To describe it to other countries it's just unbelievable right now being a citizen in the USA. MOST OF US, want a democratic Republic the way our country was envisioned. Our country is currently ran by large businesses and lobbyists that buy out Senators mostly to block things for the people. A good example is Kyrsten Sinema who since becoming a senator is now against lower drug prices, against breaking the filibuster, and can be seen more with Republicans as of late in speaking than her own party.

While this may seem like no big deal consider that after incredible losses the GOP openly was against fair voting and the first thing they did was on a state level determine you could not vote early for a long time, you had to have approved polling location that were made smaller, voting by mail was made smaller. And the two people in the DNC that want to 'work with the other side' don't seem to give a shit that a Republican has on not a single issue in 2021 voted to help the DNC. So when I hear things like: "It's both sides" or "we have to work together". I reminded firmly in reality which side had an insurrection, and which side helped Trump pass help not because it helped their party, because it was the right thing to do.

Krysten Sinema, I hope she chokes on some caviar in a meeting with Koch.

EDIT MOST Viral:
Thanks everybody. Please, please, please if you live in the SE or a red district and are liberal, your vote does matter. 2020 showed that in Georgia. Please vote in these midterms like democracy depends on it and to get more blue Senators and keep a blue house. Picking up just one or two in Pennsylvania or Wisconsin would be amazing.

The house passed BBB more or less intact. Even the shittiest house dems aren't a problem. It really is Sinema and Manchin.

In the end they weren't the problem: the house passed something, senate is on path to pass nothing, even watered down. Doesn't refute me.

The house caved on not tying BIB to BBB, which kneecapped any leverage they had to pass a decent BBB, hence the inevitable collapse later

I semi agree. But the other dems get in line for voting when it matters with their caucus. Sinema and Manchin give up a middle finger.
