Ari Berman on the filibuster vs. US voting rights



Ari Berman @AriBerman

It makes absolutely no sense why Mitch McConnell can confirm 3 Supreme Court justices for Trump with 51 votes to take away voting rights but it requires 60 votes for US Senate to protect voting rights

Yeah, he's got a point. The Repukes have been using the filibuster to BULLY US for way too long.

who originally filibustered the original civil rights bill. They just use the n word in private settings instead of out loud.
