Hiya #SenateDemocrats
Guess you should’ve listened to us when Reid was Maj Leader and repealed #Rule22.
You would’ve only needed 51 votes when YOU were the majority.
Imagine the harm you could’ve prevented if you had.
We can do all of that and more.
But the Dem Caucus in the US Congress is powerless to stop any actions the GOP & Trump want, except for #Rule22 motions, and I've called for this many times recently.
search #Rule22 and you'll find them.
Did you note that Mitch McConnell obsequiously used all the obstruction tools in his grasp (mostly Senate #Rule22) to prevent most of what COULD have been achieved For The People during the 2 terms of Obama?
You can only Fix things if you have a cloture proof majority in the Senate.
Every single #SenateDem should file impeachment charges, one of you every day. Flood the Senate schedule with them.
Use what Mitch McConnell used for over 15 years to obstruct and delay what they refused to accept, #filibuster & #Rule22 every Bill, every motion the GOP members bring to the Floor.
She is already 35 yrs old.
She is eligible to the Office.
SHE WILL FIGHT for #ThePeople in a way no Democratic Majority Leader has done since #LBJ in the 1950s.
Even Harry Reid tried to "soft power" his way through, too often. He should have killed #Rule22 when he had the chance in 2009.
WHERE ARE THE CLOTURE VOTES on Trump's nominees?
The time for #Comity has passed. We are in the #MadMax era now and #Rule22 is the only tool they have - but it's a powerful one.
Big enough to stop the GOP from moving anything forward.
#TyrannyOfTheMinority USE IT!
Senator, you and the rest of @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social
Caucus in the US Senate had better be prepared to go full-on
#TyrannyOfTheMinority a la Mitch McConnell.
EVERY #GOP bill gets a #Rule22 60 vote barrier!
THAT is your mission, should you choose to accept it.
#Rule22 Copy 'n paste is made to ruin every last bit of originality.
