The one real lever the Democrats have fed really is the filibuster in the Senate, and they damn well better learn to use it with the ease the Republicans have over the past couple decades.

The AGs can make a show at the state levels, but with the SCOTUS stacked as it is trying to sue for anything is theatrical at best.

The republicans will immediately get rid of the filibuster. How do people not understand this?
