Senate Republicans eye Democrats’ old rule change to push Trump nominees through blockade

newYou can now listen to Fox News!
Republicans in the Senate are close to changing the rules of the Upper Chamber to allow a large number of candidates from the lowest level of President Donald Trump, as they close to a proposal to revive the Democrats to do so.
Hope for Republicans is that the use of a tool that the Democrats in the Senate is once allowed to avoid the transition to the “nuclear cucumber”, which means changing the rule by a simple majority.
“Democrats must support it, because their original proposal that we continue in,” said the majority in the Senate, to Fox News Digital. “I will not be surprised if they don’t do it. This historical obstacle by Democrats all play to their liberal base that hates President Trump.”

Republicans gathered throughout the week behind the closed doors to discuss their options and began to collect a proposal that would allow them to take one vote to confirm a group of candidates, also known as “En Bloc”.
To date, he was the only candidate to make her through the Senate easily was Foreign Minister Marco Rubio in January. Since then, various positions have been accumulated throughout the bureaucracy and have not received an audio vote or passed with consensus unanimously-two of the rapid procedures used commonly for the lower level sites in the administration.
The majority leader of the Senate John Thun, Rurawi, said that before the Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer, Din.
“This is the first president in history, at this stage of his presidency, he did not have at least one candidate clearly with consent unanimously or an audio vote,” he said. “He has never seen what they are doing. He must be stopped.”

The number of candidates to evaluate the Senate continues to grow, as it reached 149 choices pending confirmation this week. The goal will be to change this rule before lawmakers leave the city for a week starting from September 22.
The idea comes from the legislation it proposed in 2023 by Sens. Amy Klobuchar, D-MINN. Angus King, I-Maine, and former Senator Ben Cardin, D-MD. Republicans are looking to spin, such as not limiting the number of candidates in the group in a group or with the exception of judicial candidates.
Republicans prefer to avoid the nuclear go-on-the last time the nuclear option was used in 2019, when the majority leader Mitch McConnell, RK, reduced the time for the discussion of the candidates to two hours-but they are ready to do so, given that the Democrats did not skip in cases of isolation.
They may only be a general offer for resistance.
“Democrats in particular support what Republicans talk about,” a senior aide in the Republican party familiar with the negotiations told Fox News Digital. “They are very afraid to admit it.”
Senator James Lancford, who worked with Thun and Parasu on the vacation to build a consensus on the proposal to change the base, said Fox News Digit that his Democratic fellow acknowledged that they had “created an unnecessary precedent.”

“But they will say after that, but my progressive base screams in my face to fight, but I want it. I know that I am harmful to the Senate, but I showed that I am fighting,” said my Republica Oklahoma.
“We feel the hung, I mean, literally,” Lanford continued. “Some of my colleagues said,” We are not those who go to the nucleus. They are the ones who walk nuclear. “
Klobuchar Fox News Digital told her that she appreciated her previous work with Lankford about “Ways to make the Senate Better” but she was not ready to get out of the GOP version of its legislation.
She said: “When I suggested that, it was supposed to pass as legislation, which means that you would need votes from the two parties, and the reason that does not happen now is that the president continues to show off the law.”

Not every democracy in the Senate on the siege of the sentence.
Senator John Vetterman, D-Pay, told Fox News Digitter that legislators should all behave in a way that departments, either Republicans or Democrats, have “these basic types of considerations” for candidates.
“This is not the resistance,” he said. “I just think this is not useful to go forward. I mean, you can oppose people like adults, whether it is [Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.] Kennedy or others.
