Tweet - "Very mature. America is battling a global pandemic and mourning the loss of a Supreme Court justice, but Chuck Schumer is determined to prevent committees from meeting on important topics like election security. #TemperTantrum"
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Some Democrats have gone as far as to say that "nothing is off the table" when it comes to retribution for having a Senate vote on the president's nominee -- a grade school-style threat with constitutional consequences."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 22, 2020
Tweet - "Unbelievable. The Senate Intelligence Committee was supposed to have a hearing on election security today. The Democratic leader objected & blocked the meeting from happening. Mark "election security" down as the first target of Democrats' SCOTUS retribution."

Tweet - "When Dems say "nothing is off the table" if they regain the majority, they mean: -Scrapping protections for the Senate minority put in place by founders -Increasing number of SCOTUS justices (to pack it w/ liberal judges) -Making DC & PR states (in hopes of 2 Dem senators each)"
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 21, 2020
Tweet - "Despite the Dem-led misinformation campaign, filling this SCOTUS seat follows historical Senate norms. There is a different precedent if you have a divided government (2016) vs. having the same party in control in the WH & Senate (now). In fact, Joe Biden made the distinction."
Sen. John Thune
Sept. 21, 2020
Tweet - "Many GOP senators -- myself included -- decided to run for office for this very reason: to be in a position to restore the court to its original constitutional purpose as a judicial body, not a legislative one. We ran for this. We were elected for this. Now, we will follow through."
