Senate Republicans have long resisted the temptation of going nuclear on the filibuster, a move more often made by Senate Democrats when they controlled the upper chamber.
"It is now time for the Republicans to play their ‘TRUMP CARD,’ and go for what is called the Nuclear Option—Get rid of the Filibuster, and get rid of it, NOW," Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social on Thursday.
The Senate on Thursday passed a resolution aimed at ending President Donald Trump’s global tariffs introduced last spring, with four Senate Republicans joining Democrats to object to the president’s trade policy.
House Republican leadership spends $13 million opposing Gov. Gavin Newsom's California redistricting measure Proposition 50 ahead of Nov. 4 vote.
The filibuster—a procedural move allowing senators to extend debates on bills indefinitely without a 60-vote majority—has long been viewed as a move to encourage bipartisanship in Congress and as a bulwark against political dominance by slim majorities in the upper chamber.
The map was a rare bipartisan compromise because Republicans, who control the state legislature, did not want to risk a referendum challenge from Democrats.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene appeared on Friday night’s episode of Real Time with Bill Maher and made sure to pledge her allegiance to President Donald Trump several times, lest he get the wrong idea after her recent clashes with her fellow Republicans.
