Understand what Thune is doing right now. It’s not enough for him to kill the SAVE America Act. Thune has to kill it while also protecting his worst RINO colleagues from being
exposed for opposing it.
How does Thune accomplish his? By avoiding a simple majority vote at all costs. Thune knows a public vote where Republicans get less than 50 votes—with people like Tillis and Curtis and McConnell and Murkowski voting against IT—is electoral poison. He doesn’t want it to pass, but he also can’t have it die at the hands of his own puke colleagues.
So how does Thune do this? By refusing to move to the already-passed House bill (this only requires a simple majority because the House message is privileged) and instead moving to a new, standalone Senate bill. A new Senate bill is not privileged, and therefore the motion to proceed to it is debatable, meaning it requires 60 votes.
Thune needs to kill the SAVE America Act, not expose any of his GOP colleagues as being against it, and be able to pretend that he tried. This is the actual Senate GOP trifecta—doing nothing while pretending they tried everything and protecting the worst of the worst the whole time.
So when you watch the GOP Senate bring up a brand new SAVE America Act bill and hold a single vote on a motion that needs 60 to pass, know that they’re doing it because they think you’re stupid.

There’s really not a huge advantage to having the opponents call sheet.
The plays they run, the situations they run them in, the variations, etc. it’s all on film, documented and translated into the language of your own team.
Having it in their language is only beneficial if you can clearly hear the QB calling the play in their huddle from behind the line of scrimmage, which is very rare. (during Covid it was a lot easier)
Signals, code words and tendencies, are much more important and beneficial. And those are also all tracked, documented, analyzed, presented, etc.
And finally, at the end of the day, there remains the age old phrase…
“Go ahead and tell ‘em what we’re running. They still have to stop it.”

Your time is up. You were a shitty lawyer. You sucked as a judge. You’ve always been on the wrong side as a politician. You are so caught up in the Washington DC bubble that you’ve become tone deaf to what is happening in Texas. Texas sir. Our Texas. You are no longer part of it. You’ve become nothing but a disconnected DC powder puff. For you to call anyone a coward is a total joke. Just. Quit. Now.
