20250206 Thursdays with Howie Klein & a Filibuster Too-Nicole Sandler Show

Well, now the senate Democrats are getting the hang of it. Instead of just granting unanimous consent to end debate, allowing the Republicans to to ram through D’ump’s horrendous cabinet nominees, it seems that they’re finally getting in the fight. The debate began yesterday morning at 10:30am ET. They went all night long and are…
