The Most Fascist Senate Dems of 2025

Happy End of This Hellfire of a Year. As I said previously, Internet Law demands that I create a list of the most fascist Dems of the past year and it is now the Senate’s turn.

The Senate, compared to the House, is utterly weird. Thanks to the filibuster requiring 60 votes for anything to pass, the process of pushing bills is like a factory of procedural boredom. Every law and nomination has to first pass cloture, which closes the debate phase. For the majority of bills, that requires 60 yea votes. For nominees, you only need 51 (or 50 + the Vice President), which makes the cloture vote for nominees extra pointless. But sometimes you have motions to proceed followed by a vote to proceed, which can follow a failed cloture vote and sometime doesn’t and I really hate it. There are people who are true experts on how this works, but the steepest learning curve I’ve had is understanding Senate procedure.

All that to say, the way I count fascist votes in the Senate is very different in one way: I only count the final cloture, motion, proceed, amendment, and/or passing votes. So, for example, when the government was closed, HR 5371 8 cloture votes. Instead of counting all of those votes I only counted the last vote the bill received.

When I did the previous Senate rundown in August, I counted 16 votes and 134 nominations. We are now up to 32 votes and 163 nominees. I won’t be listing the nominees due to their being far too many. If you want to see the bills that were voted on prior to August 1st, hop on over to the previous entry linked in the first sentence.

As for the newer bills and the votes they received, these are it:

Quick note, the Senate Resolutions listed above were en bloc nominations, so they only needed 50+VP to pass. As such, I treated them like nominations and only counted the passing vote, since vote changes between cloture and confirmation are extremely rare.

Also, some final notes. I list the primary and general election challengers for each of these members of Congress. This is not an endorsement of any candidate. Also, if you choose to run for office, be sure to check the most up to date qualifications with your state. Finally, be sure to research every candidate on the ballot. Try and have more than one favorite, just in case they drop out or do something morally disqualifying. Treat every electoral race as if it’s ranked choice.

So, without any further ado, here are the top 10 most fascist Democratic Senators.
