Thune has told Trump he won’t attach the SAVE Act to the FISA bill as Trump requested because it's "unrealistic"

Why is 1 man allowed to stop what 84% of Americans want?

[Utahfarmers.org @Utahfarmersorg1]

No Vote Utah - Taxpayers don't get to vote on tax increases.

1,100 taxing agencies all wanting just a "little more."

Salt Lake City 12.5% tax hike.
Salt Lake County 14.65% tax hike.
Davis County 14.8% tax hike.
Cache County 18% tax hike.
Weber County 20% tax hike.

Other state let taxpayers vote on tax increases. Utax does not.

We've got an enemy within, and it's Senator Thune.

NOT PASSING THE SAVE AMERICA ACT

is the single biggest betrayal by the SENATE in 50 years.

...fraudulent elections will destroy our Republic...

YOU are responsible.
YOU have the power.
YOU choose not to wield it to save our Nation.

Hey @jasoninthehouse:
Can you ask
@celestemaloyut why she asked for an extension to file her financial disclosures
AFTER the primary?
Her previous financial disclosures were very simple. Has something changed about her financial situation?

[GnosisWolf @GnosisWolf]

Ooops! 🤦🏻‍♂️😂😂

It’s almost like there are natural balancing factors that humans can’t even fathom the magnitude of.

John Thune should be unemployed... The fact that not 1 GOP Senator has called for him to be removed is PATHETIC.

🚨BREAKING: Thune Advances FISA Extension Without Trump's SAVE Act Demand.

And there you have it.

100% Betrayal.

And EVERY member of the @SenateGOP is just as guilty.

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

Nuking the filibuster is NOT the only option for passing the SAVE America Act

There are other ways to break a filibuster that involve neither “nuking” it nor 60 votes

They all involve exhausting the obstructing senators—by making them speak

We haven’t done that

We should—now!

It is OUR money!!

Thank you Mr Secretary
Concerning Social Security payments, my contributions were made for over 40 years on every salary I received. Those jobs may not have always been the work I wanted to be doing at the time, BUT I always had a job. The Social Security check is now (or soon will be) referred to as a "Federal Benefit Payment?" I'll be part of the one percent to forward this.
I am forwarding it because it touches a nerve in me, and I hope it will in you. Please keep passing it on until everyone in our country has read it. The government is now referring to our Social Security checks as a "Federal Benefit Payment." This isn't a benefit. It is our money paid out of our earned income! Not only did we all contribute to Social Security but our employers did too. It totaled 15% of our income before taxes.
Congress took our money and used it elsewhere. They forgot (oh yes, they knew) that it was OUR money they were taking. They didn't have a referendum to ask us if we wanted to lend the money to them. And they didn't pay interest on the debt they assumed. And recently they've told us that the money won't support us for very much longer. And now, to add insult to injury, they're calling it a "benefit", as if we never worked to earn every penny of it.
Just because they borrowed the money doesn't mean that our investments were a charity!
Let's take a stand. We have earned our right to Social Security and Medicare. Demand that our legislators bring some sense into our government.
Find a way to keep Social Security and Medicare going for the sake of that 92% of our population who need it. Then call it what it is: Our Earned Retirement Income.

Please, for the sake of our country, share this message. It's important!!!

Utah has not built a new major reservoir in 40 years. Population has doubled. Water storage per person in Utah is down 50%.

Colorado is building new major reservoirs.

[NormieUtah @NormieUtah]

It turns out they did just steal our money. 😡

Governor Cox’s ‘24 campaign manager, Matt Lusty, set up a shell non-profit so he could take $2 million in no-bid, direct grant, taxpayer money arranged by Governor Cox.

Lusty cashed the checks, did some useless make work, and closed up shop in time for the ‘26 campaign season. A white collar smash and grab operation.

All technically “legal“, of course. And a clean get away. Minnesota Somali scammers could lear a thing or two from Utah.

[Sophie Anderson @SophieAnde49073]

The data from this solidifies the self own.

Crazy how Spencer Cox’s family business, Centracom, didn’t experience true lucrativeness until after he was put in the as LG. Nothing to see here.

[Nick Sortor @nicksortor]

🚨 JUST NOW: John Thune goes on TV making VERY clear he's TOO WEAK to get the SAVE America Act passed

Thune is HOPELESS. He needs to go. We've WASTED our Republican trifecta with Thune at the helm in the Senate.

Thune also REJECTED Trump's demand to attach the SAVE Act to FISA, saying it would "tank" the surveillance bill.

WHO CARES?! SAVE America Act is MUCH more important than your spy bill.

GET IT DONE OR RESIGN, THUNE!

New FCC Proposal 🚨 Phone companies will be allowed and required to keep a copy of all American’s government issued ID on file

Whenever you buy or activate any new phone service like a regular phone, iPhone, prepaid phone, even an extra SIM card, the company would have to:

- Scan and record your government ID (like driver’s license or passport).
- Get your real name and address.
- Ask for a backup phone number tied to you.

They’d keep these records on file

The FCC already issued a Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to strengthen “Know Your Customer” requirements for voice service providers

This is meant to fight robocalls but what it actually does it far worse. We don’t want a copy of our government IDs with phone carriers

[C3 @C_3C_3]

To use the internet…

Now everyone will have to register to prove they are over 16 years old to use it.

See how that works?

We’re protecting the children immediately turns into you must register.

Next is the Social Credit Score.

Then they have you.

This must stop now.

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

American water heater repairman says he’s noticed the average new water heaters last only about 7-10 years and then they must be replaced

But when he comes across old ones like this one from 1956, they last forever

This is because of a business model called Planned Obsolescence and it’s a business strategy companies now use to engineer produces to fail after a certain among of time

This way you have to keep buying the same product over and over again

This is a scam

Today I received a letter, just like my neighbor did, informing me that my California ballot was not counted because my "signature verification" supposedly didn't match the state's records. I've been voting in California for 20 years.

[Flopping Aces @FloppingAces]

California just did something incredibly stupid at the worst possible time.

By openly kneecapping Spencer Pratt in the primary, the state didn’t just protect Karen Bass from a competitive November race. It handed the rest of the country fresh, undeniable proof that their election system is designed to prevent any real challenge from ever reaching the general election. And they did it right as the Supreme Court is preparing to rule on late-arriving mail-in ballots in Watson v. Republican National Committee.

That timing matters. This wasn’t some quiet, behind-the-scenes adjustment. It was a very public execution of a candidate who was gaining traction with a modern campaign and a straightforward message. Everyone watching saw it happen in real time. The ballot drops, the sudden surge of a no-name candidate, the abrupt removal of the only outsider who was making noise ... it was all too obvious to ignore.

What California just proved is that their system cannot tolerate even the possibility of a close or uncomfortable race. Not because they fear losing power overnight, but because they fear voters seeing that the machine can be pressured at all. That revelation travels. It feeds directly into the growing national understanding that what’s happening in places like Los Angeles isn’t normal governance ... it’s managed decline protected by procedural games.

They showed their hand. And they did it at the exact moment the highest court in the country is about to decide how much longer these games are going to be allowed to continue.
