GOP senators, frustrated with Democratic delays, are considering major moves to fast-track President Trump’s nominees, including changing Senate rules and using recess appointments. During a closed‑door meeting, options like cutting debate times, removing cloture votes, and expanding en‑bloc confirmations were discussed. Senate Majority Leader John Thune warned Democrats that their obstruction could backfire, while senators like Eric Schmitt suggested all options are on the table, Axios has reported. Though no decisions have been made, there’s strong momentum for action to break the confirmation logjam.
