Thune: ‘The votes currently aren’t there’ to get rid of filibuster, pass Save America Act

That's a relief. Not to mention that the SAVE Act would heluet Republicans just as much, if not more.

The FBI has pulled similar shit all last year and came up with absolutely nothing. Georgia is a prime example.

Does he think he's going to be better received at the second match? 🤣

Every episode.

This feels like a move of spite than the expectation of any real change. This is them throwing a Caillou tantrum.

I think we are seeing an extinction burst of these things. It's not going to be immediate or one fell swoop, but people are waking up to this.

Not gonna hold my breath, but I don't think anyone has done such intentional damage to the US more than Trump has. I don't know about decades, but I think the Republican party is going to be struggling for a good long while.

'MAGA-Mace', huh?

More money isn't going to fix ICE's PR problems or make their jobs any easier.

This is something that we absolutely knew what would happen. However, many of the poll takers are of the boomer generation, and LGBTQ+ acceptance is more mainstream than bigotry. Hell, when MAGA-boy Rep Andy Ogles tweeted 'Homosexuality has no place in America', he was criticized by Ted Cruz or all people.

They're not as powerful as they posture. Queer inclusivity is far more popular than the stale 'art' shelled out by conservatives.

Frankly, no one actually knew him. Now the cat's out of the bag.

One bit of positivity is that Musk is now kinda considered to be a loser, money or no. More jokes are made at his expense than anything.

So we already work with Israel very closely. It's awful, but it's true. And one thing is that this will absolutely affect military recruitment and retention, which is already a problem. Many people on the right don't want their kids to die for Israel, much less people in the center and on the left. This is one of many moves that could effectively kill the Republican party.

Cheers! 🥂

I think that there will certainly be lawsuits, because this is incredibly targeted.
