Two of them are RINOs—John Thune and John Cornyn—while Rick Scott may not have the support to prevent either “McConnell 2.0” from ascending.

Senator Mike Lee has a plan. Well, it’s really just a theory combined with a wish, but it has a lot of conservatives wanting to sprinkle any fairy dust they can find on it so they can make it come true. The “John Adams Plan” would have Vice-President-Elect J.D. Vance ascend to the role of Senate Majority Leader while also fulfilling his duties as President of the Senate.

Crazier ideas have been put forth. Here’s what Senator Lee recently posted on 𝕏:

Here’s the point I was making:

Regardless of who Senate Republicans elect as the new majority leader, @JDVance will be the president of the Senate, and as such will be in a good position to lead the Senate GOP—to whatever extent and in whatever way he chooses to do so

In that respect, @JDVance doesn’t have to run to be the Senate’s GOP leader

He already did

And he won

So regardless of who might become the majority leader—a position we need to fill from among Republican senators—@JDVance could still “pull a John Adams,” and thus become the highest-ranking & most-influential Republican in the Senate

“Constitutional Scholars” have emerged on 𝕏 to try to shoot down the idea but here’s the thing. The Senate Majority Leader isn’t even a Constitutional role. It is part of the Senate’s own internal rules so giving Vance “side job” as Majority Leader while also retaining his VP role as President of the Senate seems viable.

Having the presidency and retaining control of the House are obviously important if we’re to see Donald Trump’s full agenda fulfilled, but handing the reins of the Senate over to Thune or Cornyn will greatly hamper the agenda. Both have interests that are often opposed to the America First policies Trump wants to sign. With a Democrat-leaning Senate map coming up in the midterms, it appears likely that Trump will only have two years to complete his mission unhampered.

Either Thune or Cornyn would hamper that mission.

Senator Lee’s plan is gaining traction among conservative media heavy hitters. Both Charlie Kirk and Glenn Beck endorsed the plan Friday:

A poll posted by Senator Lee on 𝕏 shows Scott as the favorite among the conservative base.

Meanwhile, leftist corporate media has been attacking Senator Scott. Axios posted an article Thursday claiming that Trump didn’t feel Scott was a good Senate Majority Leader candidate. It cited anonymous sources, of course, but Google searches for Scott taking the role showed the Axios headline up top. That is often enough to spread a false narrative and damage sentiment toward Scott.

Conservative thought leaders on 𝕏 are lining up behind Scott.

We desperately need Trump to publicly support Rick Scott for Senate Majority Leader.

If it’s Cornyn or Thune, it’s a continuation of McConnell.

And without Trump’s weight behind Scott, he will not win.

This matters. A lot.

Mr President: Please put your finger on the scale for @rickscott for majority leader in the Senate. If it isn’t him, LETS GET @JDVance to take the position. It will make him a real leader getting things done and your voice in the senate. Together you will get it done.…

We need Rick Scott for Senate Majority Leader

MAGA just swept the country with a mandate

Not the RINO uniparty types like John Thune and John Cornyn

MAGA must be in charge of the Senate https://t.co/IcETlmR05G

Why in the world did Josh Hawley just back John Cornyn for Senate Majority Leader?

Cornyn is one of the absolute worst.

Rick Scott needs to be leader.

President Trump’s first term was subverted by Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan. He will be subverted again if “McConnell 2.0” is running the Senate. J.D. Vance or Rick Scott as Senate Majority Leader would put Trump’s agenda into overdrive.

Politicians have generally avoided the topic. There are a handful on Capitol Hill who occasionally mention the group and even a couple who have taken minor actions, but for the most part Washington DC never brings up the topic. That may change if Donald Trump wins because Robert F. Kennedy Jr, who has been promised a role in the administration, seems unabashed in his criticism.

On a recent interview with Glenn Beck, RFK Jr didn’t hold back on the WEF. He called them a “billionaire’s boys club” and highlighted how they push politicians to shift wealth upward.

“The World Economic Forum is ‘a billionaires’ boys’ club that’s arranging for the world to shift wealth upward, and to clamp down totalitarian controls on everybody else.

“It’s astonishing to me that these people go to Davos in their private jets, and they’re able to tell these world leaders how to govern us in ways that eradicate our constitutional and civil rights.”

RFK Jr will be focused on “Making America Healthy Again” as part of a future Trump administration. As a former Democrat and blatant progressive on some issues, the hope by many patriots is that he stays in his lane and doesn’t get into Trump’s ear on too many other topics. When it comes to the WEF, we hope he does get Trump to pay more attention to the dangerous group.

Glenn Beck went on with Tucker Carlson Thursday night to give his perspectives on the indictment of Donald Trump. He wondered where the Republicans are. He wondered where the decent Democrats are.

Notably, he said this isn’t about getting Trump to not run in 2024. It’s about getting us to lash out. He’s not wrong, but that doesn’t mean we need to be too careful for our own goods. We need to peacefully protest, to make our voices heard while we still have the rights.

If we don’t exercise our rights, they will be weakened and eventually become ineffective.  Don’t break laws, but don’t sit back and hope for the best, either.

“But really, what it’s about is controlling how much energy people can use. And if you can control how much energy a household can use, you can control their economic activity — you also control how big their family can get. And I think that’s ultimately what it’s about.”
