Hello Senator Thune, Let's expose what you're really doing with "reconciliation." You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process. Here's how we know: Reconciliation requires the Senate parliamentarian to rule that provisions are "budgetary." Citizenship verification is not budgetary. Photo ID mandates are not budgetary. The parliamentarian will gut the bill. Then you'll shrug and say "we tried." We see through you. Meanwhile, you WON'T use the tools that actually work: Rule XIX limits each senator to two speeches per legislative day. Keep the Senate in continuous session, file cloture daily, and the filibuster exhausts in ~12-20 days. You dismissed it as "complicated." Because if you tried and succeeded, you'd have to actually pass the bill. Harry Reid nuked the filibuster in 2013 when he wanted results. Mitch McConnell changed Senate rules THREE times and canceled the August recess. Chuck Schumer used reconciliation within months on a 50-50 Senate. You have 53 seats. You've changed nothing, canceled nothing, and waited eleven months. Now let's talk donors: • Goldman Sachs: $150K to you - top H-1B user • Google: $75K - lobbies against E-Verify • Meta: $72.5K - Zuckerberg's FWD[.]us pushes mass immigration • Wells Fargo: $90K - banks undocumented immigrants Same corporations sponsor Punchbowl News, where you sit for "Fly Out Days" which nobody watches except Congress staffers and K Street lobbyists who pays premium bucks for legislative intelligence. Their reporter then telegraphs to the audience the SAVE Act "will ultimately fail." Corporate money flows to you AND to the outlet that frames your inaction as inevitable. We see the loop. You called grassroots anger a "paid influencer ecosystem." YOU are the paid influencer. You take the wrong side of a 80% issue because you are indistinguishable from a K Street mouthpiece, and an ineffective one to boot who won't bend the rules to get anything passed. What we want: 1. Force a real talking filibuster. 2. Stop hiding behind process. 3. Pass the SAVE America Act. YOU will become the reason that we will have our butts kicked in midterms. Not Candace Owens, not Nick Fuentes, not anyone else. You and you alone, and all because you want to make the 200 or so viewers of Punchbowl Fly Out Days happy. You're living in a K Street information bubble, addicted to the comforts and praises of lobbyists masquerading as journalists. You mistake the steak and martini dinners you get invited to as your own constituents. You are not "moderate." The SAVE America Act has 98% support among Republicans. Name one other thing that has 98% support. You are an extreme minority who prides himself on being a calm leader, when in reality you are well in the running for the most ineffective Majority leader of all time. Prove me wrong. Do the bare modicum of effort. Not symbolic. Actual effort. Cancel the recess. Get SAVE America Act passed.

Hello Mr. Olbermann, This is going to be a different "Hello" than usual. I cannot bring myself to do a snarky post, not when you have revealed yourself to have so much hatred in your heart. Let me try and explain to you in a way that you can accept this, if there is any room in your heart for openness. I accepted Jesus Christ right before COVID-19 happened. I was a workaholic in Big Tech, a politically correct industry. And I knew enough about Christianity to know that its Great Commission would come to a head with my identity as a software executive pretty quickly. I had a dream -- which I've described elsewhere -- which cemented my decision to evangelize no matter the cost. By 2020, we were getting fired everywhere -- not for, but for basic things such as accidentally making an OK sign or misgendering someone. We had to stop attending churches in the name of spreading COVID-19. We had to live in fear and terror for years as the country spiraled into riots, censorship, and repression, which culminated in 2022 when the President of the United States told the nation that Trump supporters were the biggest threat to the Republic. Thankfully, the Republicans flipped the House a couple of months later and this was all stopped. But the memory is still seared in our minds. We know the darkness that is lurking in the hearts of our fellow countrymen, even as we love them. Simply put: we think you will snitch on us and jail us on a dime because you already have proven ourselves now. The 2024 election gave us a bit of reprieve, hope that our country had gone back to what it was supposed to be: everyone peacefully co-existing. But ... here's what you don't grasp. Charlie Kirk was our lamb. He built an entire career on talking to college students, peacefully. On preventing nonviolence. And on engaging others in constructive dialogue. For that, he got the most gruesome death possible. And we watched masses of Democrats dance gleefully on his grave. And the media gaslight us into thinking that it's our fault somehow that he died. In short, pulling all the same tricks we saw which oppressed us in 2020. He was the best of us. What does that say about the rest of us? Our Takeaway: You Want Us To Die. At some point, we have to draw a line. We aren't cancelling you for the same arbitrary reasons you cancelled us in 2020. We are cancelling you because if we don't, then you actually will kill us, and the country is going into civil war. In short, we are cancelling you to save you. You will hate my words. I know that. But I am speaking the truth. Please repent and come to accept the grace of Jesus Christ. Please stop hating us.
