Republicans need 8 Dems, or 7 plus Rand Paul. Would need more than that to provide cover such that each individual vote is not the difference-maker.

These are the 10 who voted for cloture in March:
Schumer (Leader)
Durbin (Whip)
Gillibrand
Cortez Masto*
Schatz
Shaheen
Peters
Hassan
Fetterman*
King*

He's doing good work digging into the Epstein story but what did he say about using his power as a US senator to oppose Israel's genocide of the Palestinians?

Somebody tell Wyden.

Anybody surprised that senate Democrats appear poised to elevate this bootlicker to a leadership position? Shameful.

Shaheen (NH) and Peters (MI) are retiring. King (ME) will be 80 and will also probably retire.

Schumer - will either retire or get challenged by AOC in '28

These are the others...
Fetterman
CCM
Durbin
Schatz

Hassan
