We have to fix it.” Click here to watch the video.WASHINGTON — U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) today joined Larry Kudlow on Fox Business.On a nominations rules change:“The Schumer-led Democrats literally broke the system. We have to fix it, and we needed to take the steps to do that, because you’re right, the president needs to run the government. How do you do that without having your people in place? So it’s an unfortunate set of circumstances, but it required a response that it was necessary to fix the problem.”On Stephen Miran’s confirmation:“We’re set up to vote on him on Monday. It’s two votes. There’s a cloture vote and then a subsequent confirmation vote, but hopefully we’ll have him across the floor of the Senate on Monday. He’ll be ready to go.”On Charlie Kirk’s impact:“[H]e inspired a generation of Americans, Larry, to get involved in public discourse in a way that … I think part of it was that he had strength of conviction, which I think people find attractive. He inspired … young people to serve causes greater than themselves. And I think a lot of young people today are looking for that kind of motivation. And obviously he had a passion for it, for sharing it. There was a spirituality about it that I think … people today find infectious and attractive.”On the benefits of the One Big Beautiful Bill:“It will be very good for the economy. It addressed all the major agenda items on the president’s agenda, including border security, national security, energy, obviously, tax relief for working families and for businesses, and then spending reductions that we haven’t seen literally in … at least a couple of decades. This is the first serious entitlement reform done in the time that I’ve been in office. So it achieved a lot of things that I think many of us who are conservatives in Congress have been trying to achieve for a long time, and it took the president to help push it across the finish line.”PrintEmailTweetNextPreviousTHE NEWSROOMSENATE RESOURCESABOUT LEADER THUNEFacebookXInstagram
