Rothmus 🏴(@Rothmus):James Talarico wants to kill the filibuster so Democrats can pack the Supreme Court and make DC a state. When Manchin and Sinema saved the 60 vote rule in 2022, they blocked DC statehood, a bigger Court, and mass legalization. He is running as the vote that ends it. He even told Semafor the rule stops voters from judging the next election. He is open to expanding the number of justices, backs citizenship for long term illegal immigrants, and called ICE a secret police force terrorizing communities. Btw, Abdul El Sayed and Peggy Flanagan support packing the Court too. Texas votes Tuesday.
