Capitol agenda: GOP gets louder as Trump gets pushier
President Donald Trump's recent actions, including a Truth Social post disrupting GOP plans to confirm Jay Clayton as director of national intelligence and revive a surveillance bill, have strained relations with Senate Republicans. Senators expressed frustration over Trump's uncoordinated decisions and demands, such as pushing to eliminate the filibuster and pass the SAVE America Act, which complicate legislative efforts ahead of midterms.
