Should the Filibuster Fall to End the Shutdown
Update: 2025-10-22
Description
Todd tackles the core question of the moment: should the Senate filibuster be set aside to reopen the government? He breaks down how cloture works, why a simple majority could be enough under the so-called “nuclear option,” and why he says this is a Schumer-led shutdown. Todd also reacts to Sen. John Fetterman’s surprising openness to scrapping the filibuster for funding bills and a rare moment of clarity on The View where Bernie Sanders concedes a fair point about lawmakers’ pay during a shutdown. Plus: the left’s outrage over Trump’s White House ballroom project, and what history tells us about renovations at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Conservative, not bitter—just the facts, the mechanics, and the stakes.
