CNN Newsource reports that top congressional Republicans show no interest in ending the Senate filibuster despite President Donald Trump's late-night Truth Social demand that the Senate scrap it to end the 31-day government shutdown. Senate Majority Leader John Thune's spokesperson said his position is unchanged, and House Speaker Mike Johnson, calling Trump's post an expression of the president's anger, warned that without the filibuster Democrats would pack the Supreme Court, add Puerto Rico and DC as states, and ban firearms.
