Biden will set the agenda. Schumer isn't doing it without his approval.
People in here concerned about enthusiasm.
that 6-3 is so tempting, i hope the repubs don't realize this will be like Icarus flying too close to the sun. one min it's 6-3 and the next it's 7-6.
Biden has said previously he would be open to ending the filibuster if Republicans are "obstreperous" (aka being obstructionists).

lol imagine if a dem senate candidate had said something like this about scalia in 2016
There's no guarantee they would've voted for HRC they could've voted for Trump.Don't forget Jill Stein voters. They were more harmful to Hillary

Why did the Republicans shut it down in 2013? Was there like a dispute over a particular issue that needed to be resolved first?
Obama/Senate couldn't do the same thing in 2016 over filling the SC seat? Or was the court not serious enough or something?
Not true. Jill Stein voters in 2016 were largely Bernie or Busters and liberals/Democrats that hated Hillary.
