I think it’s a minimum of 30 hours from the cloture filing. But I admit I could be wrong

Hannity claims FBI report has nothing new.

If true RINO jellyfish have cover for vote to proceed McConnell files cloture to end debate on nomination.

I assume that means he has the votes locked up.

Not necessarily., But there is a timeline even Mitch must follow. And without this move tonight, there can't be a vote this week. NOW I hope he whips out the checkbook and buys off Murcow and Collins. Flake doesn't matter. If those two are sold, Manchine and Heitkamp will follow, making it. 52 (51 needed for cloture)

Either he has the votes locked up, or if he gets voted down Trump re-nominates him, ensuring EVERY Red State Dem Senator up for election LOSES.

What if Flake and his twin sistas won’t support cloture?

Either way I believe the end is finally in sight. Prayers for the Kavanaugh family.

It’s CLOTURE...there’s NOTHING that the stinking COMMIES can do now, except vote yay or nay on Kavanaugh!

Sure there is. They can exhume every freak, pervert and liar in their stable (and they have a VERY large stable, as you can imagine) and throw them on TV to try and make sure ANY Senator voting for Kavanaugh is made to seem like they’re voting for the Devil himself to be on the Supreme Court.

I don’t really understand their motivation, unless they’re just completely deranged. By pulling this crap, they’ve hurt their own candidates in the mid-terms, clearly, and if it fails ... what are they doing to do the NEXT time? It’s almost like beating Trump has become their reason for living and they’re literally willing to do ANYTHING to beat him at ANYTHING.

Hopefully, their attempt to destroy Kavanaugh will be another in their long list of failures.

Donald J. Trump has made conservatives out of the Republican party!

That IS what Sean said and everyone on the panel agreed.

And yes, Cloture gave the spinelss the will to timidly vote YES!

Will you please explain what this means exactly? Is this the beginning of the period to say your peace before the vote? I know there are ritual steps but not sure I understand. Thanks ;)

The White House received an advance copy of the FBI report earlier tonight. It must be favorable for Kavanaugh as this was the signal Mitch must have been waiting for.
