“The shitshow that is supporting Israel during its accelerating genocide, I won’t defend all that much. But the overall attempt to paint him as the same as the average Democrat is dead wrong.”

Won’t defend it all that much? So there is a defence even though they admit it’s an active genocide. Amazing

    This is my favorite one

    Did you know: In 2001, then Parliamentarian Robert Dove determined that Senate rules allow only one budget bill per year related to revenue to be immune from filibuster, a process known as reconciliation. Later that year, Dove ruled to remove a Republican provision to allocate over $5 billion in the 2002 budget for natural disasters.

    He was then fired by (conservative) Senate Majority leader, Trent Lott.

    The position serves ENTIRELY at the discretion of the Majority leader. Chuck Schumer could have just fired that asshole and stuck in someone who agreed what libs wanted to do was fine, and they had precedent for that literally less then 20 years ago.

    They never wanted to do anything she shot down.
