Prior to 1917 the Senate rules did not provide for a way to end debate and force a vote on a measure. That year, the Senate adopted a rule to allow a two-thirds majority to end a filibuster, a procedure known as "cloture."
Came here to post this. We don't have 2/3 of the senate filled with Republicans. Which Democrats voted for cloture, or we're there simply many Dems missing so the 2/3 was upheld by all Republicans showing up and about half of the Dems not where they were supposed to be for the vote?
I was taught about a bait & switch in Utah when on the schedule an Obama care prevention issue was brought up last minute because there was some claim one of the reps had to bring up that would never go anywhere about Barry's birth certificate. Dems walked out after getting some minor win from the committee & started bragging to the news. The head in less than 30 seconds got a unanimous vote to stop Obama Care in Utah & it moved to the floor for a vote.
It was crazy to see that happen. I wonder if something similar happened here?
Expect MASSIVE opposition. He publicly wants to remove toxins from food that are already banned in many nations. Anyone who wants to poison (or already is) Americans will spend immense resources to try and avoid losing that.
The advent of onboarding Tulsi and now RFK jr will be confirmed, truly does make the Super Bowl look like a puppy showππ€£ππ€£ππ€£π
All glory to God.

If you don't know what something is, STOP DROP AND ROLL ...wait, I mean...Don't be too proud to look it up!
Confirm Bobby!

Holding my breath.

Woohoo! Let's get it done!
So to shut up those opposing, were expecting a 2/3 victory in Congress? Did I get that right? That seems a bit optimistic but Im here for it.
Yeah, this doesn't seem like a wise idea. If they need 2/3, then we're screwed, considering all of Trump's nominees are getting barely over 50 votes.
Could the repubs be doing this to keep RFK Jr out?
Senators are tired of RFK jr making them look stupid during questioning. :>)
Ha ha yes true, itβs a strength of his. The TRUTH is a powerful weapon!
-Box of Chocolates that shall not be named...
Still stalling on Kash. Big secrets to hide.
Yep... Cocaine Mitchell just put himself in the cross hairs.
The ONLY Republican NOT to vote in favor if Tulsi.
Gee... I wonder why?
Yes, like whose cocaine was found in the White House? Trump alluded to it being Joe's when he was...
Yoooo...
The advent of onboarding Tulsi and now RFK jr will be confirmed, truly does make the Super Bowl look like a puppy showππ€£ππ€£ππ€£π All glory to God.
Praying for his yes votes. We need him.
Make "People of Walmart" a thing of the past...
There's no hope for Darwin Award recipients tho...unfortunately
