Americans know China and Iran are enemies. They have attacked us, our interests, our allies, and our values. But there’s another enemy most people don’t recognize: the United States Senate.
How? By clinging to archaic, arguably unconstitutional, “Rules of the Senate,” that block the will of the people.
China and Iran: obvious threats
China steals our technology, bullies our allies, and uses economic power to weaken us.
Iran sponsors terrorism, threatens our troops, and works every day against American influence.
They’re both dangerous. They both want us weaker.
The Senate: the enemy inside
Now look at our own Senate.
We vote.
We work tirelessly for years to elect a majority that promises to fix borders, secure elections, cut spending, protect freedoms.
Then those bills go to the Senate and suddenly “need 60 votes” just to get a vote.
That extra 60‑vote requirement is not in the Constitution. Senators invented it. It lets 41 senators block almost anything—even if 51 or more are ready to pass it.
In plain English:
- You win the election.
- Your side has the numbers.
- The Senate rules say, “Sorry, not enough. Try again in a few years.”
That’s not checks and balances. That’s a rigged game.
Elections the don’t Count
Because of these rules:
- Major bills die without a real vote.
- Campaign promises vanish into “procedure.”
- A small group of senators can protect the DC status quo against the rest of the country.
China and Iran attack us from the outside. The Senate attacks our right to govern ourselves from the inside, by building extra walls between the people and the laws they want passed.
Time to Name the Problem
If your vote can’t become law, your “consent” doesn’t mean much. A Senate that constantly blocks majority‑backed reforms isn’t just slow—it’s acting like an enemy of self‑government.
The American people don’t just need to beat China and Iran. We need to take back power from a Senate that has quietly stolen it with rules that were never approved by “We the People.”
