I’d love to keep the filibuster and make filibustering senators speak That’s how the filibuster is supposed to work—protecting robust debate in the Senate It no longer does that; it now forestalls debate Enforce the filibuster Or nuke it The status quo empowers Democrats

“It takes 60 votes to pass a bill in the Senate, right?” No; it takes 60 votes to achieve cloture—a mechanism to bring debate to a close Passing a bill takes a simple majority It’s possible to pass legislation without cloture when no one’s speaking End the zombie filibuster

Remember: government spending is a tax on every American “Keep your eye on one thing and one thing only: how much government is spending, because that’s the true tax.... If you’re not paying for it in the form of explicit taxes, you’re paying for it indirectly in the form of inflation or in the form of borrowing.” - Milton Friedman

What are the odds that the unnamed senator who called the effort to pass the SAVE America Act a “charade” professes unqualified support for the bill when talking to constituents and donors? Statistically, the odds are high. Very high. What’s the bigger charade: fighting to ensure only citizens vote in our elections, or a cosponsor secretly working to tank it? Welcome to the Swamp.
