Biden on voting rights: "I'm not gonna lay out a strategy in front of the whole world and you now".

[speak easy]

I have heard Chuck Schumer and Amy Klobuchar say the that HR.1 & HR.4 will pass Congress and be enacted.

When they do so, interviewers usually turn to the latest comment by Manchin, and general discussion of the filibuster.

I don't know what discussions are taking place behind closed doors amongst Manchin, Sinema and the leadership. And neither do the pundits.

What I do know is that Schumer and Klobuchar are saying - without qualification - that the Bills are going to pass. And what I am seeing is something more than confidence - it is the demeanor of predators stalking their prey.

The leadership have runs on the board. I am more than prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt without all the gory/tasty details.

1. I would love to see HR1 pass, but I don't have much confidence that it's going to pass

"Constitutional Muster" according to Boofin' Brett and the Handmaid, et al.

That bill passes, it will be at SCOTUS very quickly.

I don't have much hope that much of it will remain after that trip.

I say this very sadly and angrily.

4. I'm very sorry to hear it. What parts

Do you think will be litigated?

[Hugh_Lebowski]

6. The parts where the Federal Government tells the States how they are to conduct their elections? nt

[mahina]

9. Marc Elias said tonight on Rachel that it would help

Tremendously.

But I see your point. We’ll see.

Is there any other remedy to 43 states going fascist?

[Hugh_Lebowski]

10. I hope it would help, and would be great if so ... I just have no faith in this bunch at SCOTUS

and it's infuriating that they have a 6-3 advantage via such shady f***ing means.

I don't know that there is any other way, and we have to try and hope for the best.

If Marc has confidence that gives me hope, thanks

[mahina]

15. Hope

And open eyes.

The SC wouldn’t let trump have his way. We have to hope.

Maybe the Rs will die!

2. Yes..saw Amy K on Rachael just last night. She said they have a plan that is workable for passage

She’s not one, nor is Schumer to just give lip service

Great analogy “the demeanor of predators stalking their prey”

[speak easy]

3. "the demeanor of predators stalking their prey"

- that's what I saw on that interview with Rachel. Amy was not just up for the fight - she was relishing it.

5. 🐢 soup, perhaps?

[speak easy]

7. I think the Senator has her sights set on something a little bigger than turtles :)

[OnDoutside]

8. Jason Johnson was Finally the first person to point out that HR1 and VRA

helps Manchin above all in a Red State where Jim Justice is already eyeing Manchin's Senate seat, last night on MSNBC.

13. Interesting point.. TY

11. Gee. I wonder why?

TY for this, Speak Easy!

Who is "you"?

[speak easy]

12. 'You" are/were the nest of vipers,

who like to think of themselves as the Washington Press corp.

Biden excels at his first news conference. The media embarrass themselves.

It's so brilliant the way the WaPo & Jennifer Pro Voting Rubin called out the DC Viper Press today!
