Rand Paul filibusters Patriot Act renewal and yields floor after 10.5 hours - Official thread

[Bastiat's The Law]

Another reference to Massie about another bill he co-sponsored.

He needs more allies up there. Dear god do I wish Greg Brannon had made it!

Yea Brannon losing stings to this day, hope he runs for some office again in the future. Besides that, Rand needs some more support here today just so he can take a break. Can tell he is a bit tired, thankfully Wyden should be back shortly. Hopefully when Wyden comes back he takes up a good portion of time so Rand can recharge a bit.

@RonWyden @SenMikeLee @MartinHeinrich please take the floor again and read #standwithrand tweets to let @RandPaul know we're all behind him

Is he eating candy?

Probably. I guess he isn't drinking because he doesn't want to have to pee, so he is sucking on candies to keep his mouth from drying off.

 

[CPUd]

He is eating Clappers

 

[Sola_Fide]

Have they done this yet?

He's been sipping from that glass of water in front of him every now and then. About half of it in about the 3 hours.

Go Rand!

I'll bet that Ron is really proud of his son right now.

What Rand is doing is so noble. I'm really proud of my candidate too.
