Lawrence O'Donnell just reported on MSNBC that Schumer is set to nuke voting filibuster next week!

15. No. He didn't

I just watched it again. Here's my transcription:

"So it sounds like Senator Schumer is going to bring this to a vote - watch it get blocked on the 60-vote threshold by Republicans - and then presumably ask for a vote to overrule the chair on that ruling on the 60-vote threshold."

He wasn't "reporting" that it was going to happen. He was speculating in exactly the same way that some have for several months now. There was no indication that either Manchin or Sinema had changed their mind... there was just the argument (which is exactly what Schumer intended by putting the bill forward) that surely this would be enough to convince Manchin that Republicans aren't going to compromise on voting rights... and thus he would have to nix the filibuster (or at least create a carve-out) if he want's it to get passed.

That's really the exact same speculation that Manchin has shot down for months. Perhaps it will work this time, but O'Donnell was not "reporting" on a known shift in the landscape.
