This kind of sniveling pandering is perfect for Ole Turtle Head. He gets to look like he is on the side of the base, but when he doesn’t actually hold a vote, there is absolutely nothing on the record that says that anybody voted for or against a clawback. Perfect. No records in politics are perfect for the politicians. And of course, the media will cover for him 100%. He’s practically a Demonrat anyway, as are most Republicans in Congress.

““It’s going nowhere,” Graham said. “We made a deal.””

When you look in the dictionary under “worthless pr!ck,” you find Graham’s likeness! Making “deals” with DemoRATs isn’t why we sent you to the Senate Lindsey.

Turtle Face needs to step down due to his lack of spine, guts, and his severe lack of cajones. I recommend Turtle Face read “Secret Empires” by Peter Schweizer. It’s definitely not a resume enhancer for the supposed RINO Senator.

Yeah, majority leader of the Senate, what are you going to say (let alone, do) about the non-stop partisan attacks on our President, on the Constitution and on the rule of law? ... Huh, Mr. McConnell??!!

If baseline budgeting is still be done, paring back won’t be.

“hard-fought”???????

I wouldn’t call rolling over hard-fought.

The RINOs didn’t roll over for anyone. They fought hard for their leftist spending goals. They might have bent over, but darn it, they wanted to and did it of their own will.

> I’m willing to discuss with the administration...

Proving that he is part of the opposition party.

[Olog-hai]

It’s a brazen admission, not a tacit one.
