Today's Five-Minute Activism Task

Reid & McConnell are reportedly about to change the Senate rules. It’s probably a harbinger of sell-outs to come. But Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell is apparently about to conclude an agreement with Majority Leader Harry Reid which would sell out pro-gunners and decimate minority rights under the Senate rules. 
You know the drill, or you should by now. [Read ,do and share]

Here's my proof of delivery:

Scaring the Republicans

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and members of his caucus are tiptoeing toward legislation addressing gun violence amid deep anxiety over eroding GOP support in suburbs across the country. Expanded background checks and other modest proposals to address gun violence have strong support among swing voters in the suburbs, whom McConnell sees as crucial to keeping control of Republican-held swing Senate seats. [More]
That because they're not doing their jobs and explaining the right to keep and bear arms to their constituents in a way the media, including The Hill, will not. This is dealing with effects, not the cause.

All those words and not once does this explore how much the poll respondents actually understand the issues they're being asked to weigh in on.

Speaking of which, if Alexander Bolton is going to presume to be the arbiter of which Intolerable Acts are "moderate," he should change his title from"Senior Reporter" to"Senior Editorialist" and move this transparent manipulation job into the "Opinion" section.

Good God Almighty! Did Obama And CIA Arm Terrorists Who Murdered Our Ambassador? [More]
Probably. John Boehner and Mitch McConnell will get right on it.

The Frozen Swamp

 Mitch McConnell Says He Will Throw His Support Behind Trump-Hating RINO Lisa Murkowski in her Reelection Bid! — He REALLY Hates His Voters [More]

So what are Goldilocks Alaskans going to do about it -- besides dissing Joe Miller as unacceptable?

A Tale Told by an Idiot, Full of Sound and Fury, Signifying Nothing.

Rep. Bowman Leads Colleagues in Letter to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Common Sense Gun Law Reform [More]

That means a race card exploiting collectivist who wants your guns sees a chance to grab the publicity spotlight without actually doing anything.

Don't panic.  The 3% prognosis hasn't changed on HR 8 and HR 1446, and the midterms are approaching.

As the Knees Buckle

House GOP Opens the Door to Gun Control Debate - Rules Chairman Sessions says Democrats' no-fly list provision not a poison pill [More]
Well it should be to anyone with principles.  What is it about "shall not be infringed" and "due process" that you find so difficult, Pete?

And slithering in on the Senate side is Mitch McConnell. Forget about "suggestions from experts"-- they're all invested in the monopoly of violence.  You'd better be listening to suggestions from people who've reached the "No, your move" stage.

I've got one for you. Explain your immigration subversion and your own culpability, you damned bought-and-paid-for poltroon:

Note to Republicans: You consider betrayal in time of need at all our peril.

We're the Only Ones Inflating Enough

NYPD officer says he inflated charge against Eric Garner [More]
One guy dead over five packs of Newports?

Stay tuned. Mitch McConnell will inflate those numbers in no time.

Messing with Debra

Debra Messing sparks outrage for agreeing with 'sick' tweet that said 'if I get killed in a mass shooting please cremate me and throw my ashes into Mitch McConnell’s and Dana Loesch’s eyes while I’m still smoldering' [More]
Because we've already established, it is all about her.

I wonder if she's had a date yet.

As for the ashes, I have a better use for them.

Who Better to Surrender Than the 'Leader'?

Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell backed off his demand that Senate Democrats preserve the procedural tool known as the filibuster, easing a standoff with new Majority Leader Chuck Schumer as the two negotiated a power-sharing agreement in the closely divided chamber. [More]

Nonetheless, it looks like appealing to Joe Manchin worked -- for now.

With 'Republicans' Like These...

 Several Republican Senators Roy Blunt (MO), Richard Burr (NC), Shelley Moore-Capito (WV), Bill Cassidy (LA), Susan Collins (ME), John Cornyn (TX), Joni Ernst (IA), Lindsey Graham (SC), Chuck Grassley (IA), Jim Inhofe (OK), Ron Johnson (WI), James Lankford (OK), Mitch McConnell (KY), Jerry Moran (KS), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Rob Portman (OH), Mitt Romney (UT), Mike Rounds (SD), John Thune (SD), and Thom Tillis (NC) all voted to confirm Garland. [More]

Well, that doesn't bode well for freedom. So much for "pro-gun" creds that got several of these frauds elected. I'll be interested in seeing how many got "A" ratings from NRA, and what their NumbersUSA grades are. 

And it looks like he'll be directing  DOJ focus on targets other than the communists occupying "autonomous zones" in American cities. Establishment" GOP support for him means they are counting on a government discrediting campaign against Trump agenda supporters.

At least GOA "scored the final vote in favor of the confirmation of Judge Garland as an anti-gun vote."

The Stupid Party Rides Again

 Mitch McConnell is signaling he's open to reforming the Electoral Count Act, one year after a mass of Republicans objected to certification of President Joe Biden’s win ahead of an attempted insurrection. [More]

Preemptively surrendering ways to stop the next steal surprises who?

FAAFO

 Mitch McConnell Faces Blowback Over the Impeachment Vote He Helped Engineer [More]

And he's just at the start of his eighth term as "leader," so by the time anyone gets around to primarying him, who knows what the landscape will look like?

Looks like he doesn't have the belly for a fight he helped start.

And in case you were wondering...

The Great Compromiser

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell takes pride in his reputation as a great compromiser. But the Republican leader won’t concede on one point: He refuses to let conservatives fight the White House for lower spending levels. [More]
That's because he knows which side his bread is buttered on. The establishment's.

That's because he's living proof of Quigley's Dictum:
“The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can ‘throw the rascals out’ at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy” (Georgetown University Professor Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope, 1966.)
Oh, and don't let this fool you. That's just to keep his place until the results of this kick in. That "single issue" two-word deflection sure is an elegant fraud.

It's a big club and you ain't in it.

Senate primary challenger in KY running against senate minority leader Mitch McConnell, Matt Bevin, David Codrea, AAR fan from Missouri, Harold awards the Bonehead of the Week, George Hill, Jerry Henry, and BBQ expert Bill Cannon from Texas.
Tell a friend?  Unless you think there's entirely too much pro-RKBA information being disseminated in the national broadcast media...?

Surrender

What the hell else would you call it? [More]

Here's why.

Great on point comment by Carlos Perdue in response to a serial disruptor/troll:
Orwellian lick jobs like you are what make it Bizarro. It's the DHS that's been *importing* the terrorists and jihadis and the illegal invaders all along, through intentional gross dereliction (subversion), first under Bush and accelerated under Obama. It's Obama who is now pretending to hold America's national security and immigration enforcement hostage to his illegal amnesty. Of course he has no intention of preventing terrorists and illegals from coming in. Quite the contrary, he is attempting to give amnesty to both and pave the way for more. It's Obama who is refusing to fund the DHS until he gets the rubber stamp for DHS to further subvert the law, defecate on the Constitution, and undermine the USA. Obama could fund DHS tomorrow if he didn't insist on abusing national security for the Democrats' illegal, treasonous agenda.

Republicans are willing to and are trying to fund DHS immediately, without paying ransom by rolling for Obama's illegal, treasonous acts and agenda. It's Obama & the Dems who are "shutting down the government" etc. unless they get their ransom.
Don't be coy, Lickter. You know this is all about a coup d'etat, to import tens and hundreds of millions of 3rd worlders and other future Democrats to permanently overwhelm the native born citizenry's voting control of our country, as they already have in California.
Also, learn how to spell Bizarro, dumbo.
Oh, look:
Mitch McConnell is a true champion of our Second Amendment rights...
Where have I heard those words before?
