Senator Thom Tillis appears to have been granted a larger slice of the lobbyist money from Thune and McConnell because he certainly is taking up a position next to Joni Ernst in strategic opposition to President Donald Trump.
The level of passive aggressive threat-speak within Tillis’ very carefully selected wording is quite concerning. “President Trump enjoyed a great deal of Republican support in his first term,” Tillis notes. “But if people want to play the outside [pressure] game, they run a lot of risk,” he continues. “Four votes is all it’s going to take to kill a nomination here, so they should take pause,” Tillis reminds everyone.
Senator Tillis from North Carolina represents the aloof mindset of the Senate at large, and the detached mindset of the Republicans in the senate specifically.
The republicans in North Carolina in 2024 are highlighting just how similar they are to the republicans in Georgia, circa 2020.
Tilly’s is an idiot. Has no legitimate influence. His eyes are too close together, like when Will Farrell makes his “dumb face.” MAGA will crush Tillis.
He has got to go! These Demorepublicans are killing America!
Tom Tillis needs to stand down or he’ll be taken out in the next election.
Vance can take over the Senate, put it in recess, and Trump can do recess appointments.
Trump can take away security clearances from renegade legislators. Start with Schiff.
Trump can ‘6-ways-to-Sunday’ renegade Senators.
Trumps future depends upon 1) Maximum retribution on usurpers in the Executive Branch., 2) Crushing dissent by legislators just as Lyndon Johnson did in the 60’s.
MAGA will not survive a Trump failure.
No, even if the manuever you suggest IS “legal”, that is NOT how we want PDJT to get his cabinet.
They must have ,”legitimacy”,i.e. go thru the regular confirmation process.
And, if any of them “don’t have the votes, rather than withdrawing the nomination, PDJT needs to double down, and force the barstid RINOS to expose themselves by actually voting “No”.
My bet is they ‘cave’; it is a win/win for PDJT to not withdraw the nomination, and a lose, lose for the Rinos.
Agree 100%. Name one of them who has the ability to outthink President Trump. Score 0. Name one of them who has the ability to outwork President Trump. Score 0. Name one of them who has the ability to enlist WE THE PEOPLE to join him. Score 0.
Anyone notice that the more McConnell tried to take out President Trump, the more his health has failed. If Mitch was a Christian one could say he’s about to have a Come to Jesus Moment. Mitch is a Satan worshipper (like the other two of his elite 3–Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden).
Pete Hegseth has not caved because he realizes that he IS the man for the job. Why don’t those in the Uniparty like him? Honesty. Why don’t those in the Uniparty like President Trump? Honesty. I wish Matt Gaetz hadn’t caved. He would have been an amazing AG. The Swamp pulled a number on him several years ago. Problem for the Swamp is that they didn’t choose a reputable slut to make the claim. Sort of like CBF. Good line until she had to face the music.
All MAGA members need to pay close attention to the Senate class of 2026: Tommy Tuberville, Steve Daines, Bill Cassidy, Dan Sullivan, Pete Ricketts, Susan Collins, Tom Cotton, Thom Tillis, Cindy Hyde-Smith, Jim Risch, Markwayne Mullin, John Cornyn, Joni Ernst, Lindsey Graham, Shelley Moore Capito, Roger Marshall, Mike Rounds, Cynthia Lummis, Mitch McConnell, Bill Hagerty
Pay attention to all Senators but these in particular. Many of them will determine their own fate by the end of February by either being FOR the PEOPLE (MAGA) or AGAINST the PEOPLE (RINO/UNIPARTY).
Every member of the House will be up for re-election so pay close attention especially to your Congressmen but also to House Leadership.
Remind ALL of those up for re-election that THEIR legitimacy is on the line. WE THE PEOPLE have already chosen sides WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP. Question is, are these members of Congress WITH US or AGAINST WE THE PEOPLE?????
<Vance can take over the Senate, put it in recess…>
No…He can’t do that.
Only the Majority Leader.

America will not survive a Trump failure. He isn’t our best chance, he is our last chance.
“Opposition face threat of being primaried. “
Sounds like the system is working like it is suppose to then.
Over 300+ electoral votes and the majority of the votes. Duh.
Stand down my rats A$$
Precisely! That was the American people telling this Government that we approve of everything President Trump wants to do. This includes his Cabinet picks.
This guy is a narcissistic 🤬
And it other news:
Prior to the inauguration PDJT has:
Probably more that I’m forgetting. It has been a busy time since the election.
Trump announces 25% tariffs on Mehico and Canada! until they stop sending illegals and fentanyl into USA.
