Harris calls for end to Senate filibuster to restore US abortion rights.

When the wrecker was president, Republicans abolished the filibusterrule for appointing judges.

That enabled them to pack the courts withright-wing extremists, including the extreme court

If the Democrats control Congress next year, any measure to fix theSupreme Court or undo damage they have done will surely be blocked bya Republican filibuster unless Democrats abolish it.
