@VolbeckWasRight I think you’re conflating the previous question rule change (which enabled the blockades) with cloture (much later, designed to limit that power). I’m referring to the former. The link I posted explains it well imho — PolitiTweet.org

Regardless, it’s politically revealing that Manchin is making such a claim. His Democratic colleagues have spent months trying to sway him on a rules change based on the history of the Senate; it doesn’t look like they’ve made much of an impression. — PolitiTweet.org

@billscher “dilatory debate” occurs in the House too! (see: Kevin McCarthy.) and other bodies. when we talk Senate filibuster we generally mean opportunity for single senators to object and cloture rule, the stuff that’s unique to senate — PolitiTweet.org
