Now you need 60 votes in the Senate
Apparently the Democrats agreed to a new Senate rule that requires bills to gain a 60-vote filibuster-proof majority to move forward. WTF?
So the GOP is filibustering without having to do the filibustering. What is going on? Can anyone explain?

I don't believe that there is any such rule. Sixty + votes are needed to overcome a filibuster so there is need for 60+ votes to overcome the filibuster and thereby pass some of the more controversial (by R standards) pieces of legislation.
