The last question I ask my friend is this: Doesn't it seem we should be spending time on the tens of thousands of people in Minnesota who are out of work, or are no longer looking for work, or those people who are underemployed? Wouldn't it be better if we were spending some time dealing with them rather than something that is going to happen 10 years from now for the wealthiest people in America?

Get rid of the filibuster. It’s nothing. As Barack Obama said at John Lewis’ funeral, it’s part of the leftovers from the days of slave owners. You have got to get rid of it. It’s very bad.
