What is unanimous consent and what does withholding it do? I'm a bit confused about how this works. I love that the Dems are holding the floor hostage, but when I researched the filibuster it said they got rid of it for cabinet appointments 2013 to advance Obama's nominees. So how does this work?

Laura Quilter advocates for Kilmar Garcia Abrego's due process. @lquilter.bsky.social

unanimous consent is a procedure whereby business can be taken up without some of the other formalities, because nobody objects. A lot of nominees move forward under unanimous consent -- nobody objecting -- and the idea is no, make them walk through the actual processes to get these nominees thru.

Filibuster is a different tactic of delay. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filibus...) Filibustering is taking up time by speechifying (classically) during open debate time.

Danny @drfsuper.center

Yes, I know what a filibuster is. The reason it works for legislation is that you need 60 votes for cloture, so if the minority party is filibustering then they can never call a vote and it effectively dies. IIRC this used to be the case for confirmations too, but the rules were changed.
