Summary:The post, featuring a quote from Senator Mike Lee, advocates for ending the chronic abuse of the Senate's 60-vote cloture standard by requiring senators to debate legislation and then passing it with a simple majority vote, portraying this as the "only way out" of a "Senate-imposed zombie apocalypse."
Sentiment:Critical and Urgent
Key Claims:

- The current filibuster is characterized as a "zombie filibuster from hell" and the overall situation as a "Senate-imposed zombie apocalypse."
- Ending the filibuster by changing the cloture rule is presented as "the only way out" of this crisis.
- Andrew Kolvet asserts that ending the filibuster might not be effective due to "Democrat lite politicians" who support "open borders, mass amnesty, and massive deficits."
