John Thune released a statement after he was reelected as GOP Leader.


On Monday afternoon, John Thune addressed the Senate for the first time since the midterm bloodbath.

Democrats flipped seven Senate seats last week, and they are working on taking two more seats – Alaska (through voter fraud with decoy Dan Sullivan) and Mississippi.

After failing to get the SAVE America Act passed, Thune said he is ready to work with the Democrats ‘in a bipartisan way’ as he emphasized that he will oppose their radical agenda.

“There is no doubt about it. Tuesday night was a tough election night. It was certainly not the outcome that we had hoped for, but it was the outcome the American people chose. And we have to listen to them.”

“I am proud of what Republicans have been able to accomplish for the American People in the 119th Congress, most especially the working family tax cuts…” Thune said.

“But the American people let us know that they need more. Inflation is still too high and just going to the grocery store can take a huge chunk out of a family’s budget,” Thune said.

“And so I think the election gave us two things… one, an opportunity to reflect on what we as a party need to do better…” Thune said.

Thune extended an olive branch across the political aisle, telling Democrats that Republicans are ready to work with them.

“I want to say to my Democrat colleagues, new and old, that Republicans are ready to work with you,” he said.

“We can notch our first bipartisan win for the American people before the new Congress even starts,” Thune said.
