Democrats are considering killing the filibuster to further consolidate their hold on power.

It’s questionable if they have the votes, when folks like Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) is saying that he’s not going to agree to it — although one can’t count on Manchin.

But Joe Biden made it clear during his press conference from his written notes that he (or his handlers) were all for blowing the filibuster up. He agreed that the filibuster was a “relic of the Jim Crow era,” when asked by CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. He had to look up in his notes to know what to say to her and then gave a canned, prepared quote.

 

Democrats are ridiculous. There’s nothing “Jim Crow” about the filibuster. Once again, they want to somehow tag “racism” to a political procedure that has nothing to do with race because they want to kill the procedure; because they have the slimmest of majorities, they want to be able to pass all their agenda items and lock up power for decades.

But if it was so horrible and racist, why have both Barack Obama and Joe Biden lobbied to keep it in the past? Of course, that’s when Republicans were in power and the Democrats were in the minority.

Indeed, Biden in 2005 argued it was one of the “pillars of our American democracy” and that killing it would “eviscerate minority rights.” Moreover, he prayed “to God” that, if Democrats ever took power back, they would not blow it up.

  • obama is knee deep in all this sh*t going on in DC That's for sure and by golly!

  • Well, One thing for absolute certain, Obama has his nose stuck right into all of this bullshit..! Obama has been behind almost all of this and I wouldn't doubt one bit if he is actually Residing At The White House and Even Possibly Acting As President Behind Closed Doors..! The ANTI-AMERICAN Bastard Never Ever Truly Gave Up His Presidency..! He IS A Marxist Bastard and Biden, Pelosi, Schummer and The Other Marxist Left Are Still In Love With The Ignorant SOB..! He Was One Of The Main Characters Working Against Trump Durring Trump's Entire 4 Years..! All He Has Been Doing Is Running From Country To Country Cutting Deals and Was Working Paralel To Trump The Entire Time..! I Believe He Was Also One Of The Top People Along With Hillary Clinton and George Soros In The Steeling Of The 2020 Election..!

  • I guess they forgot that they used the filibuster 314 during Trump's administration.  Now it has suddenly become inconvient!
