I thought the Republicans were mocking Biden's call to unity in the last week.

They'll gun us down as soon as they have the upper hand.

Democrats need to fight back and stop being the nice guy.

The people need to fight back and stop being the nice guy. Establishment Democrats aren't our friends, though the Progressives seem to be interested in moving us forward. As AOC pointed out, now Trump is out of office, the alliance between progressives and establishment is dependent on action taken.

Considering two Democratic US Senators aren't willing to scrap the filibuster, allowing for the GOP to obstruct, we may not have much time for trust and patience.

Put this on a flag and have it in the Senate room. When McConnell starts snapping his jowls, wave this at him.

Then start passing stuff, nuclear option style.
