WOW WOW WOW. Leaked recording from 2 days after the Jan 6th Capitol mob. Koch-funded operation & McConnell's staff worry about how popular HR 1 is. So popular - even among conservatives! - that they advise simply killing it with the filibuster instead of debating it publicly.

This is also 3 days after Dems won the Georgia senate seats, giving them the trifecta that could allow the to pass the For the People Act.
At the same time at the state level, Georgia GOP started scheming to introduce the major voter suppression bill just enacted last week.

Pulling it all together:
1. Dems win Georgia + senate control
2. Driven by the Big Lie, a mob storms the Capitol
3. Georgia GOP accelerates voter suppression in support of the Big Lie
4. Dems prioritize democracy reform
5) McConnell plans to filibuster in support of the Big Lie