Soon thereafter, the illegal alien caravans disband in Mexico, and Canada is bolstering their border security. Win, win, win!
Van Jones admits “Trump is smarter than all of us” and another major black, liberal influencers red-pills live, right on the air.
Tillis is evil. He is behind all the smear campaigns against Republicans he doesn’t like; Mark Robinson, Madison Cawthorne…He seems to be the leader of the GOP Party in NC.
He is done regardless.
He is and I think he knows it.
Primary this SOB!!!
What gives Tillis the confidence to make such statememts, and what enables the R Senators to maintain their aloof attitude, is no their State Repuublican Party Executivr committee will protect them from any tea party style attempts to Primary them.
In order to get a Senste that fears We, the People and is therefore responsive to us, WE, the PEOPLE (MAGA) need to take control of our 50 State Republican party exrcutive committees, and throw out the RINOS.
They have thoroughly gamed the system, undermining the Constitution, and representative Govt.
WE have to ungame the system, in order to help PDJT implement the MAGA/MAHA agenda, to assert States rights and use 10A to cut down Federal overreach, and to wipe that smug, supersillious grin off their faces, and replace it with one of fear, initially and then capitulation.
100% agree!
That’s great, but to take control of State party Executive Committee, typically you have to be elected at state convention. And IMO, you will not be successful by just yelling “RINO, RINO, RINO”. You need to show you can actually work, and work hard, to fundraise, get out the vote, form coalitions and other things that actually make parties function (politics).
Primary for you. You are as worthless as tits on a boar hog.
Who the hell do you think you are threatening we the people. It is time you learn, you work for us you little beotch.
Almost every Senator in the GOP is a Dem, almost all of them should be removed regardless of giving Trump his cabinet. They simply can’t be trusted. I personally would replace at least 37
What is Senator Thom Tillis fighting for? He does not articulate very well what he wants.
Basically he want to continue the Government of the Elites, By the Elites and For the Elites. Just as his has been for the past couple of generations.
He’s just blowing his own horn trying to look like he’s important and all. He is a Senator. Good for him. What he isn’t is the boss of the American people. Trying to throw his weak power around is NOT going to make him any friends or grab any votes. It will make people angry and they will pay more attention to what he really is doing in DC and how he is representing his constituents. Little Tommy Tillis needs to be reminded who is HIS boss. We the people.
Primary this ratsass first…
Can a senator be recalled?
I did a little research on that when Cornyn decided to un-retire. From what I understand (could be wrong) there is no way to recall a Senator.
Nope. Only the Senate can discipline/remove Senators (USCONS Art I/5/2):
“Each House may determine the rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two thirds, expel a member.”
Well I just called and left a message: 202-224-6342
Let him know he serves at our pleasure, not the other way around. We elected Trump as President not some obnoxious Senator full of himself willing to threaten US.
“That’s not what the Senator said and I’m sorry you took it that way” – the response I just received when I called one of his offices in NC and ripped them a new one for threatening us. I said lady I just watched his interview on Fox don’t lie to me. Me thinks the dear Senator has been receiving a number of calls today.
Need to start the primary challenge against Tillis NOW!!!
When elected public servants started viewing themselves as ‘elites,’ it is a title that should have been challenged immediately.
Even at the local level, this attitude was noted. In a controversy involving a mayor and a potential conflict of interest tied to an investment, another council member stated, ‘You will not intimidate me into silence… You will not make me ashamed to be part of the elite of this community, the Blaine City Council.’
It seems the journey of some grifters begins at the grassroots and as they work their way into the ‘big leagues,’ they forget the minor detail about being elected by the people and are meant to serve for the people.
Oh yes, you are on point.
In his own way, Tillis is calling for a MAGA candidate to come along and replace him.
Surely somebody in NC would be willing to campaign on the MAGA ticket against Tillis. With a Trump endorsement, you can’t lose!
typical boomer mindset. we can outlive them if nothing else.
Shut up and approve our president’s nominees.
This doesn’t mean some of those nominees shouldn’t withdraw or be withdrawn before it gets to the Senate.
Oz and Nesheiwat come to mind.
We are the MAGA. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.[6]
-MAGA
Let’s play a game. What person or think thank actually wrote this?
https://www.foreignaffairs.com/united-states/price-american-retreat-trump-mitch-mcconnell
Just reading the first pgh, it sure as hell wasn’t Mitch!
I read your link. This is McConnell and co’s policy on steroids which they are pushing against the result of the election including doing away with social security which Trump has said he will not touch.
This whole article is an open declaration of war on Trump and MAGA by McConnell.
Anyone who is not MAGA gets primaried.
