House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has been holding the floor of the House of Representatives for more than six hours and counting Wednesday, in a marathon speech protesting a budget deal reached by Senate leaders.
In her remarks, Pelosi announced that she and many fellow House Democrats would oppose the package unless House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., promised to allow a vote on a plan to shield from deportation hundreds of thousands of immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally.
"Let Congress work its will," said Pelosi, who noted that Senate Republicans have slated a debate on the politically freighted subject starting next week. "What are you afraid of?"

Nonsense like this makes me detest politicians——they see it all as a game.

Just walk in, kick a brass spittoon against the wall, and before the chair can rule “out of order” yell “motion for cloture”.

Skanky Nancy is reading letters from illegals really really fast. She definitely took some meth or snorted cocaine. She’s very manic, Babbling babbling babbling.
She’s sniffing very frequently also. Must be the cocaine.

TV news just said she has set a record for filibustering. I doubt it, but at least she will be remembered for something.TV #FakeNews.
The 5 Longest Filibusters in US History The record for the longest filibuster goes to U.S. Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, who spoke for 24 hours and 18 minutes against the Civil Rights Act of 1957, according to U.S. Senate records.
It took me all of 10 seconds to find that. Do they not have internet connections at MSM outlets?

Think you are confusing Senate with the House - House does not have the filibuster/cloture rule.
