What Rand Paul Could Do Later Today and What It Would Mean

The Hill has a very good backgrounder on the many moving parts and what could happen during today's  Senate Sunday session that Mitch McConnell has called  for an evening vote on three  Patriot Act provisions

“[Rand’s] got a lot of ideological reason to do [block the vote], he’s got the support to do it, I don’t think it’s the reason he’s doing it but there’s a campaign financial interest on it. He really could gum this up," says Nathan White, the senior legislative manager at Access, an advocacy group that supports reforming the law.

Let's see what goes down. Delaying spy power for 5 days will not be that impressive. It has to be more.
