(10,053 posts)1. Does he think they have a filibuster in the house?
He is going on and on and on. Does he think Nancy will shut it down for the night if he goes on all night? Is there no way to shut him the hell up?

the two Party Leaders can speak with no time limits, much like the Senate fillibuster, but they are the only ones who can do it.
As the House Minority Leader, he can talk as long as he wants to.

(10,053 posts)3. I think he doesn't want the dems to speak to all the good things in the bill
while people are still awake, he is trying to push them to speak in the middle of the night.
