Thune is a POS!
LOL, your Trump Cultism is showing. Why would John Thune, or any other U.S. Senator, want to relinquish his/their right to approve or disapprove a candidate nominated for the federal judiciary or the Cabinet, especially by a moron who has shown himself to be a candidate for application of the 25th Amendment??

The House has a pro forma session today at 10 a.m, while the Senate has one at 1 p.m.


It’s a shame Congressional Republicans won’t allow @RealDonaldTrump/@POTUS to make recess appointments.


2/3 of the 93 U.S. Attorney positions are NOT yet filled by a Trump appointee confirmed by the Senate.

With a rock-solid 53-47 Republican Senate majority, these gutless, backstabbing traitors are outright REFUSING to pass the exact Republican legislation the Republican-controlled House already rammed through!

This is the smoking-gun proof that the entire “two-party system” is a complete and utter debunked fallacy. America doesn’t have two parties… we have ONE corrupt, uniparty machine masquerading as two, both wings owned by the same elites and united in screwing over the voters who keep falling for their disgusting charade!

Good ******* morning!

In November of 2024, most Patriots thought they had elected a government to implement an America First agenda.

The House has largely done that, passing the SAVE America Act and quite a bit of America First legislation.

So is the Senate also prioritizing America First?

No - not at all. Well then, what have been their priorities?

1. Making sure Democrats can exercise their Blue Slips to block Republican judicial appointments.

2. Running pro forma sessions to make sure President Trump can't make any recess appointments.

3. Keeping America First legislation bottled up in Committee.

4. Putting on a magnificent Dog Parade.

You can't make this stuff up!!!

MAGA patience with Thune is gone.



Being in the MAJORITY does NOT happen by accident in American politics.


A White House majority.
A Senate majority.
A House majority.


That alignment is RARE.


The American people gave Republicans that power in 2024 for ONE reason:


They wanted President Trump to have the ability to execute his final term agenda without constant obstruction.


Voters knew exactly what they were doing.


After years of border chaos, inflation, cultural insanity, weak leadership and weaponized institutions, Americans handed Republicans the political capital to actually govern.


But today, Republicans keep acting like they’re the minority party.


Some of these politicians KNOW what it’s like when Democrats control power.


Democrats steamroll their agenda.
They pressure holdouts.
They enforce party discipline.
They move aggressively.
They use every ounce of institutional leverage available.


Meanwhile Republicans get the majority and immediately start negotiating against themselves.


Every time there’s a major fight:


- a few cave
- a few panic over media headlines
- a few suddenly become “concerned moderates”
- and Democrats end up getting leverage they never earned at the ballot box


That is NOT what voters gave Republicans power to do.


The American people did not vote for a Republican majority so it could behave like an apologetic consulting firm terrified of confrontation.


They voted for RESULTS.


A majority means USING power.
Not borrowing it temporarily before surrendering it back to the minority.


@LeaderJohnThune, the people are tired of you acting like you're a minority leader.

TEXAS SENATE RACE: Ken Paxton won 252 counties out of 254 with Cornyn only winning Travis County (Austin) and tiny Kenedy County (winning just 6 out of 8 votes). Cornyn and the Senate Republicans spent more money on this campaign than any other Senate campaign in history and lost by double digits. Imagine what the GOP could have done with that money in the 12 House toss-up seats. Embarrassing hubris on display in Texas - shame on you Cornyn, shame on you Thune.

Senate RINOs ... your comfortable little game of pretending to be conservatives is finished.

John Cornyn just got slaughtered in Texas like a sacrificial lamb, and every gutless establishment hack in the upper chamber better take notes before the blade comes for you next.

Ken Paxton didn’t just win ... he eviscerated the four-term incumbent 63% to 36%, racking up nearly 886,000 votes to Cornyn’s pathetic 502,000. When the smoke cleared, the ultimate DC survivor was left with exactly two counties: Austin’s liberal circus and one worthless South Texas dot he barely stole by six votes to two.

That’s your future if you keep stalling.

Here’s the ultimatum, straight from the Texas base, and it’s non-negotiable: Pass Trump’s agenda or find a new career. We are done with your 24 years of seniority, your fake bipartisanship, and your endless excuses while America First priorities rot in committee hell. You had your chance. You blew it.

Trump’s endorsement is still a death sentence for the old guard. The working-class Latino voters flooding to Republicans in El Paso, Hidalgo, and Harris Counties are locking down the map for good. And Paxton’s ironclad record on election integrity just proved voters want fighters, not your polished, do-nothing résumés.

Every single Senator still dragging their feet on the border, election security, or Trump’s priorities just got served official notice.

The base is loaded, pissed off, and holding the primary ballots.

Get in line right now or get absolutely purged.

Tick tock, you spineless frauds. The Texas verdict is coming for the rest of you.

Senate RINOs, grab your tissues ... your boy John Cornyn just got the most savage performance review in Texas history.

Four terms, 24 years of “experience,” that warm grandfatherly smile, never divorced, probably went to seminary for all we know… and the voters still looked at his résumé and said, “C minus. Pack your ****.”

Ken Paxton didn’t beat him. He fired him. 63% to 36%. Nearly 886,000 votes to Cornyn’s sad little 502,000. When the final tally came in, the ultimate establishment lifer had won exactly two counties ... liberal Austin’s Travis County (shocker) and one dusty South Texas afterthought he clung to by six whole votes to two.

Congratulations, Senator. That’s what 24 years of “bipartisanship” and stalling Trump’s agenda gets you: a pink slip and a participation trophy made of two counties.

We didn’t vote for “nice.” We didn’t vote for your carefully managed image or your fancy committee titles. This was a straight-up accountability review, and you failed every metric that actually matters to the base. Had you grown a spine and rammed the SAVE Act through, maybe you’d still be here. Instead, you got reviewed, rated, and removed.

Paxton ran ahead in heavy Hispanic counties, proved substance beats your polished nothing-burger optics, and reminded everyone Trump’s endorsement is still a lethal weapon.

So enjoy your retirement party, Cornyn. The rest of you Senate dead weight are next on the HR docket.

Performance review season is open.Pass the agenda or get fired with extreme prejudice.

The base just handed out the first pink slip. More to follow.
