Socalled filibuster rule, which now becomes all the important after todays vote. Excellent. Im not sure ive ever seen Steve Kornacki and his khakis as work on a ranked Choice Voting election so im very much looking forward watching him break this down. I started to write a script about the ranked choice thing, and i did a couple of shots at it and i just went, im leaving that to kornacki. Its just going to be, and heres Steve Kornacki, and go ahead and explain ranked choice. I just its tough. When it comes from the Point Of View of the voter i always thought it should be called One Two Three voting. From the point of voter you dont have to do anything that hard. The hard part to explain is how it gets tabulated. The counting the vote part of it is hard to explain. What you do as a voter isnt that hard. But i bet kornacki can explain that part better. Exactly. Its the counting the vote spot in the script where i just gave up, and you can watch that on tv later this hour. See the point,

While states are back home working hard to suppress the vote or certain votes, should we say, theres not a republican in the senate who wants to even allow a debate on this topic.

Today, every single democratic senator stood together in the fight to protect the right to vote in america. The republican leader uses the language and the logic of the southern senators in the 60s who defended states rights. This vote, im ashamed to say, is evidence that Voter Suppression has become part of the official platform of the republican party. In an unusual move, Vice President harris presided over the senate during tonights vote. Afterwards, she vowed democrats will continue pushing for federal Voting
Death toll from September 11th, 3,103 people in this country died yesterday. The gut punch comes when you realize that Many Americans have almost gotten used to Reading Numbers like that. Actually, four days in the past week have ranked among the deadliest days in this countrys history, ever. The pearl harbor attacks that killed 2,400 people will forever be remembered and described as a day that will live in infamy, as proclaimed by fdr, and in the aftermath of September 11th, president george w. Bush asked for prayers for all of those who grieve for the children whose worlds were shattered that day. Yet today, 3,000 families wake up wondering what life looks like now, today, without their loved one beside them. And we wait for the president or really anyone to acknowledge the somber occasion in any way. No reference to the death toll or to the virus, for that matter, on Donald Trumps twitter field. Instead, tweet after tweet after tweet about the election he lost in the most secure el
