Secretary Scott Bessent urged Senate Republicans to drop the 60 vote filibuster to pass the SAVE America Act, calling the standoff a “prisoner’s dilemma” and saying when the other side won’t play fair you must “move first.” He warned it is “kill or be killed,” urged selective elimination of the filibuster for priority items like voter integrity and to prevent a government shutdown, and outlined a plan for Republicans to act preemptively rather than wait for Democratic obstruction. The comments, shared widely on social media and in interviews, raise pressure on GOP leaders weighing rule changes to advance the bill. (twstalker.com)
