Thune has been talking to McConnell. He wants to assist his Dem buddies to shift blame back to Trump.

Well, first things first, you have to have a rational thought and judging by your post you haven’t had one in years!

We knew Thunes tendency to go “wobbly” long ago. Time for a government shut down. What’s he afraid of if it does shut down? Efficiency? Independence?

He is giving Schmukie an out. As always the Republicans bring marshmallows to a gun fight. The rats were in a corner.

I appreciate your words of advice.
They have found a place in my heart.
Now getting back to the calamity at hand, you are aware that you can pay extra in taxes. Let’s start a movement to pay extra to root out fraud and give them more!
We have to stop doubting our betters and take away their financial concerns.
Have you talked to your grandkids about their fare share?

"Thune goes wobbly"

Nothing new there. Senate Repukes are gutless wonders.

The Dems want an end to Doge in the bill. Not happening. 8 or 9 Democrats will vote for the CR as is. Govt will remain open.

No. The tax cuts need to come first

(see? We can’t even agree on Free Republic on the priorities)

I’ve wondered how long it would be before Thune wet his pants and caved in to the RATS. Not long at all.

This is akin to the repeating cycle of weak US and Isreal leadership kowtowing to the UN with the Pali/Hamas/Hezbolla tactics to cry uncle when getting obliterated, calling a cease fire to regroup.

The dems have learned from their new best friends. Thune’s obviously leaned nothing, ever. Or he’s in on it with chuck with a pre-determined agreed upon outcome.

"Trillions of waste MUST be fully funded so that they (Dems & Trump & Co) can find a better way to reclassify the fraud."


Looks like another TDSer has come out of the woodwork....
