Democrats Threaten to Break the Legislative Filibuster by Cheating
January 15, 2022 9:02am
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said he will conduct a vote to "change Senate rules" to prevent a filibuster on the so-called "voting rights legislation." But that is an absolute lie!
Democrats are not seeking to "change" Senate rules. They want to BREAK Senate rules.
When Harry Reid did it in 2013, he cheated to unconstitutionally violate the filibuster rules to get his way. Now Schumer wants to do the same thing.
On today's radio program, I explained the true history of the filibuster, which differs greatly from what the Democrats and their allies in the fake news have been telling you. Contrary to Democrat lies, the filibuster was NOT a creation of the Jim Crow era. It existed at the very beginning of our Republic in both the Senate AND in the House. Seriously. The House of Representatives allowed filibusters until 1841.
I also described the shockingly blatant way the Democrats cheated in 2013 to kill the filibuster for presidential appointments and how Chuck Schumer wants to cheat again to impose loosey-goosey election laws upon all fifty states. If he succeeds in breaking Senate rules to destroy the filibuster, the Democrats will entrench themselves as a permanent majority in Washington where nothing - not even the courts - will be able to stop their complete destruction of the United States as a free, constitutional republic.
All this was explained in detail today on my radio show, which is now archived online as a podcast at www.TheMikeBatesShow.com/podcasts/220115. It’s worth the hour it would take to listen. The details of the Democrats' treachery will infuriate you. But it's necessary to know.
