Erin Schaff/The New York Times via AP The left has been losing their minds at Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) for standing in the way of their power grab and not wanting to blow up the Senate by doing away with the filibuster. Manchin has repeatedly said he will not be coerced into destroying the Senate in that way.
But yesterday, the left went completely over the slide when it appeared that they also might have trouble with another senator: Dianne Feinstein (D-CA). Feinstein said she didn’t see them abolishing it. Asked Feinstein if a 1/6 filibuster would motivate her to abolish the rule: “I don’t see us abolishing the 60-vote threshold. I don’t.” Would she vote to nix? “This is the first time I’ve heard it. No one has proposed it. No one has talked to me about it. So it’s a non-issue.” — Sahil Kapur (@sahilkapur) May 27, 2021 “I don’t see us abolishing the 60-vote threshold.

The Democratic anger in response to that was glorious to behold.
The left, including some of the same people that completely turn a blind eye to Joe Biden’s babbling incompetence and pretend that old Grandpa Disaster is just fine, went after Feinstein with the hook, basically calling her senile. Feinstein is either a straight-up liar or has memory impairment that disqualifies her for her position. The filibuster is one of the most debated topics in the Senate and its abolishment was proposed repeatedly. https://t.co/uH9r4yzfL6 — Sarah Kendzior (@sarahkendzior) May 27, 2021 Feinstein saying that this is the “first time” she’s heard about eliminating the filibster and that “no one has proposed it” is a 5-alarm fire that she needs to retire. Just beyond comprehension. https://t.co/78NycBPbL3 — Brian Tyler Cohen (@briantylercohen) May 27, 2021 god she has become such a joke https://t.co/1MnDY6Cb6J — Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) May 28, 2021 So […]

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
