Cornyn’s main concern? A $1.8 billion settlement fund for victims of political prosecutions — which the Justice Department says won’t happen, but Blanche confirmed could still be enforced.

With Cruz focused elsewhere and Democrats likely to vote no, Cornyn’s single Republican vote could be the deciding factor — and his lingering doubts may be the final roadblock.
