Sen. Tillis tests positive for COVID
The Hill ^ | 10/31/2023 | SARAH FORTINSKY

Posted on 10/31/2023 9:00:24 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) on Tuesday said he had tested positive for COVID-19 and would miss votes this week in the Senate.

His office confirmed to The Hill he plans to return to Washington next week.

Tillis, who had planned to host a Halloween “dog parade” on Tuesday, said he no longer would be able to attend but suggested Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) could take his place.

“Unfortunately I have COVID and won’t be able to kick off today’s Bipawtisan Howl-o-ween Dog Parade. But believe me, it will all work out. I know the perfect person for the job…,” Tillis wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter, with a picture of Romney holding a soccer ball and a referee whistle.

Romney would be a good choice to lead a dog parade.

Comments below the video:

“My best friend was an RN who swore he’d never take it. Finally broke down the day before he would have been fired on 9/29/21 and took it. Less than 3 months later he was gone. A month after taking it was diagnosed with leukemia...was perfectly healthy before that. On his death bed he said that is what was killing him. 42 years old and left behind 3 children and a wife. Great guy with a huge heart!”

Perfect excuse for Mr. Big Tobacco to NOT take a stance on Stand Alone Israeli support. Remember, he is Mr.vote Ukraine tight with McConnell. And.. a jive a@@ tobacco lawyer. Full of re-distribution of tax money to “hep” his constituency.

Check Open Secrets on who runs this jacksnipe.

Because they are getting ready to impose another lockdown, and this one will be permanent.

From the article: “Tillis, who had planned to host a Halloween “dog parade” on Tuesday, said he no longer would be able to attend but suggested Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) could take his place.”

Tillis ran for election to the Senate as a conservative. Since joining the “club” he has been a reliable vote for Mitch and the establishment. According to Heritage Action for America Tillis’s score in the current session is 51% conservative, whereas the average GOP Senator votes 75%. His lifetime score is 61% conservative, demonstrating his move to the left.

The state Republican Party in June 2023 voted to censure Tillis for his less than conservative record. Two thirds of the representatives at the state party convention voted to censure Tillis.

The new, new, new, new improved rule is 5 days of isolation and then you are no longer infectious. The science is settled. He can get back to work Monday.
