Yuuup. Couple of them were retiring, a few of them aren’t up until '28, a couple of them aren’t up until 20-fucking-30! But yeah, the more I think about it the more the only thing that make sense is that Schumer was getting worried that Thune was close to caving on the filibuster.

I think that limp dick offer Schumer made the other day was probably lobbyist money stuff. But I think that the full on caving was about protecting the filibuster.

Yeah, much harder to do their little “Revolving Door Villain” Strategy when all it takes is a simple majority to do anything. Not impossible mind you, but definitely much harder.

I can almost guarantee you at this point that it was either the air travel lobby, or dems being worried that Trump might actually be able to whip the votes to nuke the filibuster. Leaning more towards the filibuster at this moment.
