Democrats, how can you stand the hypocrisy of your party? Granted, both parties have their share of hypocrites, but the Democrats seem to have formed their own club. We've all seen the hypocritical way many Democrats have treated C***d protocols, that they, themselves get caught violating all the time. Now it's the filibuster rule. When President Trump was elected 42 Democrats wrote a letter imploring the Republicans not to do away the filibuster rule. They said the rule makes the Senate a deliberating body and this Rule was the reason the Senate exists, and removal of the rule would be devastating to our (yep, you got it) our Democracy. Now you have Biden, and other Democrats, who have always defended the rule, running around trying to convince everyone that if we don't get the filibuster rule repealed it (yea, you guessed it) will be the end of Democracy. How do you stand it?

I guess they once knew what could actually hurt democracy, but not any more. Yep, they have cornered the market on hypocrisy. I mean corned it!!

And this is but one thing. There are so many more.

It is true, they did away with the filibuster on confirming judges during the Trump administration. But wasn't it a democrat Senate rules change that allowed them to do that???

there are checks and balances already in Congress , plus if a bill gets passed a President has two choices one sign it or veto it, then it goes back to Congress, and must be passed by 2/3rds of the House and Senate to overide a veto, so carving out a fillibuster is not as bad as you say as it has been done before

Perhaps you are just another progressive liar. I can't stand Trump. I believe the filibuster rule should either be made permanent or done away with. I was against the tax cut legislation as proposed. Of course they are against Federalizing the e******ns. I hope they stop i***t Joe from passing anything he's proposed so far. Why is it, you sheeple always believe a bill written by these people is in your best interests?

Passing a huge sweeping change to the Constitution shouldn't be done by any party when the split is 50-50.

That's not true. Story was spun falsely so i***ts wouldn't understand what they are really up to. Where I v**ed they had water coolers and you could bring your own water if you wanted. You progressives are the biggest wussy whiners I've ever listened to.

It is keeping the v**e honest: Prevents 'buying a v**e".

"No person shall solicit v**es in any manner or by any means or method, nor shall any person distribute or display any campaign material, nor shall any person give, offer to give, or participate in the giving of any money or gifts, including, but not limited to, food and drink, to an e*****r," the new law states.

The law applies within 150 feet of a polling place or within 25 feet of any v**er at a polling place. Violators are guilty of a misdemeanor.
