Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren
She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements.
Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service.
JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes.
The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%.
For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%.
Warren said no.
She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024.
Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year.
Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug.
510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December.
14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight.
And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms.
Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back.
40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market.
And the math ain’t mathing.
Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%.
That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.”
So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money?
Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years.
Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do.
Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.”
A win.
14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight.
And she’s taking credit.
This is socialism in 2026.
A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company.
She saved you a billion on imaginary paper.
She cost you ten times that in real life.
She didn’t protect consumers from anything.
14,000+ will go from working to welfare.
She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed.
Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything.
She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.
I've tried rewriting this to be less angry…
Screw that.
I'm fucking sick and tired of the GOP pretending like they can't do anything.
WHAT THE FUCK YOU MEAN "WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING"???
Don't any of you realize what's at stake here?
Do any of you actually give a damn about the country or where Democrats will take it once they gain power?
Are you not paying attention AT ALL to what's happening?
If Democrats win the midterms... it's over.
Fucking done.
No DOGE cuts.
No Executive Orders codified.
No opportunity to cut legislative regulations.
None of it.
And guess what happens after that?
They start passing bills.
They actually do everything you won't do, for God-only-knows-what-reason...
They nuke the filibuster DAY ONE.
They start ramming through insanity.
Transgender plays in Uganda are back.
Elmo in Afghanistan comes back.
NPR/PBS funding is back.
ICE gets defunded.
ALL OF THIS IS ON THE TABLE AND YOU DO...
…NOTHING TO TRY TO STOP THE ABSOLUTE SHIT STORM THAT IS ABOUT TO BEFALL YOU????
YOU CAN’T EVEN PASS THE SAVE ACT SO AT THE VERY LEAST WE CAN HAVE ELECTION INTEGRITY???
YOU WON'T DEFUND THE FUCKING TALIBAN????
WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE GOP????!!!!!!
The playbook is obvious.
It's been staring you in the face this entire time.
Yet you are content to ONCE AGAIN TAKE LOOOOOOONG vacations and make bullshit tweets, Fox News appearances and cringe-ass TikTok videos and do podcasts blaming Democrats.
WE DO NOT GIVE A SINGLE FUCK ABOUT YOUR CONTENT.
NOT ONE!!!
We want you to deliver results.
That's ALL WE HAVE EVER WANTED FROM YOU.
Do any of you seriously think you'll win again without Trump on the ballot to drag your sorry asses over the finish line?
You think you'll be able to come back home and look us in the eye and make up excuses for why you didn't deliver?
No way.
Maybe that worked for you in the past, but not this time.
The stakes are far, far too high.
Stop talking about what you’d do, “if only you had the power.”
You have power. Right now. Today.
And if you’re too cowardly to use it… then STOP ASKING FOR MORE OF IT FROM US.
“We can’t do anything” is no longer a valid excuse for your pathetic performance, it’s just a confession that you don't care enough to try.
It’s you admitting you’re fine with losing.
You’re fine with the country going to hell in the hands of the Left.
Would you PLEASE fight for us by actually PASSING LAWS????
Use every lever you’re allowed to touch and make Democrats explain, on record, why they’re voting the way they’re voting.
Put clean, single-issue bills on the floor and make them vote yes or no.
Make them OWN it.
If your own GOP leadership blocks it? Then NAME them. LOUDLY.
Don't let them hide. Be relentless.
All gas, no breaks until the midterms.
I am literally watching you treat the most important moment in politics like a content calendar...
...and I’m telling you right now, our collective patience for this crap is GONE.
And Trump won't be there to save you either when it's election time and you ask us for votes and we ask you for your record.
None of us are asking for perfection.
We’re literally just asking for ANY PROOF AT ALL that you care about America enough to save her.
Deliver results.
Or don’t be surprised when the people you keep taking for granted stop showing up to rescue you from yourself.
Hello Senator Thune,
At 3 AM on Friday, March 27th, in a near-empty chamber, you passed a bill by voice vote that excludes all funding for ICE and CBP.
