Every farmer I've talked to this year, whether they're with the Farm Bureau, which is a conservative group or the Farmers Union liberal group, they've all had the worst year ever. And it's because of the trade war.
I think that we`re heading in that direction. Joe was very, very frustrated with the vote on the January 6 commission.
This immediately brings to question the filibuster and I was encouraged that Joe Manchin in this audio that was released the other day by the intercept, has said that he is open to a modification of the filibuster.
I mean, at one point in the speech, he said that, well, you know, incitement is a legal term but there’s no doubt that he provoked this.
