Budget Dracula posted:i thought they changed the rules so they only needed the simple majority for everything now? Not yet. McConnell isn't that dumb. He knows anti-Trump fervor + shifting demos + the fact that democrats didn't win the senate/house but they did gain seats last year means the GOP is actually not sitting as prettily as they'd like. Kill the filibuster, the only thing that kept the GOP alive during the early GOP years, and democrats will be able to rub his face in poo poo forever.

Bob refuses to vote for the kill bob amendment. Bob is really holding this whole process up. Something needs to be done about bob.

Squizzle posted:you willing to toxx on it??? The Supreme Court has been stacked and they'll likely get two more seats. They've been testing modern viable methods of voter suppression for the past decade. If they control redistricting in 2020 the Democratic Party might as well disband.

Shalebridge Cradle posted:That's true. I've heard stories that the CIA got some of the the weapons for the bay of pigs from the New York mob It's not more odd than the FBI having mob informants and connections. Intelligence organizations tend to have underworld connections, there's nothing odd or even bad about it. However only the Russians went so far as to integrated the mob, security services, and business. It's a really unique situation.

Being fair the white-minority government put in several measures to prevent the post-Apartheid government having full control over finances and justice in South Africa, so as long as McTurtle fails to use the nuclear option, it could still go better...
