Nov. 10, 2020 Thune Statement on Reelection as Republican Whip Sen. John Thune
Nov. 10, 2020 Tweet - "Even Dems themselves are acknowledging the election was a rejection of the radical left agenda.

Oct. 26, 2020 South Dakota War College - US Senator John Thune's Weekly Column: Character Matters Sen. John Thune
Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "Democrats' attempted delay antics over the last seven-plus days were absurd. After they voted to block COVID relief multiple times & tried to adjourn the Senate entirely, Dems suddenly brought up a completely unrealistic "relief" bill to delay the #SCOTUS vote. Pure theatrics." Sen. John Thune
Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "Confirmed Since the day she was nominated, Judge Barrett has shown extraordinary intelligence & command of the law. On top of that, she knows that the role of a judge is to be an impartial interpreter of the law -- not a policymaker. Congrats, soon-to-be Justice Barrett." Sen. John Thune
Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "One of the main reasons many Republicans ran for the Senate was to be in a position to restore the Supreme Court to its original constitutional purpose as a judicial body, not a legislative one. We ran for this. We were elected for this. Today, we will follow through." Sen. John Thune
Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "Judge Barrett's intelligence, knowledge, and judicial temperament have been on display since day one of her confirmation processes.

Oct. 26, 2020 Tweet - "Democrats spent this weekend trying to delay the #SCOTUS vote --unsuccessfully, I might add, and with no dispute over Judge Amy Coney Barrett's obvious qualifications. The Senate will perform its constitutional duty today & Democrats can't stop that." Sen. John Thune
Oct. 25, 2020 Thune Joins Fox News's "Cavuto LIVE' to Discuss Judge Amy Coney Barrett and COVID-19 Relief Negotiations Sen. John Thune
Oct. 24, 2020 Tweet - "Since Judge Barrett's qualifications are beyond reproach, many on the left have instead turned to distortions & distractions. Americans won't be fooled & have seen through these tactics. It's no surprise that a majority of Americans support her confirmation." Sen. John Thune
Oct. 24, 2020 Tweet - "Senate Republicans are working over the weekend to ensure that Democrat shenanigans don't slow down Amy Coney Barrett's confirmation. It's a shame to see how Democrats have politicized the judicial confirmation process over the last 30-plus years." Sen. John Thune
Oct. 22, 2020 Tweet - "Our Intelligence Community has again caught Russia -- and now Iran -- seeking to interfere with our election, spread misinformation, & sow doubt in the integrity of your votes. These "desperate attempts by desperate adversaries" will not succeed." Sen. John Thune
