    I don’t care if it’s cloture or the actual bill itself…

    There should be zero Dems voting “yes” on any-fucking-thing these MAGAt bastards want.

    Blatant and complete obstruction is the only way to play this hand for the foreseeable future.

    Those Dems that do vote yes… 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕

      Cloture vote required 60 for passage, final passage is only a majority. Cloture is literally the only time the minority party can assert itself, and they just gave it up.
