It is great. I mean, a lot better than it could be. But this means people like Joe Manchin have the most power in the Senate. And people like Sinema. You know, the ones that sided with Trump/McConnell pretty often.

Still better than Mitch the Bitch.

totally agree. so much better.

LAW AND ORDER!!!

I never thought I would see a couple hundred people storm the capital building to try and over throw an election in this country. One party's supporters regularly throw out "We can't turn into Venezuela, and that will happen if Democrats run this country" as they actively behave like they are in Venezuela.

They just had to quickly remove Pence from the Senate floor for his safety. WTF.

The capitol police have just locked the Senate in the room.

This is crazy. Are we Venezuela or the United States of America?

These people need to be processed and jailed.

The elected officials egging this on need to be charged.

yes. beat me to it

Trump called for a wild protest and DC knew it was coming. DC called in the National Guard and still somehow these guys have been able to storm the Capital building. Reinforcements have been called in and a 6PM curfew has been called. Trump could stop this in one Tweet if he wanted. He won’t. He loves this.

They just had to evacuate the entire Senate.

He just tweeted again and egged them on while they are doing it.

Now someone took his account and tweeted something to try and calm people.

"For me, the through-line is: If it’s entirely based on a single person’s personality, or reputation, when that gets hit, everything falls apart".

"The reason I want that to be emphasized is that it can be undone just as quickly and as effectively as we did it (overcoming voter suppression). It’s important that we understand that voter suppression being stopped is why they are so mad".


"However, we must be vigilant to ensure that successes in mitigating obstacles do not return with a vengeance in GOP-led legislatures".
