Makes sense, though cloture is the hurdle. He can refuse UC & burn 30 hours for amendments too. @emptywheel @JakeLaperruque @NathanielDWhite
@NathanielDWhite Think it still likely Mitch will use Paul threat to do amendments to add data retention @JakeLaperruque @HarleyGeiger

@emptywheel@JakeLaperruque@HarleyGeiger they don't get it, or not before sunset, and move forward. Amendments too risky. -
@NathanielDWhite Agree. But Mitch has been playing chicken thus far and now he has Paul to take the blame.@JakeLaperruque@HarleyGeiger -
@emptywheel@JakeLaperruque@HarleyGeiger but amendments require further House action. If dies there all blame on McConnell. Doable, risky. -
@NathanielDWhite@emptywheel@HarleyGeiger Yup. McConnell blocked action, dragged this out for months, never offered options - he gets blame
