He's not wrong when he blames Thune and says he would have got his arse kicked if he was on the ballot.

Met Troy outside the Cinco Ranch library. From the Nehls Newsflash email 11/6/26:

quote:

The challenges facing our country remain serious. Securing the border, restoring law and order, lowering costs for working families, and putting America First requires constant focus and persistence.

Even as the work continues, the progress achieved under President Donald J. Trump is clear.

At the border, illegal alien crossings have fallen to historic lows, border wall construction has resumed, and immigration enforcement has been strengthened. The Trump Administration is working to remove criminal illegal aliens and dismantle the cartels that have inflicted so much damage on our communities. These efforts restore American sovereignty and protect the people we serve.

Public safety remains a priority. As a former sheriff and law enforcement officer, I know that protecting our communities starts with supporting the men and women who wear the badge. Crime plummeted in 2025 compared to 2024 and the lawlessness Americans witnessed during the Biden Administration. Our law enforcement officers are being backed instead of second-guessed. Cities that had descended into disorder are seeing real improvements because the federal government is no longer apologizing for enforcing the law.

On the economy, the Working Families Tax Cuts, which I proudly supported and President Trump signed into law on July 4, 2025, provided deductions for qualified tips and overtime pay, along with an additional deduction for eligible seniors. These policies help hardworking Americans keep more of what they earn.

These accomplishments matter, and our work is far from over. Through the remainder of my term, I will keep fighting alongside President Trump; we will finish strong and keep fighting the good fight.

I also want to congratulate Congressman-elect Trever Nehls on his election to represent Texas’ 22nd Congressional District. My office remains committed to serving you through the end of my term and helping ensure a smooth transition.

Serving the people of this district is an honor, and there is still work to do. God bless Texas, and God bless the United States of America.

Damn, a guy with our interests and the purpose of government in mind is a nice change from his colleague posers who just want network camera time to tell us how great they are as individuals.

only if you consider abject common sense to not be important in the world of 'properly worded bullshitt' you rely on.

your lawyer talk is ok in a courtroom or in a contract, but is nothing more than begging for attention in a commons sense discussion.

don't know how you are in. a courtroom, but you add very little to a practical discussion other than wasting space on the board.

The only people upset with the Senate not doing enough voted for the GOP.

Clearly that wasn't enough to win, and the moderates who swung the election did not give a single frick about it.

Crap like that doesn't inspire getting out the vote. The dem alternative will be a disaster.

John Thune is obviously compromised. I would love to know what dirt they have on him.
