McConnell puts imprint on Senate gun talks
The hill ^ | 06/08/2022 | Alexander Bolton

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has kept the upper chamber’s negotiations on gun reform narrowly focused by tasking one of his top deputies, conservative Sen. John Cornyn (Texas), to take the Republican lead in the talks.

Cornyn’s participation in the negotiations opened the door for another reliable Trump ally, Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), to play a greater role in the negotiations. This has balanced the influence of Republican negotiators who are seen as more moderate and more likely to endorse reforms that could wind up roiling the pro-gun rights GOP base.

They were chosen because neither has to face voters again until 2026.

I propose a new “Red Flag” law for Congress which allows the majority of voters in any State to suspend the ability of any member to vote on legislation when accused of abusing their office.

Don’t forget Pat Toomey, who has publicly bought into the rat notion that what is needed are “common sense.”

John Cornyn (Texas) is most definitely NOT a conservative.

Cornyn is no conservative and Tillis is no Trump ally.

They are both Amnesty Senators.

Amnesty is the opposite of MAGA.

Expect them to sell us out.

Just like Israel, WE will be the ones to “compromise and concede” if these rinos have their way. ENOUGH! 22,000 gun laws are far far too many laws already. STOP giving away what is rightfully ours!

Holy cow! That’s why the fella I mthe dress looked familiar- we’ve been seeing his face for years now. Has anyone seen the two of them together? Maybe he is one in the same?

As a NC conservative, I had to read the statement that Tillis was a reliable Trump supporter three times to be convinced I had read it correctly.

I was looking for UNreliable.

But considering that this is from THE HILL.....

Twin? Have they actually been seen in the same room together? Maybe this is McConnell’s side hustle.
