A record number of filibusters. Next session the Senate should require an actual filibuster.

1. Republicans made it a do-nothing congress?
Please. Democrats had their hands in it, too. Refusing to take up legislation. Refusing to do more than write nasty letters in their investigations. House Speaker Pelosi saying that impeachment is off the table.

Right. Democrats were so innocent in all this. They sat back and let the GOP trample them and our rights.
