特朗普敦促参议院共和党人终结阻挠议事
福克斯新闻资深白宫记者杰奎·海因里希在《特别报道》中带来国土安全部拨款辩论的最新进展。

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普要求参议院共和党人罢免参议院的规则仲裁者，此前为其舞厅申请的安保经费被否决。
周三，特朗普将怒火指向参议院议事主持人伊丽莎白·麦克多诺——这位无党派人士负责裁定哪些内容可以通过预算和解程序。
共和党目前正试图强行通过一项720亿美元的移民执法拨款法案，但麦克多诺在上周末删除了特朗普的一项主要诉求：10亿美元拨款，其中部分资金将用于升级他提出的规模庞大的白宫舞厅项目安保。

“令人震惊的是，共和党人将‘议事主持人’这一至关重要的职位交给了一名女性，伊丽莎白·麦克多诺，她很久以前是由巴拉克·侯赛因·奥巴马和一名被称为‘疯子’的邪恶参议员哈里·里德任命的，里德曾用‘铁腕’统治民主党参议院，”特朗普在真相社交平台上写道。
“多年来，她对共和党人一直十分严苛，但对民主党人却并非如此——那为什么她还没有被替换？有很多公正人士完全胜任这一关键职位，”他继续说道。
但共和党人并不愿意这么做，尤其是为了报复舞厅安保经费被删除一事。本周早些时候，特朗普私下敦促参议院多数党领袖、南达科他州共和党人约翰·图恩罢免麦克多诺。
图恩表示，他没有就解雇麦克多诺进行任何讨论，但指出每当涉及和解程序时，人们都会对议事主持人感到愤怒。

“总会有人对做出的某些决定不满，这是这类工作的本质。所以，我们将推进相关程序，尽最大努力在本周晚些时候将我们想要的内容提交全院投票，”图恩说。
尽管如此，共和党人仍在就是否纳入安保经费争论不休。这笔资金中约6亿美元将用于特勤局，另外2.2亿美元旨在加强东翼现代化项目的安保。
参议院司法委员会主席、爱荷华州共和党人查克·格拉斯利负责的法案部分包含了这项有争议的拨款。他指出，在和解程序中，被议事主持人否决的并非只有共和党人的提案。
“我认为最好的回答是，在拜登政府执政期间，议事主持人的裁决也表明，他们的和解提案并没有得到所有想要的东西，”格拉斯利说。
和图恩一样，其他共和党人也承认和解程序困难重重，但不值得因此解雇麦克多诺。
共和党参议员要求罢免议事主持人，因其否决特朗普‘宏伟法案’中的医保条款
“为了什么？”当被问及麦克多诺是否应该下台时，路易斯安那州共和党人约翰·肯尼迪说，“她是酒驾了还是怎么着？”
这也不是共和党人第一次要求解雇麦克多诺。去年，在麦克多诺删除了原本会大幅削减医保开支的条款后，党内少数人就要求更换她。
当时，堪萨斯州共和党人罗杰·马歇尔告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，已经有先例可以这么做。
“2001年，多数党领袖特伦特·洛特在和解程序期间解雇了参议院议事主持人，”马歇尔说。

威斯康星州共和党人罗恩·约翰逊告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，问题的真正根源在于60票的阻挠议事门槛。
共和党选择和解程序，是因为他们无法从参议院民主党人那里获得足够票数突破门槛，在不对移民执法拨款做出大幅让步的情况下为国土安全部（DHS）提供资金。
“我们终结阻挠议事的可能性，和摆脱议事主持人的可能性一样渺茫，所以不如向共和党人施压，让他们解决根源问题，也就是60票门槛，”约翰逊说。

Trump demands Senate parliamentarian’s ouster for axing ballroom security funding

Elizabeth MacDonough ruled against $1B in funding that included security enhancements for Trump’s colossal ballroom

Trump urges Senate Republicans to stop filibuster
Fox News senior White House correspondent Jacqui Heinrich has the latest on the DHS funding debate on ‘Special Report.’

President Donald Trump wants Senate Republicans to boot the upper chamber’s rules referee after security funding for his ballroom was nixed.
Trump pointed his fury on Wednesday at Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough, who holds a nonpartisan role that dictates what can and cannot make it through the budget reconciliation process.
Republicans are currently trying to ram through a $72 billion immigration enforcement funding package, but MacDonough over the weekend stripped out one of Trump’s major requests for $1 billion to, in part, pay for security enhancements to his colossal White House ballroom project.

“Shockingly, Republicans have kept the very important position of ‘Parliamentarian’ in the hands of a woman, Elizabeth MacDonough, who was appointed, long ago, by Barack Hussein Obama and a vicious Lunatic known as Senator Harry Reid, who ran the Senate for the Dumocrats with an ‘iron fist,’” Trump said on Truth Social.
“Over the years, she has been brutal to Republicans, but not so to the Dumocrats — So why has she not been replaced? There are many fair people who would be qualified for that vital job,” he continued.
But it’s not a move Republicans are keen to make, especially in retaliation for the ballroom security funding getting stripped out. Trump earlier this week privately pushed Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., to axe MacDonough.
Thune said he wasn’t having any discussions on firing MacDonough, but noted that tempers flare against the parliamentarian “every time there’s a reconciliation.”

“There are always people that are unhappy with some decisions that come down, and it’s kind of the nature of the beast. So, you know, we will work through the process and do our best to get the things that we want, you know, on the floor, later this week,” Thune said.
Still, Republicans are continuing to haggle over whether to include the security funding at all. Much of the money, about $600 million, would go to the Secret Service, while $220 million was intended to bolster security on the East Wing Modernization project.
Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, whose portion of the package contained the controversial funding, noted that the parliamentarian hasn’t just ruled against Republicans during reconciliation.
“I think the best answer to that is that the parliamentarian has demonstrated in the Biden administration with their recommendations, reconciliations that they didn’t get everything they wanted,” Grassley said.
Like Thune, other Republicans recognized that reconciliation is difficult, but not worth firing MacDonough over.

“For what,” Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., said when asked if MacDonough should go. “Does she have a DWI or something?”
It’s also not the first time that Republicans have called for MacDonough to be fired. Last year, after MacDonough stripped out provisions that would have caused steep cuts to Medicaid spending, a handful in the GOP demanded that she be replaced.
Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., told Fox News Digital at the time that there was already a precedent in place to do it.
“In 2001, Majority Leader Trent Lott fired the Senate parliamentarian during reconciliation,” Marshall said.

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., told Fox News Digital that the true root cause of the issue was the 60-vote filibuster threshold.
Republicans took the reconciliation route because they couldn’t muster enough votes from Senate Democrats to smash through the threshold and fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) without making steep concessions on immigration enforcement funding.
“We’re as likely to end the filibuster as we are to get rid of the parliamentarian, so you might as well put pressure on Republicans to address the root cause, which is the 60-vote threshold,” Johnson said.
