      The Blue Slip Rule is not even a law, it’s “unofficial Senate tradition” that cost us a Supreme Court justice. The Democrats repeatedly shelf progressive legislation like student debt relief due to the advice of the Parliamentarian, an unelected appointee who the Republican have regularly fired when their opinion differs from the party’s legislative agenda. I could go on and on, volumes have been written on the phenomenon. How many individual occurrences of this need to happen before it forms the clear composite image of collaboration?

        like student debt relief

        Were you even REMOTELY paying attention during the Biden administration? This is fucking pathetic. You’re so desperate to divide the party and help Republicans you’re OPENLY LYING.

        “Scores” of information, none of which you can produce. You’d make a great Trumper.
