This Court ruling against the OSHA vaccine mandate, more than anything about the voting rights bill, to me illustrates the profound problem with the filibuster. Bad: A bunch of people will die because of this ruling. But the concern about executive unilateralism isn't crazy. — PolitiTweet.org

Anyway, the filibuster is still dumb! But you either convince the people who hold the marginal seats or you don't. https://t.co/poslDoE09z — PolitiTweet.org

No, Sen. Sinema, the filibuster is not going to curtail an authoritarian president https://t.co/ZxQxj0EotE

So if we need to respond to an emergency like the pandemic, why doesn't congress pass a law? Well because it's incredibly difficult to get congress to legislate on any subject. And in practical political terms, the president's polls stand or rise on "how are things going?" — PolitiTweet.org
