Abolish public employee unions!

[Jesse Proudman @jesseproudman]

The unions backing Washington's income tax aren't donors. They're investors.

SEIU 775 put in $500K. The state employees union put in $1M. Nearly every dollar funding the No on 645 campaign comes from public sector unions who stand to collect your tax dollars.

They even printed a lie in the voters pamphlet.

If the polls were on their side, they wouldn't need to struggle so hard against the truth.

Vote YES on I-645.

[Jesse Proudman @jesseproudman]

I spent the time. I put my name and credibility on the line to write a factual, honest argument for the Yes side of the voters' pamphlet because that's what voters deserve.

The No side? Their rebuttal tells voters that future income tax changes would go to the ballot. That's a lie. A legislature can enact or expand an income tax with a floor vote and a governor's signature. No ballot required.

The Secretary of State's office: "We do not verify arguments for truth or fact."

So the pamphlet mailed to every registered voter in Washington will print whatever the union-funded No campaign wants to say. No fact-check. No accountability. Just continued trickery and deceit to ram through their unconstitutional law.

Vote yes to stop the tax.

Thank God @POTUS was elected and our country’s border no longer looks like this.

These images out of Spain are an unfortunate reminder of the consequences of mass migration and the radical left-wing globalist policies that have enabled the Invasion of the West.

@BillMelugin_: "Just look here, do you see any women or children? I mean most people would call these folks so-called asylum seekers. These are young guys just flooding into the country and overwhelming what if any border there is."

🚨 RINO ALERT

Belinda Keiser is suddenly claiming she’s MAGA?

She ran as a Democrat.

She donated to Hillary Clinton.

She donated to Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

Now she wants a seat in Congress from Florida.

FL - 22, do not get played.

This women who calls herself a journalist is actually an ignorant mouthpiece for “progressivism”. Elon makes her look like a complete fool when he speaks truth into her fabrications.

BREAKING: The identity of the man that berated the two teenage female Sophie Cunningham supporters at the Seattle Storm vs Indiana Fever game is Marco Esquivel.

Esquivel is a Nordstrom corporate employee in Seattle.

His LinkedIn is no longer active.

@Nordstrom, will you publicly condemn his actions?

Fauci's diary WASN'T leaked, stolen, or hacked. It wasn't even "private." @SecKennedy breaks down exactly how he uncovered it:

“If you do something on a government server, it belongs to the government. He was keeping a diary for the book that he intended to write about his life. And at the end of his term, just before he was leaving, he emailed the entire diary to himself...  And that's how we found it, through those emails.

It's not a diary in the sense, like you said, that a teenage girl keeps a diary that's private and has a lock on it. This is a government computer, a government laptop, on government time, keeping this account of what his official duties are and then making private observations about them.

The liberal media is now feigning indignation that we released private diaries and violated his privacy, but that's just a crazy assertion. What they're really doing is covering up this vast media malpractice that took place during COVID, when they elevated this guy to a deified status, who had funded the weaponization of coronavirus, who then had given it to a Chinese military-run lab.”

My colleague from South Dakota suggests here that the talking filibuster hasn’t been used in a century, and that it was not used to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

He’s mistaken.

As I’ve explained to the entire Senate GOP on multiple occasions, the talking filibuster *was* used effectively to break the weeks-long filibuster mounted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Leader Thune and others point out that the Senate ultimately invoked cloture on the Civil Rights Act, and on that basis wrongly conclude that the talking filibuster was *not* the tool used to achieve that victory.

This argument ignores the fact that this is *how* the Senate closed a staggering 30-vote cloture deficit in 1964. After many weeks of fighting a losing battle, filibustering senators predictably started to lose their resolve to hold up the bill indefinitely, especially when they realized how hard they’d have to work to keep the effort alive.

So they started proposing and supporting amendments to the bill to make it more palatable and help them save face.

I still maintain that this is a viable approach that could work well—even better—in the context of the SAVE America Act, especially considering that the bill is less complicated and less controversial with voters than was the Civil Rights Act, and currently has a cloture deficit of only 10 votes—tiny compared to the 30-vote deficit faced by the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

My colleague also mistakenly suggests that Senate Republicans would have to vote to enforce the talking filibuster. That simply isn’t true; no vote is required for this step. All we need is a majority leader willing to announce that we’re getting on the bill and that we will continue to debate it until it passes—all with the understanding that if filibustering senators fail to show up to debate it, we can “call the question” and pass it with a simple majority.

