You have been a great disappointment on this issue, mate. :casty:
Buckley Carlson is who retweeted it, mate.

I was led to his X account by another post here on TD. I dont believe it was staged, but enjoy a good conspiracy theory as much as the next lad.

I even named the thread "3 times Trump voter" because I know thats become its own meme and I were hoping to make you lot chuckle.
This makes sense to me... we can learn together

quote:

While the planning and perimeter security in Butler were widely condemned as incompetent, Trump viewed Curran’s individual response—physically shielding him the moment shots were fired—as a definitive act of bravery.

The "Human Shield" Effect: Trump specifically cited that Curran "proved his fearless courage when he risked his own life to help save mine" in his official appointment statement.

Trust Factor: Having led Trump’s personal detail for years, Curran was a known entity. Trump prioritized a director he trusted personally over an "outsider" or a career bureaucrat from the agency's headquarters.


quote:

I do the same thing... $50 Starbucks cards to family and friends. I never cared about a response but this year I'll call and make sure they got it because I don't trust the post office. They make too many mistakes these days. What has changed? Not sure, but when I was young 90% of the employees I encountered were male. Now it's 90% female.


Maybe text the card this time?
It is weird to me that Trump made this goofy chuckle frick the head of his SS after the incompetent Keystone Cops display they put on thst day.

I dont know what to believe.

Wall St Apes should never be used here again.

She was a 3x Trump voter and wore the ear patch at the convention, mate

Thats Buckley Sr, not Young Buck who was employed by JDV
I did some more research and I now understand why they are stuck. I thought the nuclear option had been used multiple times before (and it has, but only on nominees and appointments). This would be a first to use it on a bill.



quote:

The "SAVE Act" Conflict

The reason John Thune and other Senate Republicans are hesitant to go nuclear right now is that the precedents above only apply to nominations. * The Legislative Filibuster: This still requires 60 votes for any law to pass.

Trump's "Talking Filibuster" Push: As of March/April 2026, Trump has been pressuring the Senate to switch to a "Talking Filibuster." This would force Democrats to physically stand and speak on the floor to block the SAVE Act, eventually allowing a simple majority vote once they stop talking.

The Risk: Most Senate veterans fear that if they "kill the filibuster" for the SAVE Act today, Democrats will use that same simple-majority power to pass things like Green New Deal legislation or tax hikes the moment they regain the majority.


Dude hasnt lifted a finger to get SAVE act passed to prevent another 2020 stolen election

Imagine downvoting SFP 100 to 0 on a post where he is demonstrably correct
Cornyn might be the better choice to beat Talarico

I could be wrong about that, but one thing Im sure of is that this will be the toughest election in Texas since Bush / Richardson

We do NOT need a lying shitlib like Talarico from Texas. That would be the worst thing thats happened to our party since Biden in 2020

The turns have truly tabled

If the goal is to make amends for the Jesus AI image controversy, the most direct causal argument would be to quote the Gospels (the New Testament). By avoiding them, he effectively sidesteps the figure he allegedly "disrespected" in the Truth Social post.

It is incongruous - how can you try to make amends with your Christian-heavy base by reading Jewish text and ignoring the Christian gospel?
