    WASHINGTON — The Senate voted 46-48 Monday to block a bill pushed by Democrats to codify abortion rights into federal law ahead of an expected Supreme Court decision that could limit access to the procedure.

    The legislation, the Women’s Health Protection Act, failed to garner the needed 60 votes to overcome a filibuster and would have fallen short of the 50 votes needed for passage after Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., joined Republicans in opposition.

    The president doesn’t make or enact the laws. The president is not the big daddy (or mommy) CEO of America. As long as Rekucklicans are willing to get up and do a long talk – spoilers, they always will be – they can essentially force a bill into a 60 vote major to pass instead of a simple 50 (plus the VP) majority to pass.

    Doesn’t help that there’s a senator whose dick is caught in mouse trap baited with a lump of coal.

    Don’t take this the wrong way. Whenever I see this question I assume the asker is ignorant or willfully obscuring the facts with a leading question.

    Is there a name for a rememberrey like this, but it is a very specific meme crossover?

    Like, a t-shirt with the Mario font but the text is bros before hoes, or something mainstream pumpkin spice like that. That’s a normal crossover.

    I only like crossovers when no one else in my life will understand them, whatever you call them.
