If 10 Republicans refuse to support a bipartisan commission to investigate what happened on the January 6th attack on our Capitol, the Senate has one option:
Abolish the filibuster.
Kavanaugh’s testimony was “a disgraceful display of privilege and partisan fury, reflecting his belief that he—not the women who have been publicly demeaned, smeared, and threatened for coming forward—is real victim in all of this.”

@neal_katyal

In case you were confused about their priorities — instead of an eviction moratorium, unemployment benefits, and election funding, the Senate bill has $7,000,000,000 set aside for military helicopters, ships, and aircraft.

If Trump spent as much time on protecting our elections from Russian interference as he does on his hair, then our country would be better off. But hey, he tries like hell to hide the truth.
