Tucker Carlson is sounding the alarm.

His post on X is urging me and you, President Donald Trump supporters, to storm our Senators’ inboxes in support of Rick Scott for Senate leader!

Why?

Mitch McConnell is pulling a fast one with a secret ballot showdown.

He’s scheduling the vote before new Senators can get sworn in.

Meanwhile, conservative voices like Dan Bongino and Rand Paul are backing Scott.

As the Senate leadership drama unfolds, Trump supporters are being called to action to ensure a RINO isn’t installed.

Donald Trump Jr. warned us about this back in February.

Newsweek reports:

With Republicans winning control of the U.S. Senate in this year’s election, discussions about who will replace outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, have come into sharper focus.

The new GOP majority will be tasked with selecting a caucus leader after being sworn in on January 3 since McConnell announced earlier this year that he will step down from his position in the new term.

Florida Senator Rick Scott has renewed his push for the leadership position after Republicans flipped four seats from Democrats in this year’s election, falling short of a potential super majority.

Scott, a Trump-backed candidate who was elected for a second term this week, reiterated his intent and belief that he will be the next Senate majority leader on Wednesday, telling Fox News, “I’m going to win.”

“I’ve been talking to my Republican colleagues, guess what. They want change,” Scott said. “They know that Trump has a mandate, they want to be part of that mandate. They want to be treated as equals.”

A report from Axios released on Friday stated that Republican President-elect Donald Trump had privately dismissed Scott as an option weeks ago, telling allies that the senator’s bid was “not serious.”

A senior Trump campaign official denied the report and dismissed the anonymous sources Axios cited, saying Trump “hasn’t weighed in on the leadership race and anyone who says differently is wrong.”

Some allies close to Trump see Scott as a viable option, which the senator has worked to translate into a public endorsement from Trump.

Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson and Utah Senator Mike Lee have publicly backed Scott as an option and urged Trump to do the same. During a recent interview with conservative talk radio host Jesse Kelly, Johnson called Scott an “extraordinary individual, highly successful in the business world, highly successful governor of Florida” who “turned that state around” and “set [Florida Governor] Ron DeSantis up for success.”

“Jesse, if you’ve got any influence with President Trump, get Trump to come out publicly to say he wants to work with someone as accomplished as Rick Scott to accomplish his agenda,” Johnson said, insisting that the Republicans “have to deliver” while in the majority.

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson touted Scott on X as “the only candidate who agrees with Donald Trump” and urged people to “call your senator and demand a public endorsement of Rick Scott. Don’t let McConnell get away with it again.”

Dustin Grage, Townhall columnist and self-described “Minnesota GOP Hype Man,” also backed Scott, writing on X, formerly Twitter, on Friday that while he’s “not the biggest fan of Rick Scott,” he believes he is “the best among those running” and “any pragmatic conservative would take him over [Senator John] Thune or [Senator John] Cornyn.”
