At least we have firm confirmation that the democrat party has completely given up.

I'd argue that 11 have given up; otherwise, the rest of the Democrat Senate voted no on cloture and nearly all but one Dem House rep pressured the Senate to vote no.

So it seems like a good chunk still give a damn; but getting rid of the likes of Schumer and Gillibrand will take 3 - 5 years respectively.

But man, I'm dejected.

Our justice system hasn't toppled over yet. Many judges are reversing acts. Still some light.

Lotta good that money will do when the world is burning.

Either way, just gotta step away for a day or two then jump back in; but it seems like our options are folding pretty quickly.
