Lindsey Graham claims “Republicans are folding” on the debt limit to protect Manchin and Sinema’s support for the filibuster. “The argument made yesterday was that this may be more pressure than two Democrat senators can stand regarding changing the filibuster rules,” he says. — PolitiTweet.org

The debt limit deal has a majority to pass (the 50 Democrats) but some Republicans are objecting to a straight up-or-down vote. Any one can force a 60-vote hurdle, and some are insisting on it. Which puts the party in the position of having to supply 10 votes to advance it. — PolitiTweet.org

Thune says Rs do not have 10 votes to break their party’s filibuster. He said they’ll get there but it will be a “painful birthing process”
