Update:Just six, Mr. Manchin, count them! Only six "good, solid patriots" voted to save our Republic from fascist plutocrats. You do not have to be Sherlock Holmes to surmise there were supporters of the coup lodged in the Senate chamber. What is it going to take for you to support your Democratic party colleagues? If you cannot wake up from your bipartisan daydream to eliminate the filibuster all together, just support an exception for civil rights legislation like the federal election standards bill (For the People Act). As you well know, the filibuster is used to block civil rights legislation. Otherwise the plutocrats will "destroy our government". US Person thinks you could "sell your soul" for a lot less than democracy, Senator!
Repugnants, led by the intransigent bourbon Mitch McConnell, are preparing to filibuster the 1/6 Commission; even their fellow traveler from West Virginia is frustrated by the craven obstruction. As usual, Repugnant opposition is partisan--the inevitable investigation fallout may implicate the cult and its leaders with sedition, wrecking their chances of resuming control of Congress. In other words, democracy, truth and the "American Way" be damned and embrace the Trumpian lie. The crazy is spreading beyond Arizona's private 'audit' in the conniving hands of MAGA grifters to Michigan, Florida and Wisconsin. Unless Biden puts Manchin and his colleagues in line, to either: a) end the filibuster and/or b) pass his economic agenda and federal voting rights bill, his administration will end in disaster, and the party of sedition will then be able to "destroy our government".