The GOPe has thrown Markwayne and Joni in our faces now Tillis. Who is next Langford?
Please, let Lankford get primaried.
This is the same Thom Tillis who voted to confirm Merrick Garland for AG. I remember all of them who voted for that frigging creep:
Blunt (MO)
Burr (NC)
Capitol (WV)
Cassidy (LA)
Collins (ME)
Cornyn (TX)
Ernst (IA)
Graham (SC)
Grassley (IA)
Inhofe (OK)
Johnson (WI)
Lankford (OK)
McConnell (KY)
Moran (KS)
Murkowski (AK)
Portman (OH)
Romney (UT)
Rounds (SD)
Thune (SD)
Tillis (NC)
I have highlited the ones who seem to be making the most noise about Pres Trump’s nominees. If any of these uniparticrats oppose any of Trump’s nominees after having voted to confirm a sleaze like Garland they need to be primaried right out on their corrupt asses – every damn one of them.
I’m done with these losers.
They’re done they just don’t know it.
Utah just voted in Romney-lite with Curtis. I knew better.
Thom Tillis announces he’s detached from reality.
These clowns don’t understand the difference between a threat and a promise.
There’s just something about NC. Now we have several NC judges deciding to “unretire” and keep their Progressive pogroms going. If it’s gonna be good for the country, we can’t have it!
Cut these RINO punks down to size: recess appointments.
This makes me laugh.
Tillis meet MAGA at your next election. We don’t like to be talked down to.
This guy is so stupid he just shone sunlight on himself and saved us the effort.
Your days in the US Senate are officially over.
Good riddance, RINO.
right on.. once they lose the trust, they can never get it back. we dont have time for his learning curve. it they didnt know what was right the first time, they are disqualified. there are plenty of people to fill his seat that get it right off the bat.
Thom is a torn man, he either chooses “the people” or his donors. The old blame game, “you made me do it.”
Has he done anything for the flood victims, some freezing to death in tents?
Maybe if you take Senator Tillis up in a military jet and shove him out the hatch (with a parachute, of course!) right in the heart of the devastation that is western North Carolina and let those mountain men ask the Senator the tough questions – he might get his priorities in line!
Between Schiff/the Ds, the DS and the Rs, the Uniparty remains a substantial obstacle. These people need to be removed. Start with the Rs, we might have more success there. This is not a 4 year endeavor. This is not the end but hopefully the beginning of the end.
Primary Senator Tillis at the next opportunity. He needs to become former-Senator Tillis asap.
his number is up in 2026. He was elected and re-elected in his 2 elections by only 2pts!!!!
He can talk, but can he walk the talk. Not likely. He’ scared. Maybe Elon can use him as the guinea pig.
For some reason, my earlier post wasn’t allowed to go through, just invoked Jesus, said to wait for God, I guess that was inflammatory
“Joanie’s a good friend of mine” hmmm. So he’s playing it up for the CU Next Tuesday lying woman.
P.S. these people don’t have friends.
“Four votes is all it’s going to take to kill a nomination here, so they should take pause,”
One decision to recess-appoint any deserving nominee these clown try to stop will solve this problem.
Thank you President Trump for the devastating exposure of the “Deep State”….The rumpled and soiled trench coat of the perverted uni-party has been thrown open… The citizens are agape, aghast, and angered…it is quite ugly….The depth and breadth of “Deep State” corruption in our government is a swampy, putrid, quagmire and it is nearly impenetrable…So easily does it suffocate us.
I believe a certain over used colloquialism, “No one is above the law” bears further scrutiny…along with the phony, gluttonous, higher institutions that indoctrinate hate and evil anti-Americanism into elite, advantaged, or under qualified affirmative action students…. These Halls of glorified phonies have become masters at creating future, twisted, greedy, parasites….AKA…Lawyers!!…The Bard had a reasonable suggestion regarding these cretins..
A preponderance of these low life lawyers eventually become career politicians with unscrupulous ambitions and bottomless morals, quickly morphing into nothing more than larger versions of flesh eating bacteria….As denizens of the “Deep State” they feed in a swamp orgy discharging an overwhelming measure of ooze and stench…….It is from this puss we draw our judges…
So, there it is, the basic reason for terribly corrupt and crooked judges…and also why we are faced with such a preponderance of them…. And many of these Judges could not care less that we know of their biases or their treachery…Some seem to revel in our disdain and display great pride in their obvious advantage over “We the Peons”….
