<p>Democrat President Joe Biden&#8217;s voting agenda failed in the Senate late on Wednesday night after a bipartisan majority opposed Democrats&#8217; extreme push to use the “nuclear option” and gut the filibuster.</p>
<p>&#8220;Manchin, D-W.Va., and Sinema, D-Ariz., joined all Senate Republicans in opposing the attempt to alter the Senate filibuster on party lines, resulting in a 48-52 final tally,&#8221; Fox News <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/schumer-manchin-sinema-biden-senate-filibuster-democrats-voting-rights-elections">reported</a>. &#8220;That vote followed a failed attempt by Democrats to advance the election bills over the Senate&#8217;s 60-vote filibuster threshold. All Republicans opposed it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Biden immediately released a statement afterward, saying, &#8220;I am profoundly disappointed that the United States Senate has failed to stand up for our democracy.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I am disappointed — but I am not deterred,&#8221; he claimed. &#8220;My Administration will never stop fighting to ensure that the heart and soul of our democracy — the right to vote — is protected at all costs.&#8221;</p>
<p>Vice President Kamala Harris issued a scathing statement following the Senate deciding to block Biden&#8217;s agenda, claiming, &#8220;Senators voted to preserve an arcane Senate rule rather than secure that fundamental freedom.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The American people will not forget this moment. Neither will history,&#8221; she claimed. &#8220;Our Administration will continue to fight to pass federal legislation—and to change Senate rules—to secure the right to vote.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The Senate voted tonight to preserve the 60 vote, bipartisan approval for legislation, saving the institution itself,&#8221; Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) said in a statement. &#8220;Senators Manchin and Sinema demonstrated the courage of their convictions. It was a good and historic night.&#8221;</p>

<p>The news comes after Biden had his first press conference in months earlier in the day and was grilled by reporters over numerous issues plaguing the country under his administration.</p>
<p>Biden&#8217;s failure to pass his voting agenda is just the latest in a long line of failures his administration has suffered in recent months as his approval rating in a left-of-center mainstream poll cratered to 33% last week in a new Quinnipiac University poll.</p>
<p>Biden’s approval rating from Democrats sank by double digits from 87% in November to 75% in the poll. The percentage of Democrats who now disapprove of him doubled from 7% to 14%. Only 1 in 4 Independents approved of Biden’s job performance while only 2% (not a typo) of Republicans approved of Biden’s job performance.</p>
<p>Biden <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-biden-approval-rating-crashes-dips-toward-20s-in-mainstream-poll">earned</a> bad scores on major issues, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>the economy: 34 percent approve, while 57 percent disapprove;</li>
<li>foreign policy: 35 percent approve, while 54 percent disapprove;</li>
<li>the response to the coronavirus: 39 percent approve, while 55 percent disapprove.</li>
</ul>
<p>Looking at the poll’s breakdown of racial demographics, the group that least approved of Biden was Hispanics with only 28% approving.</p>
