Now that Republicans are in the minority, it's not called that anymore. Instead, the stories talk about how the Democrats have failed to get the 60 votes they need to overcome procedural requirements, and bullshit like that. You wouldn't even know that the GOP is on a record pace with the filibusters.
eta: Refreshingly, this lack of reporting means that your indignation over filibusters has survived the shift in control of Congress. I look forward to your continued majoritarian outrage as the Republicans continue to frustrate the will of the people.
