Say what you want about Cousin Eddie, but at that entire Christmas dinner table, he was the ONLY one who had the respect to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.
Cousin Eddie was a real American patriot before it was cool.

Thirty-one Republican senators voted NOT to delay crowning John Thune today. Only 15 even wanted to sit down and talk about what went wrong.
That's the whole problem with this party in one vote count.

I’m not donating a penny to the GOP until @LeaderJohnThune is removed.
You should do the same or nothing will change.
John Thune would have been fired in the private sector.
In the Senate, he was rewarded.
This is the problem.
The GOP Senate just pissed on the American people by keeping @LeaderJohnThune as GOP leader.
They hate us.
🚨 JUST IN: Senate Republicans just passed a resolution promising to use every one of their last 54 days.
The "sense of the conference" vows to confirm every judicial and executive nominee the conference approves and do "everything humanly possible to pass a reconciliation bill before Jan. 3." The Senate is now expected to stay in town instead of leaving for Veterans Day.
Words are cheap. Votes count. We're watching.

Ron Johnson didn't vote for Thune. Respect.
🚨 JOHN THUNE IS A COWARD: Asked why he wanted the job again with so many people angry at him, Thune said, "I love the fight."
Then he told Bret to "Stay off social media."
He "loves the fight" but wouldn't force one on VOTER ID. Wouldn't force one on the SAVE America Act. Wouldn't codify a single DOGE cut.
A man who loves the fight doesn't run from every one of them.
That's not a leader. That's a COWARD.

🚨 WATCH THUNE ON THIS ONE: Asked if he'd deliver Republican votes for an immigration deal with the Democrats, John Thune wouldn't rule it out.
"It would depend."
He admits the Senate blew this up THREE times before, and "the wheels came off" every time.
President Trump SECURED the border. He's also said NO amnesty.
Thune can't pass voter ID, but somehow he's open to a deal with Schumer? Watch him closely.

Eight transgender Democrats were elected in the midterms… 8.
If you needed another example of just how out of touch Democratic voters have become, there it is.
🚨 THUNE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW: Told that roughly 700 House-passed bills are sitting in the Senate, the Senate Republican Leader had no idea.
"I don't know the answer to that. Is it? It could be."
That's his JOB. Count the bills. Move the bills.
Then came the excuse: "You love to send stuff to the Senate and blame the Senate."
Yeah, John. Because that's where it all goes to die.

🚨 SPARE US, JOHN: President Trump told the Senate to vote on ALL pending legislation, including the judges.
Thune's calendar had them OUT 31 days and in session just 21.
NOW he promises to "extend the calendar" and finally move judges and nominations.
Two years of "we don't have the votes." One brutal election. And suddenly he's ready to work?
Nobody believes you, John. Your record already told us who you are.

🚨 THUNE TRUSTS THE DEMOCRATS: Asked if Democrats will gut the filibuster once they take over, John Thune said this:
"I've had conversations with Democrats that say we are not going there."
He wouldn't use the power when Republicans had it.
Now he's counting on Democrats to keep their word.
Republicans got nothing. Democrats get the Senate. And Thune gets a pinky promise.

🚨 THUNE SURRENDERS IN ADVANCE: Asked why he didn't force a talking filibuster fight on the SAVE America Act, John Thune said this:
"I don't know how we force that fight on the floor."
He had 53 votes for VOTER ID. He wouldn't even try.
And now he's praising the filibuster for protecting the minority, "which we are now going to appreciate, because we will be that minority."
He's already comfortable LOSING. That's the problem!

🚨 THE "I CAN'T" LEADER: Asked about the SAVE America Act, which President Trump and millions of voters wanted, John Thune gave the same old excuse.
"We are bound by arithmetic in the United States Senate."
The base asked for a fight. Thune handed them a math lesson.
Even Fox's own column called his "I can't do anything" approach to leadership DAMAGING to the GOP.
Leaders find a way. Spineless John Thune finds an excuse.

🚨THE COWARD HAS ZERO SELF-AWARENESS: Asked what senators told him he got wrong, John Thune said this:
"I don't know they told me anything I got wrong."
Back in 2025, he promised Americans would FEEL the relief and predicted "a remarkable 2026."
They didn't feel it. Republicans got wiped out. And Thune still can't name a single mistake.
That's exactly why he shouldn't be leading anything.

🚨 THUNE SAYS THE QUIET PART: Asked about voters being REALLY angry at him, John Thune shrugged it off.
"This is kind of a daily experience for me."
His excuse for getting nothing done? The Senate is "a tough place to do business" and the founders made it "hard to get things done."
That's not leadership. That's a resignation letter the spineless coward forgot to sign.

🚨 FAILING UPWARD: John Thune just got reelected Senate Republican Leader after admitting the midterms were "a drubbing" with "no way to sugarcoat it."
His big lesson? Voters care about the COST OF LIVING.
Groundbreaking. Every family in America could have told him that a year ago.
Under Thune, the SAVE America Act never passed. The DOGE cuts never got codified.
Seven senators wanted to delay the vote. He kept his job anyway.
Same leader. Same failures. The base deserves FIGHTERS.
