BREAKING: Senate Republicans Block Democrats' Latest Effort To Pass Elections Bill

Senate Republicans on Wednesday blocked Democrats from advancing a revised bill to overhaul federal elections, marking the latest blow to hopes of getting voting legislation to President Biden.

The Senate voted 49-51 to end debate on whether to bring up the bill, known as the Freedom to Vote Act, falling short of the 60 needed.

That must’ve really hurt cryin’ Chuck to switch his vote to know. I am absolutely not crushed. However, changing his vote to know gave him the ability to introduce emotion for cloture, which is a nice fancy sounding French word to indicate the ability to quickly terminate the proceedings. This will result in the process moving forward without the bill being past, but it will not prevent it from being re-introduced and passed at a later time. Seeing the fact that the votes were not there to allow for passage of this document, it gives the Democratic Party another shot at a later time. Just because the bill did not pass now does not mean it will not pass later. Theoretically speaking, one way a bill could be passed by somehow making it to where let’s just pretend in a scenario that not all members can be present. This would result in the formation of what is termed as a quorum. At this point, full representation of the House and Senate do not have to be in evidence to pass a bill. Wink wink, nudge nudge, if one is conservative, do be watching for this. If one is not conservative, this could be seen as some sort of secret weapon which really isn’t all that secret. This is why the United States Constitution is so very very very very important for everybody to know about. Unfortunately, our new beloved administration has placed trigger warnings upon the national archives pertaining to our founding documents. The potential exists for many things to happen within the next 20 years. Not the least of these being the wholesale disregard for our United States Constitution because it could be seen as being outdated. Once that happens, it will be those who are for the constitution and its inner workings against those who believe the United States Constitution to be much more than a document to be changed by ratification of amendment, but rather a living breathing document changeable bye executive order or some other means not yet perceived.

Excellent, news. 2022 and 2024 can't get here fast enough. Democrats have lost their woke minds.

[brettschneider]

Who really wants any walking body to be able to vote in America's election. Would you want recent Hatians in it too??

[riverspirit]

Republicans can't block anything..don't be a hater..

[SHOGUNTHEIMPERIAL]
