Looks like Fitzpatrick was the only republican who voted no on the rules vote. It also looks like they've been at it literally all night. Hakim Jeffries has been going for like 5+ hours.
Could you explain what you mean by "opening up the vote" and how that put pressure on them? Do you mean that he held it open really long and that allowed them to just feel pressure over time to change their vote?
The third party doctrine is bullshit, but it is current law, so it's not at all surprising that this would be the outcome here.
Normally I use the recent posts, however there are a few territories that I like to read everything (and ensure I catch everything), such as ~Politics_And_Law, and I use the drop down to drill down to those.
In case anyone is interested, here are links to the cases:
Malikie v. Core Scientific
Malikie v. MARA
There is no such thing as intrinsic value, except in the limited case of a sapient being. In order for value to be intrinsic, the thing must value itself, which is only possible for a sapient being.
There are intrinsic properties, but value is always and everywhere extrinsic.
