Gun Owners of America Labels 18 Republican Senators ‘Turncoats’

Lobby group slams members who voted to pass Omnibus spending bill that it says funds Biden gun-control programs'

Gun Owners of America (GOA), the Virginia-based Second Amendment rights advocacy group, issued a scathing rebuke of the 18 Republican senators who voted for the 2023 Omnibus Appropriations Act.

In a Dec. 22 press release, GOA accused the group of advancing the Biden administration’s anti-gun agenda.

“Unfortunately, 12 gun-control items just passed the Senate with the help of these 18 Republican turncoats,” the press release states.

The Republicans who voted for the bill are Sen. Roy Blount, Missouri; Sen. John Boozman, Arkansas; Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, West Virginia; Sen. Susan Collins, Maine; Sen. John Cornyn, Texas; Sen. Tom Cotton, Arkansas; Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina; Sen. Jim Inhofe, Oklahoma; Sen. Mitch McConnell, Kentucky; Sen. Jerry Moran, Kansas; Sen. Lisa Murkowski, Alaska; Sen. Rob Portman, Ohio; Sen. Mitt Romney, Utah; Sen. Mike Rounds, South Dakota; Sen, Richard Shelby, Alabama; Sen. John Thune, South Dakota; Sen. Roger Wicker, Mississippi; and Sen. Todd Young, Indiana.

Tom Cotton also voted for the 1.7 trillion Omnibus bill. He sucks.

“We support a few individual candidates based on their merit. We will never ever give a single penny again to the GOP party machine. They can GTH !”

After the last two years I’m thinking those Bass Tards are so well graffted by lobbyists and hidden things in the bills they pass they could give a damn about the little people pitching in on their re-elections.

This list includes people that are actually democrats but have gotten away with lying about being Republican. In my experience, you leave a republican in office long enough, they’ll turn, too. We are so screwed.

Inhofe will be gone in a few weeks.
We replaced him with Mullin.
I wanted TW Shannon.

Nothing new here...
Just the usual GOP surrender monkeys enjoying their usual circle jerk...

We’ll see the exact same type of thing from the House during the next two years...

Communists very rarely lose...

Or Hunter's laptop. That's not even the issue—it's about the government enforced coverup and the Big Guy getting 10% from foreign powers, which is treasonous and corrupt...

But bet the “story” and coverage of any hearings will be all about drugs, hookers, and debauchery.

The next Trey Gowdy-like chairman will be glad to pompously orate and focus on that to get him/herself great ratings...Maybe even a 7 figure gig with Fox News...

Let's hold their feet to the fire and not let them sing the same old song and dance to us.

It’s hard to label them “turncoats” when they never really turned away from who they’ve always been. They’re just democrats.

Oh wow I didn't know that. What the hell is going on here? It's like some kind of leftist vortex they all get sucked into, like that old Star trek episode where they get sprayed with the plant and their minds completely go left

"I now see the light! Nancy Pelosi is the greatest person ever! Chuck Schumer is my God! Joe Biden is a genius!"

"I have to use correct pronouns! I am not a biologist, I cannot define a woman! Guns shoot themselves! Jan.6th was an attempted coup not the Russia collusion hoax!"

You might call yourself a Republican. You might be the best part of what people call the republicans. But it’s time EVERYONE realizes it’s just the Uniparty and senators have more regard for other senators than they do for their so-called constituents.

This is just another reason why all senators and representatives should be subject to recall. If your state doesn’t have a recall provision, and most don’t, start working now to get one into your state constitution.

Federal officers, i.e., senators and congressmen, cannot be recalled. This has been litigated in federal court (Frank Church, Idaho, 1967) and state court (Robert Menendez, New Jersey, 2013). The only way to recall a federal officer is to amend the US Constitution to permit it. State recall provisions do not apply to federal officers.

Calling them “turncoats” or “sellouts” implies that the GOP was ever on your side to begin with - which is false.
