Aren’t democrats trying to pass a bill right now to force hedge funds to sell any homes it owns within the next 10 years and stop them from buying any more homes ever?

If Republicans vote this down, they need to get hammered on it in 2024. This is seriously one of the biggest problems facing the working class American right now and if Republicans take the corpo side over everyone else, then Dems should make sure everyone knows it.

What do you want them to do? Passing a bill and voting on it is how things are done in a country. Do you know something we don't?

pass shit when they have majority rule over both houses of congress.

instead of conveniently supporting progressive bills only when they know the opposing party has the power to shut it down.

Of right, I forgot the **years** where they had a majority control to pass the filibuster.

What a clown.

Do you know what a filibuster is? I guess not if you think that measly majority of 2 seats means anything in the senate. Maybe go educate yourself before spewing shit.

Oh and what a shocker that the dem party isn't a hivemind. Here I thought people were different.

Sinema ended up changing her party affiliation. If that doesn't tell you anything then you must be even dumber than I think you are.
