Watching Biden illegally try to push through spending packages around Congress who has the authority, or illegally try to extend eviction moratoriums or forgive student loans, etc. Just remember you all are setting precedence for these illegal actions, so when the GOP does it, don’t fly off the handle
Remember y’all set these norms. I don’t want to hear about any complaining when the GOP follows the Democrats lead.

1. McConnell had just killed the filibuster for SC nominees
2. McConnell's biggest goal was passing tax cuts for the rich .. which they were able to do though budget reconciliation, so they were able to avoid the 60 vote requirement
3. Dont worry .. Im not worried about republicans passing bills/policy to help struggling people out
4. You know in your heart that republicans will be the ones to do away w the legislative filibuster (but that hypothetical guessing)
