U.S. Senate
www.c-span.org
The Senate will vote to advance President Trump's nomination of Matthew Whitaker to be the U.S. Ambassador to NATO. He previously served as Acting Attorney General during the first Trump Administration.

It’s nice to see the senate opposition functioning.

Edit: 18 hours of holding the senate floor, giving voice to the american people. Lots of tears as american suffering is read out loud for the congressional record. Testiment from Americans across the country. This is the voice of the people. Please click the link, share and watch. The media needs to know we care about the opposition more than we care about trump rambling on a plane about fort knox.

    No one should know any peace until first past the post voting is replaced and 3rd parties are free to participate in elections with no spoiler effect.

    No more holding noses.

    No more hostage situation.

    Democracy. Sure republicans dont want it. How about the democratic party? Is this a purity test that the democrats can pass? They say they support democracy, time to prove it. Shouldn’t be hard to convince them.

      I don’t think your post directly addresses my point but your point is extremely important. One of the reasons we’re so fractured is the lack of proportion representation of people in government and that is because of the broken FPTP system that’s so prevalent.
