Senate Majority Leader John Thune said in an interview Tuesday he has made no decisions about bypassing Senate filibuster rules to skirt the normal 60-vote margin required to advance legislation in the chamber. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) said Monday she had White House-brokered “assurances” that the Senate would allow for a “standing” or “talking” filibuster that could allow the SAVE Act, a House-passed elections bill pushed by conservative hard-liners, to be enacted into law.

This effectively kills any chance of getting voter ID and only citizens voting.

It wouldn’t be used in this years midterms most likely anyway. Some Dim judge will say it’s too close to the elections to make changes.

I'm almost at the point where I may never vote again. These cocksuckers refuse to do anything and there are too many ignorant people that keep voting them in.

I'm ready for it all to burn down. Sucks for my kids, but anything reasonable is out of my hands.

I’m going to keep voting, but it’s hard to stay motivated.
It’s quite telling how the GOPe is fighting election integrity. This was a pure swamp move.

We haven't done our bit at the local level to fix it yet.

The RINOs have to be primaried in hard red districts and that means taking over our county level GOP offices.

So your options are embrace the fact that your kids will either capitulate or have to fight a civil war, vote to hold back the commie tide (aka keep doing what we're doing) or get off our asses and go to a GOP meeting in your county to fight them.
