Senate Democrats tried to extort President Trump for $1 BILLION just to confirm his nominees.

Trump’s response?
“Go pound sand.”
Here’s what Senator Mullins just revealed—and what’s coming next 🧵
1/7

Senator Markwayne Mullins:
“I’ve spoken with President Trump a lot in the past 24 hours. Senate Democrats demanded a billion dollars in pet projects to move forward his nominees. Trump told them to pound sand. NO DEAL.”
2/7

Let that sink in:
Democrats are holding up government appointments unless Trump gives them a $1B taxpayer-funded bribe.

That’s not governing. That’s ransom.
3/7

This isn’t about partisanship. It’s about breaking the cycle of swamp blackmail.

Every delay = another day Americans get stuck with:

- Vacant leadership
- Bureaucratic chaos
- Backroom deals
4/7

Mullins says Trump has had enough.
The GOP is now preparing to change Senate rules to end this obstruction racket once and for all.

If the Left insists on playing dirty, we change the rules they’ve abused.
5/7

The swamp’s playbook:

1. Obstruct
2. Delay
3. Demand cash
4. Blame Trump

We’re done playing along.
No more payoffs.
No more hostage politics.
Just results.
6/7

Mark this moment:
Senate rule changes are coming.
The swamp’s extortion scheme just hit a wall—and that wall is President Trump.

Stay tuned. The fight’s just getting started. 🇺🇸
