President Donald Trump is urging Republicans in the U.S. Senate to blow up the filibuster and swiftly advance a conservative agenda before Democrats seize the opportunity to do the same for their own priorities.
According to WND, President Trump issued a forceful social media statement warning that if Republicans fail to act, Democrats will abolish the filibuster on the first hour of their first day in power and ram through a hard-left agenda. His message reflects a growing frustration among conservatives who see Senate rules being used to stall border security, election integrity, and other core priorities while Democrats openly signal they will not hesitate to change those rules when it benefits them.
How much abuse can the Republican Senate take from the Radical Left Lunatics in the form of Democrat Senators, before they BLOW UP (TERMINATE!) THE FILIBUSTER, and approve things at a record clip, including The Save America Act, that would be unthinkable without the Filibuster Termination??? The Dems will do it on the first hour of their first day. DO NOT BE STUPID!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP, the president wrote. Trump has repeatedly pressed GOP senators to reform or abolish the 60-vote threshold that effectively hands the Democrat minority a veto over most legislation.
That procedural hurdle allows Democrats to block measures such as funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and a common-sense election integrity plan, along with other conservative initiatives. For many on the right, the filibuster has shifted from a tool of deliberation to a weapon of obstruction wielded by a party that has shown little interest in compromise.
Even, Senate Majority Leader John Thune has balked at the idea, even as members of his own conference increasingly suggest such a move to pass marquis legislation, the report said. The divide inside the Republican conference pits institutionalists wary of changing Senate norms against conservatives who argue that unilateral disarmament in the face of an aggressive left is political suicide.
It was Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, a Democrat, who issued the warning about everything being on the table for Democrats if and when they would be in the majority. His everything suggests drastic action on the filibuster, and his comments were seen by observers as a threat.
For conservatives, the question is whether Republicans will continue to protect a rule Democrats openly plan to discard, or whether they will act now to secure border enforcement, election safeguards, and broader elements of a Save America agenda while they still hold the majority. As President Trumps warning underscores, the stakes are not merely procedural but existential for those who believe limited government, national sovereignty, and the rule of law are on the line.
