3. CNN reporting that the White House is "stunned" by the vote.
Rethugs are pissed because they think it's a filibuster.

Biden continues to insist that the State Dept. turn over classified info.

6. I don't think we know about that yet...
We won't know till the actual vote on the nomination comes down. You often can't predict an actual vote based on a cloture vote - sometimes you can but not always. It's not unusual for a senator to vote "yes" on a cloture vote so that they can vote "no" on the actual vote.
