Trump calls on Senate to end filibuster as US government shutdown nears record length

United States President Donald Trump has urged Senate Republicans to eliminate the filibuster rule to end a federal government shutdown that has stretched into its fifth week. In a post on his Truth Social account on Thursday, Trump blasted Democrats as “Crazed Lunatics” and called on his party to use the so-called “Nuclear Option” to bypass the Senate’s 60-vote requirement. “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!” he wrote. “We are in power, and if we did what we should be doing, it would immediately end this ridiculous, country-destroying shutdown.” The filibuster is a long-standing Senate procedure that allows lawmakers to block or delay legislation by prolonging debate.

Schumer warns of shutdown fight with Trump, GOP

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is signaling a tougher stance in the latest government funding battle, warning that Democrats are prepared to block a stopgap measure unless Republicans roll back some of their most controversial policies.

House Advances “OBBB” Toward Final Vote On July 2–3, 2025, the Republican-majority U.S. House cleared a critical procedural hurdle by passing a 219–213 motion, enabling full debate on Trump’s sweeping tax and spending package—known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB)”. The bill, already approved by the Senate with Vice President Vance’s tie-breaking vote, blends expanded tax cuts, deep entitlement reductions, increased immigration enforcement funding, elimination of green-energy incentives, and a $5 trillion debt-ceiling hike. High-Stakes Debate Highlights Republican Unity is Fragile – The GOP’s slim margin (220–212) allows for just three defections. Speaker Mike Johnson and Trump worked late into the night to sway hesitant lawmakers. Democratic Resistance – Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries blocked the House floor with a marathon speech, calling it an “abomination” and warning that the Medicaid cuts could cause unnecessary deaths. The Congressional Budget Office projects nearly 12 million Americans […]
