that the bullshit McConnell pulled with the Supreme Court is a big part of why we voted for them and allowed them to control both houses in Congress. The fact they have not fixed this yet is shameful, even if the blame can only be placed on a few of them. They know who they are. If we lose one or both houses, it will be part of the reason why. We elected you to do something. Do it.
If you don't, and we lose Congress, this country is over.
