Schumer

Politico: Chuck Schumer controls the future of the filibuster. Dems aren’t sure what he’ll do. Senators are starting a flurry of bipartisan talks. But ultimately it's Schumer who will have to decide. By BURGESS EVERETT and MARIANNE LEVINE

THe GQP has basically moved ahead in the States it controls to crush the right to vote for many that oppose them. The Dems. not just Chuck Schumer have a hard choice to make. Allow the GQP to obstruct everything the Biden admin. does or push ahead by gutting the present Filibuster rule. The GQP will NEVER allow Hr. 1 or S1 as it's called in the Senate to pass with 60 votes and if it fails then the GQP will probably regain control of the House in less then 2 yrs. If that happens the Biden admin. like the Obama admin will be a lameduck affair the next two years. It's really up to Biden and Schumer. Right now for the most part you have GQP rule by filibuster.

Given what we are seeing from the GQP it's seems more and more clear that the filibuster has got to go. The GQP is pushing the limits of authoritarianism and that can't be the direction the country goes in.
