Filthy Despicable RINO Coward John Cornyn: On Second Thought, Now that GOP Voters Are Set to Boot My Defeat-Mechanism Ass Out of My Cushy Job, Maybe We Don’t Need the Filibuster After All
—Disinformation Expert Ace
All it took to make this filthy RINO represent his constituents was a multimillion dollar effort to boot him out of office.
As you know, the disgraceful cucks in the Senate desperately want their cuck ally John Cornyn to keep his seat. They are pressuring Trump to endorse Cornyn.
Cornyn’s primary challenger Ken Paxton says he will not leave the race, even if Trump does bend to John Thune and endorse the cuck John Cornyn.
However, he has offered a deal: He will leave the race and let Cornyn accept his last coronation if and only if the SAVE Act is passed before the primary runoff.
Not scheduled for a vote — passed and put on the president’s desk for his signature.
And suddenly this liberal dirtbag says he finally understands that Nostalgia RINOism won’t stop the Democrats from undoing the filibuster themselves the next chance they get.
Something we’ve been saying for a decade.
If a man takes a swing at you and barely misses, that doesn’t make him a pacifist — it just means he has bad aim.Standing still and giving him a second free swing wouldn’t be wise or honorable; it would be foolish.
In 2022, Chuck Schumer and 47 other Senate Democrats tried to change the rules of the US Senate and “nuke” the filibuster to ram through a left-wing takeover of election laws.
They were just barely stopped by two holdout Democrats who were promptly driven out of their party and into retirement.
In 2024, Schumer confirmed to reporters that Democrats mean to finish the job and kill thevote threshold the next time they take the majority.
For many years, I believed that if the US Senate scrapped the filibuster, Texas and our nation would stand to lose more than we would gain.
My fellow conservatives and I have proudly used the 60-vote threshold to protect the country from all sorts of bad ideas and dangerous policies.
But when the reality on the ground changes, leaders must take stock and adapt.
Today, Democrats are weaponizing the Senate’s rules to block the SAVE America Act, defund the Department of Homeland Security and hurt the American people — all to spite President Donald Trump.
But they say openly that if these same rules ever get in Democrats’ way, they won’t hesitate to rip them up.
A rule is only a rule if both sides follow it.
filibuster’s 60-I believe that Democrats, with their votes and statements, have already dealt the filibuster a fatal blow: The Senate rules will change eventually, whether Republicans like it or not.
This leaves conservatives with two options.
We can either unilaterally disarm, or we can stand and fight.
We can let the Democrats keep obstructing today and then smash the rules the first chance they get, or we can act now and use the mandate the American people gave this president and this Congress to secure our elections, protect our homeland and bring back common sense.
The answer is clear: We need to stand, fight and win.
Democrats started this fight. Now Republicans should finish it.
When 48 Democrats nearly killed the filibuster, it was to pass radical legislation designed to increase election fraud.
They tried to ban voter ID requirements, to decriminalize ballot harvesting, and even to send taxpayer dollars into Democrats’ own campaign funds.
The SAVE America Act, which I’ve cosponsored, would do the opposite.
It would make it easy to vote but harder to cheat, by requiring proof of citizenship and voter ID.
He also realizes that it’s time to end the Democrat filibuster on funding DHS unilaterally:
But it’s also urgent to overcome other aspects of the far left’s obstruction.Americans are being forced to wait in line for three hours at airport security checkpoints because the Democrats are blocking funding for homeland security and immigration law enforcement.
Bad enough that Democrats’ political tantrum is ruining travelers’ days — but at this time of hostilities with Iran, their financial siege of DHS is not just inconvenient, it’s dangerous.
