Couldn’t get all senators to allow a speedy vote. Schumer tells reporters Lindsey Graham is blocking it. “That’s the holdup,” Schumer tells reporters. Graham wants to keep a provision letting him sue to pocket $500,000 over J6 phone records seized.

Once a week there's discourse about the stupid voters who didn't understand in 2024 that democracy was at risk. Well what about members of congress who don't seem to understand that even today? Are they acting like we're in a crisis?
