"In pivoting so fully to voting rights from his recent efforts to pass a major social spending..."

1. No, no, no.

It's now or never.

2. More than a few fires need putting out right f'ing now.

Joe's got this.

3. Risk losing democracy...risk legislative "setback"...tough choice eh?

Think m going to go with the first risk taking if fascists don’t mind, says Biden.

Or even if they don’t think Biden welcomes their anger.

After all…what is the counter argument from the 50 Republicans to expanding voting rights??

Anyone ever ask them instead of US? We already know why it’s needed…why is it not?

4. Sadly, not getting these things done, will not bode well for us Dems in November.

For all practical purposes the mid terms are tomorrow. More wrangling for months, even with the best of intents, but no success may not cut it for a lot of swing voters. I can't believe they will see the Repugs as a better alternative but I think so many are not really voting for someone as voting against the folks they see as not getting things fixed. Or they are so disillusioned they just won't vote. It speaks volumes the voting right groups in GA not going to Biden's speach on voting rights because they "want action, not platitudes". Manchin and Sinema have done damage that will take the Dems a decade or more to recover from, assuming we get the chance again given the gerrymandering and election official appointments the Repugs have put in place in so many states. Troubling times...

7. Money going to Afghanistan isn't going to help either

Regardless if it saves lives. The right wing machine only needs a short sentence and they pound it into peoples heads.

8. Sad but true. Repugs have the art of the sound bite down.

10. +1

5. Two stubborn and corrupt elements in the Senate are holding up both bills

I don’t think there is a viable solution to either problem thus killing both bills for the foreseeable future.

6. Voting Rights is do or die

Gary Peters was on the Madison Show this morning - and he really broke down as much as he could on their strategy -

Without showing the Democratic Party's hand.

9. It may be too late to pass it and implement it in 10 months.

Only 6 months to our primary election.
