first of all, i brought up that it would be good to know who put up what motions because you'd get a better idea of how many party motions were filibustered by the other party-right? for instance, if there were 100 motions, with 30 filibusters, but 50 of the motions were by the other party, than they filibustered 50 motions, not 100.
The fillibusters are by the minority party. There is no need for the majority party to fillibuster itself, or fillibuster a minority proposal (they just vote it down).

"Who put up the motions" are on .gov, in the congressional and senate records.

Again, it clearly shows that the GOP is the party of "NO" this session, with historic interference, never worse, in allowing things to not come to a vote.
