Look how tired and relieved he is all at the same time. Doesn't have to dance around who the qb is 😎

John Thune seems confused about why he isn't liked in "online world."
He says being hated is a "daily experience" for him.
He said, "I don't know that they necessarily told me anything I got wrong."
Ok, I'll start.....
1) Oct. 8, 2016: he said Trump "should withdraw and Mike Pence should be our nominee effective immediately."
2) Dec. 2020: he said a challenge to the Electoral College would "go down like a shot dog."
3) 2022: he said he hoped Republicans would have "other options" besides Trump.
4) 2023: he endorsed Tim Scott, and didn't back Trump until Feb. 2024.
5) He voted for the $95 billion Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan aid package.
6) He requested $116 million in earmarks while voting to strip earmarks.
7) He used pro forma sessions to block recess appointments.
8) He refused Trump's call to end blue slips.
9) The House passed the SAVE Act. It died in the Senate 48-50, and a narrower voter ID bill died too.
10) He refused to nuke the filibuster or force a talking filibuster.
11) He waved off the SAVE Act pressure as a "paid influencer ecosystem."
12) When McConnell vanished for 3 months, Thune said it was "between Sen. McConnell and the people of Kentucky."
13) About 161 Trump nominations are still waiting, including 25 judges, and Democrats take over in January.
14) And he still feels no sense of urgency, and no realization of his own failures.
What did I leave off the list?
I pretty sure not everyone does yet...this election will not be certified.
Don't know how it all works from there but I think paper ballots and passports are definitely involved..

KOC must be relieved that he finally has an adult in the room again.

They walked through hell so we could live free. I live to remember and honor America’s greatest warriors. Godbless them all!

Vikings fans aren't sad, they're angry.
Since Kirk's Achilles, the team has changed quarterbacks 18 times. Insane.
They let Kirk walk.
They let Darnold walk.
They let pre-Achilles Jones walk.
They traded JJ McCarthy for nothing.
Their anger is appropriate.
Great choice 👌
BREAKING: Prominent Twin Cities attorney Chris Madel has been retained to represent journalist James O'Keefe.
O'Keefe is facing felony charges of identity theft and unlawful voting in Hennepin County in connection to a viral video he filmed in August.
"James O’Keefe is innocent. These charges are Mary Moriarty's disgraceful attempt to turn her warped politics into a criminal conviction, and we will not be intimidated by the seriousness of the accusations or the politics surrounding them. The evidence will ultimately and completely exonerate James," Madel said.
