SD sure is strange

I'm remembering back when they got rid of Daschle, lol

The Natl Democrat Party got far more progressive than SD would agree with and Daschle was out there as the mouthpiece

Now Thune, I guess his colors have just taken longer to reveal



They had some weirdness on the transgender issue too. I think I remember a few years back, they had a Republican majority in both legislative chambers and they sent a law banning youth gender transitions to a Republican governor who vetoed it. It turns out they have a fairly powerful pharmaceutical lobby in the state that didn't want the ban.

Maybe I'm thinking of North Dakota. Also, I probably can't find the article/podcast that talked about it.

In any event, Thune has to go. I'm sure he has an entrenched political machine like Harry Reid did in Nevada.



Yes that was a few years back. Noem vetoed it. Her chief of staff was in tight with big pharma. Sure she got some kickbacks for the veto also.

Ah, I was wrong then...but given what we learned about her 'husband' this no longer shocks me!

You would think at this point Republican senators and congresspeople would not underestimate nor make enemies with Scott Pressler. I hope Thune gets Cornyn'd so bad.

Got it.

I don't follow all of the "influencers", so ...yeah ...

Does "Thune" = "Stupid" in some language?

I hear you, but this guy goes far beyond influencers. He has put in the work w/ boots on the ground more than anyone I can think of and it's not even close. There are Charlie Kirk's who have a massive public reach and influence and are great at what they do in these roles, and then there are guys like this...putting in real work and effort on the ground. Not for fame, money or likes. That's not at all a bash on Charlie Kirk or a claim that these are the things that drove him...just a big nod to this guy.

Pressler was most likely the reason Trump won PA in 2024. Sad to see this stuff, but not surprising.

if you want to know what wikipedia says about Presler:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Presler

This might give you an idea about why some people don't want to be associated with him.

LOL at wikipedia. It's leftwing, biased garbage. They even banned one of their founders because he wanted to end the leftwing bias.

Left-leaning website Wikipedia has taken the drastic action of permanently blocking one of its founders from editing pages after he had campaigned to make it more balanced and fair.

My daughter Hilary '12 was on a flight with him to McAllen. I met him in baggage claim and we had a very nice chat. He was down there to personally see the border situation.

Isn't the average age of the senate in the 70's? It would go fast if they attempted it.

Exactly. The average age of Senators has turned the filibuster into the Flomax Dilemma. If they walk into the Senate chambers and it is evident that they are wearing Depends underneath their trousers, then they are serious.

Why would he not want Pressler there?


Because even the "conservative" gays are annoying?


And not a constituent, In the upper Midwest states they can get away with being impolite to outsiders because for a very long time outside mineral and rail interests bought all the local elected officials

I think Montana has the tightest controls on outside money in politics

I'll address it. There are what could very well be dubious claims made by notorious left leaning organizations in the Wiki article. The language is absolute when it shouldn't be in many cases. That said, I pretty much have no problem with the views in there, just the way they are presented as absolute fact. Qanon and hard core stolen 2020 election views go a bit far for me.

Don't forget that until recent elections the most radical left wing Democrat to run for president, George McGovern, was from South Dakota.

Once you have personally ensured that 50,000 Mennonites get registered to vote, you are then allowed to comment on Pressler's hairstyle. Until then, get a dog.
It takes a special kind of brainwashed useful idiot to politically defend government fraud, waste, and abuse.

You don't get to pimp morally bankrupt freaks like Talarico and Planter and then call others out. You lost that high ground.

All because of raw milk sales and vaccines...PA had a good thing going for the dems until they pushed the wrong buttons.

This is how you know Scott Pressler is over target. Keep up the good work Scott. They start with character assassination and then move to actual assassination. I hope Pressler has a top notch security team.

100% agreed.

But it's bigger than that. 84% of the population, including close to 78% of dems support voter ID laws. There is ZERO reason, outside of fraud, the SAVE America Act shouldn't pass.

The dems lying about what it includes and how it makes it impossible for women and minorities to get ID's tells you all you need to know about the dems and their cheating ways….

Many Rs hate Trump and won't vote for it regardless. That's the root issue here.

The intelligence of many Rs is often suspect when they use emotional feelings rather than logic for how they vote. It's how Harris County got Dora and part of the reason that we were stuck with mindless auto signing Ol Joe for four years.

Yes that was a few years back. Noem vetoed it. Her chief of staff was in tight with big pharma. Sure she got some kickbacks for the veto also.

Which kickbacks?
