good, glad to hear this - Thune was supposedly hemming and hawing over this bill, which is enormously popular with Americans across the board.

Interesting. I have always thought that a vote wasn't brought to the floor unless it would pass. At least that's what Nan did.

From what I heard on tv, there is a lot of other things attached to this that may hold up passage. Can it be passed as a "clean" bill without other things included?

So Thune is going to "force" the vote in a manner that's guaranteed to fail?  He's not stupid, but he thinks we are!  Do a standup Filibuster and make the Democrats read phonebooks!

"Senate Leader John Thune says he will FORCE a vote on the SAVE America Act, but he can NOT guarantee it will pass because that needs 60 votes"

All for show and completely meaningless.
He knows the vote will fail. From his viewpoint, that's the reason for having it.

Once more, I'll repeat for all time:
The ONLY WAY the SAVE Act will be passed is if the Republican Senators nuke the filibuster.
NO other option is possible.

Might as well take the SAVE Act and toss it into the trash.
In the hands of the current Republican "leadership", it's not worth the paper it's printed on.

And again....


Jettisonvthe 60 filibuster vote threshold, and here are a few future political headlines to ponder....


July 2, 2029

Senate passes 51-49 for POTUS Shapiro's sweeping phasing and eventual ban of hydrocarbon use except for specific governmental approved applications.

August 16, 2030

VPOTUS Whitmer breaks 50-50 tie implementing POTUS Shapiro's legal immigration changes.  All residents showing proof of 5 years of residency will be granted retroactive citizenship

Don't do something we might regret in the future.  It's a last line of defense when we aren't in power.

And if this is the 80/20 issue that polls indicate then brand in on their ass, along with DHS funding which by itself is a time bomb.

Hold the vote, so we know who to primary out.

Someone. needs to remind POTUS that without the fillibuster rules (guidelines) that are presently in place, he'd had one less SCOTUS pick last term, and we would be discussing Associate Justice Merrick Garland.

Also, minus the filbuster, as is.....  are these future political headlines?

July 2, 2029

Senate passes 51-49 for POTUS Shapiro's sweeping phasing and eventual ban of hydrocarbon use except for specific governmental approved applications.

August 16, 2030

VPOTUS Whitmer breaks 50-50 tie implementing POTUS Shapiro's legal immigration changes.  All residents showing proof of 5 years of residency will be granted retroactive citizenship

Do we really want to lose a last line of defense, as the pendulum swings back left in the future?

And what wouldn't stop the dims in power in the 2030's to legislate confiscation of all IRA and 401-k funds for a National Social Security system.  And pass it by razor thin margins?

Dims have previously discussed this.

And to those who might counter its legality.......   How many wealth confiscation (not income) initiatives have been legislated lately?  Or are planned??

I hope I don't have to say later...  "I told you so"
