No, you can’t. Debate time is limited in the senate for a rescission package. There is no filibuster, neither a traditional talking one nor one where they just say they’re filibustering to prevent a vote.
I suppose someone could just talk and refuse to stop. They would be ruled out of order, and if they didn’t stop the Senate Sergeant at Arms would have them removed. If every democrat did that I guess that would hold things up a bit, but it’s not a filibuster and eventually the vote would proceed.

Better to be dragged out for standing up for what is right than to roll over and show your belly to the butcher.
Given who we’re taking about, I won’t hold my breath for it.
