    I expect they’ll pull from Mitch’s playbook at the minimum, so shutting down the filibuster option has to be one of the first focus points. Once the Senate rules are in place we can’t retroactively get rid of the filibuster, and they stay in place for two years.

    At this point, surely many of them must have something on each other. I think you’re onto something with many congresspeople being implicated to some degree or another.
