04:56:54 Retweeted @EFF 04:42:59 BREAKING: USA Freedom fails to advance in the Senate by a vote of 57 to 42.
04:58:19 Retweeted @gerrycanavan 04:46:20 Stuff like the Rand Paul filibusters scrambles the usual moralism of Republicans vs Democrats so deliciously. I wish it happened every day.
04:58:23 Retweeted @byersalex 04:45:34 Amash says he would block House Unanimous Consent for short-term extension of any length
05:00:27 Retweeted @jbview 04:55:07 So USA Freedom Act gets 57 and fails to beat filibuster, and now 2 month extension won't even get a majority for cloture. Now what?
05:01:15 Retweeted @EFF 04:56:49 BREAKING: After blocking USA Freedom, the Senate has blocked McConnell's two-month reauthorization too.
05:12:38 Retweeted @DSenFloor 05:06:53 Sen. McConnell asked consent to pass a bill to extend expiring provisions of the Patriot Act through June 8. Sen. Paul objects.
05:12:53 Retweeted @DSenFloor 05:07:22 Sen. McConnell asked consent to pass a bill to extend expiring provisions of the Patriot Act through June 5. A Senator objected.

05:13:20 Retweeted @RandPaul 05:09:33 Patriot Act filibuster successful and ongoing. Bulk phone record collection set to expire.
05:13:27 Retweeted @jbview 05:09:49 And…a quorum call, while McConnell figures out what to try next.
05:13:36 Retweeted @EFF 05:08:44 BREAKING: Senator Rand Paul objecting to even one more day of extending Section 215.
05:13:45 Retweeted @RandPaul 05:10:15 I am now once again trying to get Senate to allow my amendments to root out the worst parts of Patriot Act.
05:13:50 Retweeted @declanm 05:10:17 It's remarkable how hard McConnell is working to renew general warrants for domestic surveillance that were already ruled unconstitutional.
05:13:59 Retweeted @RandPaul 05:10:46 If the Senate won't allow my amendments, I'm prepared to keep the Senate in session as long as necessary.
05:15:30 Retweeted @ananavarro 05:15:20 Understanding what's happening in the US Senate tonight, requires being under the influence of some kind of substance. Any substance.
05:15:59 Watching the Senate via Twitter right now is fun.

05:22:19 Retweeted @kerpen 05:20:47 Confirmed. Senate coming back Sunday May 31 on eve of expiration. That will be high drama.
05:26:38 There are a lot of areas where I think Paul is nuts, but on this stuff I can #StandWithRand. And Wyden. Can Wyden run for President too? :-)
05:27:16 Retweeted @KateNocera 05:24:58 The likelihood of Patriot Act provisions expiring just went way way up.
05:36:37 Retweeted @AriMelber 05:31:48 Credit to Rand Paul for pushing this issue, bucking his party and changing the Senate's plan. Unusual on the Hill.
05:37:02 Retweeted @joshgerstein 05:13:56 Just amazing to see two senators of same party representing the same state face off like this
05:44:17 Retweeted @conncarroll 05:24:03 So Mitch McConnell has essentially placed the future of the Patriot Act in @RandPaul's hands. Wonder how that will turn out.
05:47:23 Retweeted @RandPaul 05:45:57 The Senate has refused to reauthorize bulk data collection. I am proud to have stood up for the Bill of Rights. But our fight is not over
05:47:54 Retweeted @kurtopsahl 05:32:25 Wow, Sen. Mikulski going off on the Senate floor. From Maryland where NSA is.
