Biden said that we are at an inflection point in history and I agree. Our politics are not normal and they aren't getting any better. If anyone thought that Trump leaving office would "break the fever" they need a new thermometer. The question now is what is he --- and what are we --- going to do about it?

Biden is headed to Georgia next week to talk about voting right legislation and the desperate need to shore up our electoral system. Will he be able to rally the two Senate Divas, Kyrsten Sinema, D-Az., and Joe Manchin, D-WV., to the cause and persuade them to allow an exception to the filibuster to save our democracy? At this point that really is the only question, isn't it?