Let me repeat that: voice vote. No roll call. No record of who was there. No accountability. Just you, Barrasso, and a handful of senators shuffling paper in the dead of night while America slept.
You could have demanded a recorded vote. You chose not to.
You could have held the line for five more days until the House returned. You chose not to.
You could have used the same procedural tools Democrats have used against you for 40 days. You chose not to.
Instead, you gave Chuck Schumer exactly what he asked for, DHS funding minus immigration enforcement, and called it a win. Then you walked to the cameras and blamed the Democrats.
Let's be precise about what you did:
1. You caved to a demand Democrats made on Day 1 of this shutdown. Forty-one days of supposed hardball negotiation, and you settled for their opening offer.
2. You handed them a template. The next time Democrats want to defund any agency — ICE, CBP, or anything else — they now know: just shut down DHS and wait. John Thune will fold at 3 AM.
3. You punted to reconciliation. "Good possibility," you said. Not "we will." Not "guaranteed." Just maybe. Meanwhile, ICE operates on fumes from last year's bill with no certainty of future funding.
The precedent you set:
You have argued for months that the filibuster is sacrosanct. That the 60-vote threshold protects minority rights. That we cannot bend Senate rules for policy wins.
But at 3 AM on Friday, you bent every norm that actually mattered:
• Voice vote to avoid accountability
• Empty chamber to avoid debate
• Midnight deal to avoid scrutiny
• Immediate recess to avoid questions
You'll bend the rules to avoid a fight. You just won't bend them to win one.
What you've actually accomplished:
Democrats demanded ICE restrictions. They got ICE defunded.
Not reformed. Not restrained. Defunded.
And you're out here tweeting about how Democrats are the "Defund the Police" party while you just voted to defund border enforcement at 3 in the morning.
The question you should answer:
Why did this deal have to happen at 3 AM?
Why couldn't it happen at 3 PM, with cameras rolling and every senator on record?
You know why. Because you didn't want your voters to see what surrender looks like.
Here's my message: We saw it anyway.
Stop hiding behind "Democrat obstruction." You're the Majority Leader. You set the schedule. You control the floor. You chose this outcome.
Own it.
Let that sink in: Just 535 fucking people in Washington act like they’re entitled to run the lives of 330 million Americans.
The very people who pay their goddamn salaries, fund their bullshit perks and guarantee their bloated pensions.
And here’s what should really make your blood boil:
They’ve stopped acting like public servants and started behaving like they’re untouchable assholes.
They treat us like cash cows and voting cattle while they jet around on our dime, insider trade their way to millions, and pass laws they exempt themselves from.
I’m fucking sick of it.
These arrogant pricks have forgotten who the hell they work for and it’s long past time we remind them with a goddamn reckoning.
Fuck you @GOP and fuck you @TheDemocrats.
@mtgreenee This was from an Iranian missile. You are sharing a fake narrative. Being that you QUIT, shouldn’t you just go away? We are all tired of your nasty attacks.
Teachers: Your dues are funding the left, not your classroom.
NEA pockets $390 million a year in teacher union dues and funnels 99% of it straight to Democrats.
But @EDSecMcMahon just dropped the bomb: Union dues are 100% optional nationwide.
OPT OUT NOW.
Stop bankrolling leftist indoctrination with your hard-earned money.
America First = teachers keep their cash + kids get real education.
Break the brainwashing taking place in our schools.
JUST IN: President Trump tells everyone to stand during his SOTU speech who believe the first duty of the U.S. government is to protect American citizens, not illegal immigrants.
Almost no Democrats stood up.
I don't know Erika Kirk.
I do know Candace Owens.
Erika met the moment of her husband's assassination with a grace unimaginable.
Candace met the moment of her so-called friend's assassination as she meets every moment -- focused on herself and her insatiable hunger for fame and aggrandizement.
If you find yourself believing the latter in her smears of the former, please know you are being manipulated by one of the best in the business. But you're still wrong and in the wrong.
May God open your eyes to the evil you are participating in, and may God bless Erika Kirk.
