    Manchin officially to the right of both Bush and Cheney. Hilarious

    Funny how there’s always exactly enough rogue blue-lawn-sign US senators to sink good legislation.

    What “vote blue no matter who to protect abortion rights” actually looks like

      Even if they create a filibuster exception (or kill that fucking thing) and they pass a law - this method is 100% guaranteed failure. The GOP justices will say the law is unconstitional and the GOP easy-peasy kills it dead. The dems will never do it - but to pass a Roe law - they must pack the court first. As far as I know - Kamala and the entire dem machine is pretending that’s not true. Meanwhile the media like MSNBC plays along like passing a law without court packing is possible.

      It’s all kabuki. Everything in the US is so fucking dumb.

    I know endorsements aren’t worth a bucket of warm piss but it’s still funny.
