Spooked McConnell Threatens ‘Scorched Earth’ To Protect Filibuster As momentum grows to eliminate a tool Republicans have used over the years to kill overwhelmingly popular legislation, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Tuesday threatened to make the Senate into an unbearably slow and hostile work environment as retribution. Nobody serving in this chamber can even begin, can even begin to imagine what a completely scorched-earth Senate would look like, the Kentucky senator declared in a speech on the Senate floor, referring to what he d do if Democrats repealed the filibuster, the extended debating tactic that makes it possible for the chamber s minority to block legislation. Invocation of cloture, a move to limit the debate, requires a total of 60 votes to be adopted.
