Team Blue had the complete authority to render the filibuster moot. We the people granted them more than enough power to do what we want done.
Fact is they hid behind the parliamentarian, insisted on bipartisan legislation as a priority and then proceeded to cede the power granted to make that excuse a reality today.
Personally, I reject it all and know damn well this could all play out differently and it doesn't because ordinary people are just not a priority.
