Punchbowl News: “House Republicans’ FISA debacle and their ongoing refusal to pass legislation to end the unprecedented Department of Homeland Security shutdown have made clear that there’s only one functional chamber on Capitol Hill right now — the Senate. And it’s barely so.”“This is putting a ton of new pressure on Senate Majority Leader John Thune, whose majority is suddenly at risk. President Donald Trump’s sagging approval ratings and the GOP’s inability to notch legislative wins due to constant infighting are a burden too.”“Plus, Thune is dealing with a MAGA onslaught over the SAVE America Act, a relentless push to gut the filibuster and an Iranian war that’s exacerbating affordability concerns while providing Democrats with new political ammo.”
