"Sen. Sinema on Filibuster: It ‘Ensures That Millions of Americans Represented by the Minority Process Have a Voice’ "

The Democrats all of them to eliminate the 60-vote threshold, but we know for sure Sinema is a no. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) is also a likely no. There are a few quiet ones, too, like Sinema’s Arizona colleague, Mark KellyLegal Insurrection

 On the filibuster, Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin came through in the crunch - American Thinker   "Almost a year ago, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell agreed with majority leader Chuck Schumer to an equal power-sharing agreement for the upcoming session, reflecting the 50-50 split between the parties (with Kamala Harris as the tie-breaking vote).  In exchange, McConnell agreed to allow the question of the filibuster's continued existence to be brought up to a vote.  He did so because Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema promised not to end the filibuster.  That was an incredible gamble, but, on Thursday, Manchin and Sinema came through on a filibuster vote.  A furious Biden started hollering about the horrors of life without federalizing American elections and made it clear that Democrats will keep coming back.


. . ."Sinema seems to be the only one who remembers and understands why President George Washington hated political parties.

"Sinema also seems to be the only one who remembers that Americans are not robots. We all feel and think differently. You guys would be shocked to know that Professor Jacobson and I do not agree on everything. (Cats are better than dogs, Boss!)"

Democrats Block Plan to Remove Foreign Nationals from Voter Rolls (breitbart.com) . . ."Most recently, Democrats in New York City approved a plan to give voting rights to nearly a million foreign nationals in the city, who only have to prove that they have resided in the U.S. for 30 days. Republicans, Democrats, and naturalized citizens are now suing the city."  Their voters will include those illegals Biden's Democrats are bringing into this country.
