Fetterman Walks Back Filibuster Push, Reframes It as a Senate Safeguard

Sen. John Fetterman says Democrats were “horribly wrong” to seek to eliminate the Senate filibuster and now argues the 60-vote rule protects minority voices, marking a shift from his 2022 campaign stance as Republicans hold power and pressure mounts around voting rights and related battles; the update also notes pressure from Trump to end the filibuster, plus other Senate moves including McConnell’s rehab and talks involving OpenAI’s Altman and Warner.
