Aspiring GOP Leader Sen. John Thune Backs Cartel Bill Bailout for Discredited Fake News Media
Breitbart ^ | 08/24/2022 | ALLUM BOKHARI

Posted on 08/24/2022 1:51:30 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. John Thune (R-SD), the Senate GOP whip and a likely contender in any future battle to replace Mitch McConnell as GOP leader, is backing a bill that is effectively a bailout for the discredited corporate media.

The bill is called the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA), and has been extensively covered by Breitbart News in the past.

It is unclear if Thune notified his GOP colleagues before he decided to co-sponsor the controversial Democrat-pushed bill. His office did not answer that question.

Thune is an idiot, and as deep state as they come. A fool. Buffoon.

So of course, China Mitch grooms him to take over.

The Senate needs a giant flush.

He’s tolerable (barely) as a member of the caucus.

As leader!!!????

He’s as bad as the Turtle himself.

These spineless POS bastards have squandered any advantage we had in gaining tons of seats in the Congress. Now that advantage is almost completely disintegrated. It is very discouraging to have spineless leaders instead of courageous ones taking us all the way to victory. But America is hanging by a thin thread if we don’t go out in droves and vote for our unfortunately spineless weasels we will lose this country. They are comfortable being in the minority and letting the evil communist demonic rats destroy what little is left of this nation. I hate the GOP! Read below

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict In May, @CookPolitical's House outlook was a GOP gain of 20-35 seats. Based on recent developments, we've revised our outlook to a 10-20 seat GOP gain, w/ Dems maintaining control not out of the question.
