Yet another Gang of 20ish Republican comes out against bipartisan infrastructure bill. Rounds: "I could not in good conscience support this legislation in its final form.” Thune, the GOP whip, has voted against it and is up for reelection in SD next year — PolitiTweet.org

@sarahnferris @heatherscope "What’s ironic is, a lot of the debt we’re being asked to account for was accumulated on Donald Trump’s watch,” said Rep. Gerry Connolly Cornyn retorts: "They want to spend $3.5 trillion more; I don’t think it’s unreasonable to say they have to raise the debt ceiling themselves" — PolitiTweet.org

@sarahnferris @heatherscope Dems planning to tie stopgap spending bill to raising debt ceiling “I am predicting, with absolute certainty, it will resolve itself uneventfully," said Sen. Schatz Sen. Murray on McConnell's seemingly intractable position: So my guess is in the fall, he won’t be saying that.” — PolitiTweet.org

@sarahnferris @heatherscope Schumer “doesn’t need a single Republican vote, and I think he should move forward with that information,” said Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.). "If he fails, I do think he’ll own it. Hopefully they’ll understand.” But Democrats say it's August, and McConnell will change his tune — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell is extremely dug in on the debt limit, per advisers. He says he's not going to budge + won't change his mind. What's notable is that even Collins says she has "grave reservations" about raising debt ceiling at moment https://t.co/A8RT4vfSx4 @sarahnferris @heatherscope — PolitiTweet.org

Cruz comes back, tries to pass another crypto amendment. Shelby comes back with his $50 billion defense infrastructure amendment. Cruz: "I have the deepest respect for the senator from Alabama" But Cruz says he will not agree to Shelby's amendment, so Shelby objects — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

Carper then comes back to ask for the crypto compromise to be approved. Shelby says, basically, only if you take my amendment. Carper refuses, and that means this crypto language is not changing — PolitiTweet.org

Toomey asks for cryptocurrency compromise amendment to be added to infra bill, but Shelby asks for $50b defense funding amendment to also be added. Toomey agrees, but Bernie objects. back at square one — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

I would be surprised if this crypto compromise passes by UC -- Cruz says he expects someone will object, and says if the bill doesn't change it will have "devastating effects" on crypto industry — PolitiTweet.org

Toomey sounds like he's going to try and get the cryptocurrency compromise into the bipartisan infrastructure bill ... any one senator can object — PolitiTweet.org
