| John, Our worst fears may be one step closer to becoming a Reality. The “Centrist” Democrat from West Virginia, Joe Manchin, flubbed up on a call with billionaire donors and let it be known that he is in favor of reforming the Senate filibuster. You might be asking yourself, “Didn’t he go on Fox news and commit to the American people that for the next two years he was a firm NO on filibuster reform?” Yep – he sure did. Here is the clip: 
First, Manchin was a hard “no” on filibuster reform Now, he’s opened the door to reducing the 60-vote threshold to 55 votes! Before too long, he might concede to Chuck Schumer and agree to nuke the filibuster altogether. John, we need to mobilize quickly. We’re setting up a fund to run ads against Senate Democrats and save the filibuster. The ads we run against Senate Democrats are going to cost, at minimum, $100,000. Can we count on you to make an emergency donation of $5, $50 or even $500 today to fund this project?  DC statehood, no IDs to vote, federalization of elections, the Green New Deal, American bankruptcy. Without the filibuster, we’re toast. We’re pleading with you to help us fund this campaign, but time is of the essence. We MUST start airing our ads ASAP. Please be generous with your gifts. Senate Republicans
