@TomCottonAR I'm alarmed the Senate Republicans are ignoring the priorities of Americans. 80% want the Save America Act passed now, yet you and the rest of the Republicans won't even force a talking filibuster. And then there's the Pro Forma sessions that are preventing recess appointments.
We make it far too easy for senators in the minority to use the filibuster to kill bills supported by the majority.
The whole idea behind the filibuster has, from the beginning, been to protect and prolong debate—not to cut off debate, forcing the Senate to abandon any bill that doesn’t immediately receive the support of at least 60 senators.
Filibustering is supposed to require far more than opposing cloture.
Especially for bills of exceptional national importance—like the SAVE America Act—senators should be required to hold the floor and speak.
The minute filibustering senators stop doing that, the legislation can and should be passed at a simple-majority threshold.
This is not a radical idea.
This describes what the filibuster is, how it has historically operated, and how it should work today.
Share this message if you agree that the Senate—and the country as a whole—would be well served by a return to this approach.
Sir, I have some expertise in Senate rules and precedent. In fact, at one time you were one of a dozen senators who paid me for that.
The talking filibuster will work.
Senators who refuse to do this to pass the SAVE America Act are the ones demoralizing their own base.
@JohnCornyn The base is already demoralized watching the senate fail to pass legislation that 80% of Americans want. And let’s not forget the Pro Forma sessions keeping President Trump from making recess appointment. Get back to DC and work FOR us.
Let me get this straight.
In America, in 2026, a federal judge just ruled that the government is NOT ALLOWED to check whether the people voting in our elections are actually American citizens.
Let that sink in.
A foreign-born Biden-appointed judge, confirmed on a pure party-line vote, says verifying citizenship is illegal.
Every other country on earth checks. Colombia, a NARCO STATE requires ID to vote. We're told it's a violation of "rights."
How is this controversial? How is this even a DEBATE?
Your vote is being stolen in slow motion.
Pass the SAVE America Act.
@SenateGOP First priority should be the Save America Act. Also, stop the Pro Forma sessions that are blocking the President from making recess appointment. I thought we voted in America First senators, but you’re not working on the agenda we want.
There is literally *nothing* more important for the Senate to debate and ultimately pass right now than the SAVE America Act.
Everything else pales in comparison.
Share if you agree.
@JohnCornyn This is not a good look for a Senator representing Texans. This man has been working to get secure elections. Something a large majority of Americans support. We want you to do the same before you leave office.
@Armor_of_Gods@dandinohill I agree. I don’t understand how they’re going along with this. And why isn’t President Trump calling them out on it. It’s disgraceful how hard everyone fights against an agenda 77 million Americans voted for.
America250 was originally going to be ran by NGOs with an explicit, left-leaning agenda to promote global, multilateral “democracy,” as demonstrated by @SKDoubleDub33 . Then Trump rooted out most of that nonsense. I suspect what we’re seeing is a revenge tour by the original NGOs who are painting the current celebration as “partisan.”
If they can’t be in control, they have to destroy it for everyone else.
John Thune was fine with Barack Obama and Joe Biden making recess appointments, but he won't let President Trump do that. And he is blocking the SAVE Act. Thune is our enemy!
Who wants to see John Thune removed as Senate Majority Leader, then defeated in the 2028 GOP primary?
What are you talking about? At no time in the history of the US has senators blocked recess appointments of a president OF THE SAME PARTY. Ever.
The 'senators' can't even pass the SAVE Act. They can't pass a bill sitting on their desk to stop sending millions of dollars to the fucking Taliban. The 'republican' senators have alienated their voters and abandoned their voters, not the other way around.
TREASON 🚨
Trumps first year in office has seen the lowest amount of bills passed in modern American history
Trump- (38)
Biden- (122)
Obama- (125)
Bush - (109)
(77.3M) Americans voted for Trump, not John Thune... he cannot continue on as Majority leader
Remove John Thune
The E. Jean Carroll case against President Trump is one of the strangest civil cases in American history. The foundational problem is this: Carroll could not identify when the alleged incident occurred — not even the year with any precision.
That should have killed the case as dead as a skunk on the road right there.
Without a temporal anchor, no defendant — regardless of guilt or innocence — can mount an alibi defense. Trump, who has maintained detailed calendars and staff records for decades, was denied the most basic tool of self-defense: the ability to establish where he was. That is not a technicality. It is a due process violation at the constitutional level.
Then Carroll produced the one piece of physical evidence she claimed corroborated her account — the dress she wore during the alleged incident. It was subsequently established that the dress was designed after the incident could have occurred. The sole corroborating evidence falsified her timeline.
The case proceeded anyway.
The resulting verdict was then weaponized in a defamation suit — where Trump was held liable for denying the allegation, while being procedurally barred from defending against it, because it was already "proven" in another court, regardless how flawed the procedure was. He was punished, in effect, for asserting his own innocence.
Compounding everything: coordinated professional and physical threats so thoroughly intimidated the legal community that attorneys refused these cases regardless of available fees. When you systematically destroy a defendant's ability to retain counsel of choice, you forfeit the right to a legitimate verdict.
An allegation is not evidence. Process without substance is not law. And a verdict produced under these conditions carries no legitimate authority — whatever its formal status.
Not only is it the right move to investigate Carroll, but every other person involved as well. Trump is owed serious damages here, and there may be a few people who belong in prison for their roles in the case.
What this means is that the parliamentarian was never an obstacle to passing the Big Beautiful Bill. Just two months ago, Thune overrode that same parliamentarian on a different bill.
The parliamentarian is a mere scapegoat.
