The filibuster must be ended. SCOTUS must be reorganized.
Manchin and Sinema need to get on board with this.
They are actively helping the fascists destroy and take over our country.

The Department of Justice investigation into Donald Trump's conspiracy to overturn the 2020 presidential election with phony electors continues to heat up and now includes another top GOP leader.
"Arizona GOP Chair Kelli Ward and her husband Michael — who were among the false pro-Trump electors — have received grand jury subpoenas, according to a source familiar with the matter," Politico's Kyle Cheney reported.
On Wednesday, the FBI reportedly executed a search warrant on Michael McDonald, the chairman of the Nevada Republican Party.
Georgia Republican Party Chair David Shafer was served with a subpoena.

I love President Biden.
All of our Democratic party leaders need to start speaking out, and acting, against the rapid spread of violence and fascist terrorist threats of violence against LGBT+ in the United States.
First they came for the LGBT+....and?
Biden Celebrates Pride Month Amid Attacks on LGBTQI+ Communities
President Joe Biden said he’s marking this year’s Pride month celebration with more than rainbows and decorations. On Wednesday, he signed an executive order aimed at combating bills opposed by LGBTQI+ communities that have been introduced in state legislatures across the country.
The administration says the new order takes steps to advance equality and address discrimination, including preventing so-called conversion therapy that seeks to change the sexual or gender identities of LGBTQI+ youth.
“Today, I'm about to sign an executive order that directs key federal agencies to protect our communities from those hateful attacks and advance equality for families," said Biden. "My order will use the full force of the federal government to prevent inhumane practices of conversion therapy. This is the first time the federal government is aiming a coordinated response against this dangerous, discredited practice.”
June is the month in the United States when LGBTQI+ communities celebrate their equality and increased visibility. Rainbows are seen as a symbol of the wide spectrum of human sexuality and gender identity.
