Democrats Plan To Eliminate Filibuster Could Open Door To Radical Legislation

Democrats are planning to eliminate the Senate filibuster if Kamala Harris wins the presidency and Democrats gain control of Congress in the upcoming election. This move would allow them to push through sweeping changes with just 51 votes, bypassing the 60-vote threshold normally required for significant legislation.
Harris’ campaign has made it clear that if elected, they will prioritize enshrining Roe v. Wade into federal law. This comes despite polling that shows many Americans support some restrictions on abortion. Democrats could use this opportunity to push through policies that would not otherwise receive broad support.

Another goal for Democrats is passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Critics argue that this legislation would weaken voter ID requirements and open the door to ballot harvesting, leading to less secure elections. If passed, it could allow for federal control over state-run elections, which would create concerns about election integrity.
In addition to these changes, Democrats may also seek to grant statehood to Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. This would likely give them four more Senate seats, making it easier for them to maintain control of the Senate. Combined with the removal of the filibuster, these changes could effectively diminish the influence of Republicans in the legislative process.
HARRIS ATTACKS: She demands an end to the filibuster and it will end America as we know it if she wins. This is one of the most important podcasts @tedcruz & I have ever done! https://t.co/ySmsC97ExE https://t.co/haYrUI2F9W

Without the filibuster, Democrats would have the power to implement other progressive policies, such as single-payer healthcare and wealth taxes. They may also try to pack the Supreme Court by adding more justices, further tilting the balance of power in their favor.
If the filibuster is eliminated, Democrats could make long-lasting changes that would reshape the country’s political landscape. For conservatives, this election represents a critical moment in determining the future direction of the nation.
Kamala Harris will be this countries demise. She will destroy the constituion, pack the supreme court, do away with the fillibuster and take total contol of your life your freedoms your finances unless your a liberal marxist on her side.
