WASHINGTON — U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) today delivered the following remarks on the Senate floor.
Tax cuts for the wealthy, cuts for everyone else.
Republicans HATE Big Bird and Elmo.
They also seem to hate American influence abroad.
Not sure what the MAGA clowns stand for?
Nope. You didn’t listen did you? Dems don’t listen to what they don’t want to hear. One tenth of one percent! He gave examples of just some of the waste. Trying listening to the facts.
It would be funny if it weren’t so sad that the Senator rails against certain federal spending he (Thune) has previously voted to approve in last year’s budget resolution. In truth, the cuts target global health (i.e. vaccines), disaster assistance esp food aid for areas impacted by famine, and public broadcasting. Thune also complains about deficit spending two weeks after he pushed the bill through that blew another bill hole in the federal debt and deficit. By the way, South Dakotans like public broadcasting and realize it serves needs especially in rural parts of the state.
DOGE has spent millions of dollars supposedly supposedly getting rid of waste fraud and abuse.
These republicans found:
Not one person to accuse of fraud
Not one person to accuse of wast
Not one person to accuse of abuse.
Right wing rhetoric with no basis. Just an invertebrate Trumper sex unknown
Five trillion dollars added to the ceiling of our already bloated national debt. Currently $36.1 trillion, headed to $40+ trillion in a few short years. Interest on that debt already equals total spending on national defense, and as it approaches $40 trillion it will become the single largest piece of all federal budget expenditures.
What a wonderful gift for your kids and grandkids to eventually grapple with, Senator Thune. All done to ensure that your wealthy donors will continue paying a lower tax rate on their majestically massive incomes than their secretaries pay on their much more modest incomes. Well done sir!
Fiscally irresponsible as always.
A true role model for the children.
Sitting on 16 million in a war chest of political donations seems like a waste…
