#filibuster — Public Fediverse posts

#Trump has been pushing the #Senate to remove the #filibuster in order to pass the “SAVE America Act” because he doesn’t even have enough Republican votes for it to pass. It would introduce new voter #identification requirements.

The measure as written constitutes #VoterSuppression.

Every time Stephen Miller calls someone ELSE "weird, strange, bizarre and unelectable," a rat-like demon gets its puny, flaccid wings.

The #law is unlikely to pass there, given deeply felt opposition from #Democrats who can block it with a filibuster. #Republicans lack the 60 votes they need to overcome one.

#Trump insists they pass the law anyway, even if they have to kill the #filibuster to do so. Trump has vowed that he would refuse to sign any other legislation until the bill was sent to his desk. He has called the measure his “No. 1 priority,” saying it would “guarantee the midterms” for his party.

Voter fraud almost never happens in the #US. Still, in order to “prevent” it, #Trump is pushing #Republicans to pass the SAVE America Act, an #ElectionLaw that would, among many provisions, require people to show photo identification to #vote [proof of citizenship].

It’s a solution in search of a problem — a solution that narrowly passed in the #House last week & is now under debate in the #Senate.

In the Senate, Democrats are in the minority but can stand in the way of the SAVE America Act. Republicans, despite pressure from President Donald Trump to pass the bill, don't appear likely to take advantage of the talking filibuster – even though some in their party are pushing to do so. #filibuster #saveamerica #republican #democrat

Although I think the filibuster is terrible and would be happy to see it go, I also find the spectacle of Cornyn backpedaling on this nauseating.

Dec 27, 2025: He doesn't want compromise. He wants control. #Trump #Control #Politics #Filibuster https://youtube.com/shorts/5HbdmtEA35w?si=7V-BJ5cUzVtsAG0M

Trump urged Republicans in the Senate to scrap the #filibuster,
saying it had become an obstacle to "effective governing" and removing it would prevent another government shutdown
and pave the way for his party to push through its legislative priorities.

“The filibuster is hurting the Republican Party,” Trump told Politico.
He called on Republican lawmakers to eliminate it “without question”.

“If you get rid of the filibuster, you’re not going to have a shutdown,” Trump added.
“You can do everything. You can do great health care if you get rid of the filibuster.
We can do everything we want.”

Matthew Yglesias argued that when several Democrats surrendered to open up government without reaching announced goals, it was not "moderation." He says Mamdani agreeing to employ the current Chief of Police of New York City was an act of moderation, but it does not make him a moderate. He thinks the surrender coalition wanted to preserve the #filibuster. With Trump as president, I think that keeping the filibuster is a good idea, because it is one of the only checks on his craziest impulses.
