Statists Really Do Believe That They Are the Golden Ones From Whom All Blessings Flow
Statists really do believe that they are the Golden Ones from whom all blessings flow (wonder how many will get THAT reference!). Bernie, AOC, and the other Democrat Socialists who believe that Govt does have such powers just can’t conceive of the terror that Reagan brought up with those words.

The Senate filibuster SHOULD be changed
Senator Joe Manchin (D-West Virginia) has been arguing of late that the rules governing the Senate filibuster should be changed, even though he graciously agrees that the Senate should continue to be required to take into consideration the views of the minority.
