    It’s what McConnell demanded and got in the senate in 2022. I don’t see any reason why this should be different.

      Yup exactly, shouldn’t be any different. I just don’t have a ton of confidence in the house Dems to actually demand what they want, hope I’m wrong.

        They do have a certain penchant for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, don’t they? It so fucking infuriating, considering they’re essentially the only viable political force in the US standing between us and the Nationalist Christian neo-fascist club that the GOP is turning itself into.