Well, here is a perfect example….Remember the J6’ers, the ultimate victims of the most egregious injustice in American history, perpetrated by Lawyers, Attorneys General, and Judges…. These communist indoctrinated goons viciously raped our Lady Liberty….They ripped her beautiful, home spun gown up the backside, slapped the Scales of Justice from her grip, bent her over her own pedestal, and repeatedly raped her in the name of hundreds of J6 Americans….Her blindfold absorbed her tears and thankfully blackened her view….But not mine!!!…
God protect these J6’ers…and those still hunted….
This too may pass….MAY…???….Therefor we Must Vote MAGA!!…America, as we love it, shall not survive another four years of such rampant and pervasive corruption…MAGA is our only escape from these slimy denizens of the swamp… Their ooze and stench must be eliminated and these creatures must be defeated and traitors executed…Judiciously, ….if possible…
Meanwhile, just in case, take a gander at the 2nd Amendment…
Gail V. Randall
(Full disclosure: I am aware that not all lawyers or Judges are thus afflicted…..I stand by “preponderance”)
Mr Tillis’ staff are fielding a large number of calls including mine today. I let his very polite staffer that in the United States of America citizens are free to call and or write his or her representatives in all capacities of government. It is also my right as a citizen of another State to let an elected person of a different state that said person was not on the ballot in my state and therefore was not the person who just won at the national level with a clear mandate. Mr Tillis was informed that this woman is not about to shut up and his threats need to stop immediately. I also called my representatives about Mr Tillis and his threats upon the American people.
Pretty much the centament left for Ernst last week.
I’ll take him up on killing off Bondi’s confirmation. So, should we start demanding she get in? Reverse psychology play.
REQUEST FOR ACTION PATRIOTS:
Rep Dan Bishop from NC would be a perfect MAGA primary opponent:
Last week, I left a voicemail at Rep Bishop’s DC office (his district web site contact info are for constituents in his district) regarding interest in running against Tillis in 2026.
DC Office number is 2459 Rayburn House Office Building
(202) 225-1976
I also sent a message on Instagram to him @repdanbishop. I do not have ‘X’.
Can someone with “X” send a message to Elon Musk and Charlie Kirk about support for Dan Bishop to Primary Tillis? Tillis was on Kirk’s list of RHINOS to primary for 2026.
POTUS Trump reconfirmed his support for Dan Bishop with this announcement:
“President-elect Donald Trump announced Tuesday evening his nomination of outgoing Rep. Dan Bishop as deputy director for budget at the Office of Management and Budget.”

plenty of fear and loathing from a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
go ahead vote them down
and see what happens
In other words: FAFO.
Love it.
When you say the elitist Republicans in NC 2024 are highlighting how similar they are to the elitist Republicans in Georgia circa 2020 do you mean that they are willing to align themselves with Democrat Lawfare in order to try to stifle the will of the people? That would be about right. In your own state, you remained silent when the Democrat Lawfare machine attacked your party’s candidate for Governor. You weren’t silent when you needed President Trump to get you over the hump and into office again. You hopped on his coattails and rode into the Capitol on them yet again. One minute you acknowledge that DONALD J TRUMP was elected by a majority of the voting public (even with the Democrats cheating again, including in YOUR state) as well as a landslide in the Electoral College and EVERY bellweather state.
If you want to remain a McConnell RINO, then so be it. If you want to be a MAGA Republican, you will vote with President Trump and have a chance to win again, if you so choose. Just remember that President Trump INCREASED his popular vote while most trailed off after the mass mail-out debacle.
Either get on the Trump Train or take the Democrat Depot with the Devil!!
He has to go. He is a puppet of Mitch.
It would be a shame if the dirt the IC have on you fell into the wrong hands, Tom.
Lara Trump needs to primary Tillis. He is a notorious anti-Trump thumper.
That’s quite the invitation: stand down because we only need “4 more votes in the Senate to block”….
Really?
Game on.
Please primary Tillis. He’s a hateful b-word!
Elon Musk promised $100 million to primary any Republican who voted against confirmation!
Take him up on his offer?
I’ll team with Musk and offer $100!
Unless you take control of the State Republican Party Executive Committee, its highly unlikely you will successfully primary Tillis.
Its a waste of energy, and it doesn’t matter how much $ you have, the State party controls the outcomes in a myriad # of ways.
Yes, but $100mm clears all of the LANDMINES and allows for the chance at a WIN……
And to primary an incumbent and win, you can’t have 2 or 3 candidates all through their hats in the ring, that’s what keep Sen Graham in his seat.
Really. Let’s see how long the NC GOP leadership stays in power given their outstanding performance. I see a Harris in their future.
I live in NC and pray for a good primary candidate against Little Tommy.
