The level of political absolutism in today’s younger generations that have had little to no civics education is shocking.

Protesters began a second hunger strike Thursday to demand Congress pass voting rights legislation, even though any chance of an overhaul appears dead."I'm sure everyone here shares this sentiment that this hunger strike is easier to endure than the consequences of not passing this bill," Arizona State University student Brandon Ortega told Fox News Digital. "This is our lives that are hanging in the balance."

Kyrsten Sinema reaffirmed (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/sinema-senate-filibuster-schumer-democrats-elections-bills-voting-rights) that she would not vote to remove the filibuster, which would have meant the upper chamber only needed a simply majority to pass the voting rights bills, the legislation appears to have no immediate path forward.