That understanding, in turn, is what motivates the filibustering senators to show up and speak, but it’s also what naturally causes them to tire of the exercise after a few weeks, at which point they start looking for a face-saving off-ramp.

Finally, Leader Thune suggests that the talking filibuster would be thwarted by being “reset” every time Democrats offered an amendment. There’s a valid point in there, but it’s not a good reason not to invoke the talking filibuster. It appears he’s referring indirectly to paragraph 1(a) of Senate Rule 19 (the two-speech rule). While offering a new amendment can create a new question under longstanding practice, the September 25, 1986 precedent narrowed how rigidly the two-speech rule is applied by clarifying that many procedural actions do not count as speeches at all.

Particularly in light of that 1986 clarification, it’s been a long time since I’ve suggested we consider rigid enforcement of Rule 19’s two-speech limit as part of a talking filibuster strategy for the SAVE America Act. We don’t need it!

Nor was that rule aggressively enforced during the Senate’s consideration of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Majority Leader Mike Mansfield correctly focused on requiring actual debate from filibustering senators rather than looking for technical ways to shut the debate down.

To give credit where it’s due, I appreciate what Leader Thune said in this interview about the possibility of passing some iteration of SAVE America using budget reconciliation—a procedure in which there is no 60-vote cloture hurdle. I’ve been skeptical of this approach in the past, but I’m starting to believe the SAVE America Act has more budgetary features than I initially considered possible.

That said, reconciliation is fraught with all kinds of problems, challenges, risks, and uncertainties. Also, failure can be far too easy to blame on the parliamentarian.

I’m open to considering the reconciliation path, but we should make this decision with our eyes open. To do that, we need to separate fact from fiction when it comes to the talking filibuster.

In the last decade, Americans have witnessed a concerted effort to rewrite our history and force a factually baseless ideology that discredits American heroes.

The Report shows Smithsonian leadership shifted the mission from celebrating our shared heritage to extreme political activism rooted in Marxism, dividing and discouraging Americans.

President Trump is reestablishing confidence in the Smithsonian and ensuring our heritage is celebrated. 🇺🇸

A prediction for the future of America:
Thanks to Joe Biden and his regime, there is a new generation of Patriots growing up this very minute that are ON FIRE for America, and the 2020-2024 Biden reign of tyranny was the catalyst.

These young people remember being masked, missing school, being separated from their friends, sitting sequestered in their bedrooms for months on end trying to do their schoolwork through an iPad.

They vividly remember being quarantined, prodded and swabbed, while their parents paced back and forth across the kitchen floor trying to figure out how to survive their loss of income.

They remember not being allowed to go to church, while riding in the back seat of the car seeing liquor stores with big, bright "OPEN" signs in the front doors.

They remember their parents having to choose between taking an experimental, government mandated shot, or losing their jobs.

They remember pressing their tiny hands against a window to their grandparents' hands, and making homemade signs that said "I love you Grandma, I love you Grandpa" as they stood in the front yard...where they used to sit in their laps.

They remember not being able to attend funerals and say their last goodbyes, or get dressed up to celebrate with the family when their older brothers and sisters got married.

They remember sitting in waiting rooms just steps away from friends and family dying in solitary confinement in hospitals because the government wouldn't allow them in the room to share one last hug.

The pain, agony and abuse of that era left deep, resentful scars on their hearts and souls that will never be forgotten...or forgiven.

It forever turned them away from anyone, or anything promoting the dogmas of tyranny, and made them ferociously and unwaveringly loyal to the foundational promises and guarantees of Freedom, as written down long ago by our Founding Fathers.

There's a fresh new generation of Patriots currently in junior high, high school, and college that will NEVER bend the knee to the will of tyranny ever again. Mark this post. They will be the heroes for Freedom in the near future. Believe it🇺🇸

Here’s our message from the American people:

If the Senate votes to take a 37-day vacation — without passing the SAVE America Act —

we are more than happy to give you a permanent vacation from the Senate.

Peacefully.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

Senators who have agreed to force a vote & remain in DC until the SAVE America Act is passed:

✅ Senator Mike Lee
✅ Senator Rick Scott

[Terry L Pisel @PosolePisel]

I’m fully onboard!

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

I’m asking every donor with big pockets & influence to publicly issue a statement

that you will help to primary incumbent Republican Senators up for election in 2028

if the SAVE America Act is not passed.

Put the peaceful fear of God into the Senate.

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

After tonight, it’s even clearer that the Senate should take the SAVE America Act and continue debating it until it passes

Repost if you agree

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

Full stop.
