After Blowback, John Cornyn Claims He Was Joking About Immigration Deal: ‘No Secret Amnesty Bill’

After Blowback, John Cornyn Claims He Was Joking About Immigration Deal: ‘No Secret Amnesty Bill’



by SEAN MORAN 22 Jun 2022

After facing swift and intense backlash from conservatives and Republican lawmakers, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) claimed that he was joking about striking a deal on amnesty after negotiating a deal on gun control.

As the Senate voted to advance gun legislation on Tuesday night, which arose from Cornyn’s negotiations with Democrats, Cornyn told Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA), “First guns, now it’s immigration.”

In response to Cornyn’s comment, Sinema said, “That’s right, we’re going to do it.”

The comment drew swift backlash from former Trump administration officials such as Andrew Surabian, House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (CA), and House Republican Study Committee (RSC) Chairman Jim Banks (IN).

How worthless are you to not even have the spine to set an agenda, and just wait till the woke nutjobs set it for you by trying to drag you to the left?

This son of a bitch RINO has gone stark raving mad.  CRT?  Here in Texas?  Wish we had some form of recall process.

No amnesty.  No CRT.

Illegals got amnesty in the 1986/1987 Immigration Reforms Act in exchange for the Federal Government enforcing immigrations laws, including punishing employers that hired illegal immigrants.

Illegal immigrants got their part of the bargain, American taxpayers and legal immigrants got hosed.

Well, for all the complaints about Cornyn, it was Texas Republicans who elected him.

You get who you vote for. Next time, think before you vote.
