It's long past time to stop giving passes to the squishes. They are taking the 20% side of an 80-20 issue. There is no reasonable explanation for that. A Democrat would vote the same way.

Cruz messing around with sec is going to lose my support too.

So evidently Trump has decided that nothing shall be done until the SAVE America Act is put in place in some form or fashion.

After pulling the DNI nomination, he just cancelled a trip to Capitol Hill to sign the housing affordability act, and did so during Mile Johnsons presser.

Thune needs to lead or preferably get the **** out of the way.

It doesn't need his signature to become law. If he wanted to make a real stand he would veto the bill.

Uh, yeah. He said that clear in March!

It supersedes everything else. MUST GO TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE. I, as President, will not sign other Bills until this is passed, AND NOT THE WATERED DOWN VERSION GO FOR THE GOLD: MUST SHOW VOTER I.D. & PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP: NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS EXCEPT FOR MILITARY ILLNESS, DISABILITY, TRAVEL: NO MEN IN WOMEN'S SPORTS: NO TRANSGENDER MUTILIZATION FOR CHILDREN! DO NOT FAIL!!!"

Right, but he setup a signing even then cancelled at last minute. Put out DNO nom then pulled it.

He keeping's bringing it up and hopefully, though unfortunately not likely, goading Thune into action.

If they continue to drag feet, will Trump declare some sort of national emergency? It's time to push this to the max.

It ain't Thune he needs to goad. The "poor four" is who need to have their hearts & minds changed.

Sure, that too. But if he cannot get those 4 to act, then it falls back on him.

I would think we agree whatever it takes something should be done.

"Something" needs to be done for sure, but figuring out what that "something" is, now that's the $1 million question!

McConnell & Tillis won't vote yes if their life depended on it. Collins can't risk losing to the commie. Murkowski? That hag's TDS also off the charts!

So nothing is lost. Collins gone doesn't bother me knowing that GA and MI are very much in play for the GOP to get back.

Get rid of the obstructionists and shoe that were done with their *****

If Thune can't get the caucus in lockstep like the Dems do whenever something NEEDS to happen, he has no business being Majority Leader and controlling the purse strings

The bolded is going to be done where it can be.

But nuking the filibuster for nothing makes no sense right now. If we lose the House (or Senate, though less likely) this year, we have the nuked the filibuster and can't do anything with that advantage. If the Dems take over in 2028, we are screwed for sure.

---

Democrats are going to nuke the filibuster as soon as they can. Please don't be fooled thinking if we don't do it they won't do it. Look at results from primaries last night. These are radical dems ready to make changes to kill the constitution. They are the Democratic Party and will run off any establishment democrats to secure their end goal.

Repeal the 17th.

Love that!

May not get done by end of this year though!
