Agreed. Maybe I'm overly paranoid, but I feel like the filibuster is the only thing that's keeping us from going down the path of Venezuela. We're already on that path in many ways, but at the current rate it's at least feasible to turn things around. If they do away with the filibuster the brakes are off and there's no turning around.
I'd feel differently if I knew we had fair elections. But I'm legit terrified about of waking up one day soon and seeing that the two Dem holdouts caved and the filibuster is gone.
