@SenMikeLee But the Republican contempt for its voters, love for its donors, and obeisance to its beloved leader is disgraceful, shameful and disgusting. Including from @BasedMikeLee@SenMikeLee
FISA has been grossly abused. It does not deserve to exist. You are facilitating spying on Americans and subjecting them to nefarious creatures who claim, as you do, that the abuse of Americans is necessary for our "safety".
Ben Franklin had comments about creatures like you and your actions. The least profane and most appropriate was
@SenateGOP@SenTomCotton Focuses on FISA and undermining Trump. Doesn’t care about the SAVE Act. Just another deep state, uniparty politician who wants to spy on citizens.
We know that @BasedMikeLee@SenMikeLee is only about posturing this. He only wants to cosplay. He won’t act in America’s best interest because that would hurt his standing in the Senate club. We’re not important. But the Senate is, and that’s the only thing that matters.
We all accept that John Thune is a Trojan Horse for the Uniparty. What is most discouraging is the utter contempt the Republicans have for their 77,000,000 supporters who voted for President Trump’s agenda. Not even five Senators will honor the will of their own people.
🤮the GOP
@ScottDWinder17@ILOVEAMERI56259@BasedMikeLee Absolutely right. That’s why he tweets on this but does not act. It’s “Message: I care. I won’t do anything, but I care. Now remember to reelect me because I care. I won’t be there for you, but I care.”
@ILOVEAMERI56259@BasedMikeLee What do you mean other senators? @BasedMikeLee@SenMikeLee is just posturing, hoping you believe he cares about you and America. Instead he cares about the Senate, and only the Senate, and getting along with fellow Senators. You and me and America? Nope.
@BasedMikeLee Mikey, if you’re not willing to save America by doing WHATEVER it takes, including defenestrating Thune and his Democrat wife, then you don’t mean what you say. You’re still cosplaying. You’re still on the Senate team and not in the American team.
Mike says it would backfire badly, but he does not articulate HOW!
What it WOULD do is cause FRICTION in the party. It would EXPOSE who are willing to back up their words on X with action, and who are NOT.
It would paint a TARGET on the back of every senator who opposes Thune's removal.
Mike KNOWS this. Mike doesn't want to lose friends, status, or standing among the senate traitors.
Mike would rather the tail wag the dog, the compromised senators keep pulling the levers of power, the inmates run the asylum rather than doing ANYTHING MEANINGFUL.
Mike is a bag of hot air and should not be taken serious.
Trump took a bullet. Mike won't even make his "friends" in the senate uncomfortable.
@BasedMikeLee@Sasquatcher2@LoriMills4CA42 Translation: the Club Rules and Senate Comity are much more important than stopping voter fraud. We can live with Democrat cheating. We can’t live without the Senate Club. GOP senators, including Mike Lee, are not conservative. They’re part of the Borg. Mikey likes that.
The CA Legislature tried to strike these words from the state constitution in 2020 (put there by Prop 209 in 1996). The voters smacked them down when 57.23% said NO—despite the YES campaign outspending the NO team by more than 14 to 1. Now they’re trying again—calling it a “clarification” instead of an effort to gut the provision’s application to public education. Don’t believe them. If approved by the voters, this would be a major change. The aim is to pave the way for the recommendations of California’s Task Force on Reparations. The Task Force wants to make college free to African Americans no matter how well off their parents are and to get school districts to fund individual schools based on the race of the students who attend.
@christopherrufo
@brithume It’s simple. They get their “democracy.” They pass a law with 50%+1 to pass it, meaning maybe 30% of voter agree, maybe, then they take it. Because Our Democracy. They have one standard-POWER. Democracy gives them the fig leaf.
I knew the Senate would be a serious problem when they elected RINO John Thune as Majority Leader, RINO Mitch McConnell as chair of the Rules Committee and Susan Collins as chair of the Appropriations Committee. This was a massive "Fuck You" to the voters that gave them the majority. This is the fault of not only these three, but all the Republican Senators who elected them to "Leadership". @realDonaldTrump@POTUS@SenateGOP@LeaderJohnThune@JDVance
Why does everything feel like theater?
We have a Congress that won't pass something 83% people want.
We have a judicial system that doesn’t hold criminals accountable.
We have an education system that doesn’t educate.
We have a non-profit system that profits from our tax dollars.
We have a health care industry that profits from you staying sick.
We have a financial industry that needs you to stay in debt.
We have an insurance industry that fights every single claim.
It just all feels so fake, so theatrical.
@RandPaul ITS NOT JUST DEMOCRATS VOTING AGAINST THE SAVE ACT!!!!!
❌ Collins (R-ME)
❌ McConnell (R-KY)
❌ Murkowski (R-AK)
❌ Tillis (R-NC)
ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE TRAITORS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!!!!
IF WE CANNOT HAVE SECURE ELECTIONS WE CANNOT HAVE A COUNTRY.
