hit list of Congress Critters-D might look like when all is said and done. The resistance to altering the filibuster by certain Democrat Senators is a boon for Democrats who would undoubtedly regret any changes to it down the road. However it seems that “progressives” still haven’t learned a fundamental lesson that history has been trying to teach them, JUST BECAUSE THE DEMOCRATS WON AN ELECTION DOESN’T MEAN YOUR IDEOLOGY HAS MAJORITY SUPPORT, IT DOESN’T, only 24% of Americans self-identify as “liberals”.

It never ceases to amaze how the far left continues to believe that just because the Democrats won an election that it means that they now have a mandate to foist their funky ideas on the entire population. The far left of the Democrat Party is on the path to ONCE AGAIN ensure that the GOP gets back into power sooner rather than later.

Anyone who decides to embrace Diane feinstein had better be ready to clean adult undergarment droppings off of their clothing. She has apparently gone South into the Badlands of Alzheimer's. I would say they had better forget that one.

There is no compromise with the republicans.

That has been the strategy since ‘08
