Mitch McConnell calls on Democrats to pass Supreme Court security bill.

Since most GQP'ers say that those who are murdering people with AK 27's are mentally ill, just open up more mental intuitions MoscowMitch.

Problem solved

1. Nope.

Sorry not sorry, Mitch.

[Raven]

9. Nope.

[Irish_Dem]

20. Nope.

If America children cannot be protected, neither can the wealthy elite.

[Samrob]

26. Mitch wants this badly? Isn't it because the GOP attached protection of Senators to it?

Just asking.

[MontanaMama]

36. Moscow Mitch is saying the quiet part out loud.

Judge Boof and the rest of the SCOTUS judges who lied to get where they are matter more far than children. Judge Boof can give Mitch and his ilk what they want. Kids are just necessary collateral damage to that end.

[zuul]

2. So the turtle wants something from Dems.

Now is the time to stick it to him and hold firm on the bills we want to see passed, like gun reform. Don’t give in to him unless we get something in return!

[GoCubsGo]

4. Yep, call his bluff.

No protection for Kavanaugh without protecting the rest of the country, too.

[lastlib]

3. ONLY IF Chris Murphy can attach an amendment...

...BANNING industrial-strength child-killing machines!

Otherwise, the Supremes can just sweat it out. They helped create the Frankenstein, they have to live with it like we do.

15. 👍

5. I'm sure they're armed. They'll be fine.

[Scrivener7]

6. Let's call the gun control bill the "grade school security bill" and have its passage attached

to the supreme court security bill.

[Duncan Grant]

7. Correction: Secure my legacy.

One of these days, I’d like to find out how this despicable man was able to secure such wealth and power. It must be a toxic and nauseating story.

[TheRealNorth]

8. If only they weighed the lives of our children as much as they do that of conservative SCOTUS member

I mean, by their rationale, the SCOTUS member just needs an AR-15 at home and they should be safe.

[Trueblue1968]

38. NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DONT DO IT till Repukes get rid of guns !!!!!

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FalloutShelter]

10. Absolutely not.

They can take their chances like the rest of us.

[gldstwmn]

27. Let them see what their crap decisions like Heller have wrought.

[llmart]

11. Oh hell no, Mitch.

You don't get to make demands.

[mvd]

12. No. Gun control should be passed before the sun sets

Repukes always with the wrong priorities.

[global1]

13. Couple The Bills Together And Force The Repugs To Vote For Them As A Package.....

Let's see just how bad they want the SCOTUS Security Bill. Put them on the record.

[gldstwmn]

30. Include school lunch vouchers.

[crickets]

42. Excellent idea. nt

[gratuitous]

14. "They need to pass it today" - Or what?

The prospect of Supreme Court Justices living with the same perils and risks they so blithely put on the hoi polloi might be put on them, too? Well that would be a blow, wouldn't it? School children can be shot to pieces by a lunatic with a semi-automatic weapon, and that's just the cost of freedom in the United States. Supreme Court Justices have to look over their collective shoulder lest the Golem they unleashed on the land turn and pursue them is too horrible for you to contemplate, Senator? Welcome to the reality we citizens face, thanks to you.

[Pyryck]

16. I have a counter-proposal

How about a "Protect American Citizens FIRST" bill.

Seriously, not snark.

edit - by protecting ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS, all of the judges will be included, instead of just a bill for a special interest group.

[Dawgman49]

17. Let's really protect boofer boy

Vote on this only if attached to an assault weapons ban…really.. bring the bill… supremes have no more right to life than children. Chris Murphy is doing a good job.. saw him give an interview yesterday.. trying to be positive but he looked defeated.. his affect somber.. he knows the gop is all bs… Dems need to get tougher

[Irish_Dem]

18. Notice how quickly the wealthy elite are protected?

But American children murdered in school cannot be protected.

[Hekate]

19. Uh, nope

[Floyd R. Turbo]

21. 🖕🏻🐢❗️

[rickford66]

22. Why should they be safer than us.

They have the power to protect everyone.

[PXR-5]

23. Wow, sorry to hear of this,

but it's too soon to pass reactionary laws.

[dixiechiken1]

24. Yes, and this issue shouldn't be politicized.

[gldstwmn]

25. No.

[CrackityJones75]

31. FUCK HIM!

[spanone]

32. STFU mitch

you are the MINORITY 'leader'.

[riversedge]

33. It seems the vote failed............

34. Their fucking hypocrisy never ends!

[no_hypocrisy]

35. How LBJ would have handled this:

LBJ to Mitch: Sure, you've got all OUR votes -- right after your party votes to allow a filibuster-proof ban on assault weapons, with no sunset clause.

[ThoughtCriminal]

37. Isn't it too soon Mitch?

I could name some other things that need to pass TODAY.

[lindysalsagal]

39. Gee. Doesn't like guz after all???? Pointed at his enablers?

[ChuckInMO]

40. Let the turdle eat dirt.

[Wounded Bear]

41. Fuck you Mitch...nt

43. Mitch McConnell is a hypocrite...
