Because the committee vote was tied, the Rs can stop the nomination by means of a Filibuster. There won’t be 60 votes to override the Filibuster.

No, they can get a tie in committee to the floor and there aren’t filibusters on SCOTUS nominees any more.

It’s done.

These 4 squishy R-senators were “let out of the vote” because of the filibuster. Their intention to confirm is just words. The Dems don’t have 60 votes.
