McConnell and Cornyn say House version on SCOTUS security won’t pass Senate. House Ds have changed Senate bill to also include security for clerks and staff. “The security issue is related to the Supreme Court justices, not to nameless staff that no one knows," McConnell said

1. So it's OK to shoot people if you don't know them?

[TreasonousBastard]

5. Close. It's OK to shoot if I don't know them.

13. It's OK to shoot them if they can't do you a favor

the justices can issue rulings that benefit the turtle and his enablers - the clerks and staff can't

2. Just important people deserve protection. Not peons and children.

11. That is prety standard across government.

Only a tiny fraction of people who work at the White House have any protection outside of work.

3. mitch, you're such a sweetheart

and they'll blame the Democrats

6. &itch is slipping, he said the quiet part out loud. What a dumb fuck.

7. Proof his only concern is protecting the court he created. nt

8. He's gotta maintain his ROI as long as he can.

9. I guess it wasn't that important to him

Seems like he thought it was an emergency last week.

10. The ol' slippery slope.

If you protect even a few Little People, then they'll want you to protect some more, and then some more than that, and so on and so on.

14. and before you know it

they'll be demanding comprehensive gun legislation. And Mitch can't have that.

12. its my understanding the senate unanimously passed this a couple weeks ago?

Or am i missing something.

15. Security for the people "who count."

[gldstwmn]

16. He is everything that is wrong with Congress.

[Arazi]

17. Does he know it's a staffer who leaked Alito's draft?

I wonder if this is retribution.

He doesn’t want any staffers protected is cause for pause.
