John Cornyn Joins Deep State In Calling Conservatives Terrorists
Evita Duffy-Alfonso
Forever war enthusiast Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.) declared Tuesday that the ouster of Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House was tantamount to a “terrorist attack,” suggesting that the eight House members who voted with Democrats to remove McCarthy were, themselves, terrorists.
“We saw a similar thing happen to Boehner, Ryan, and now McCarthy. I’m sure the next speaker is going to be subjected to the same terrorist attacks,” Cornyn said. Later, Cornyn doubled down on his remarks, writing on X, “A handful [of] House members just want to blow up the institution and themselves in the process. Sad.”
To be clear, a cut-and-dry democratic vote to remove someone from a place of power is the farthest thing from a terror attack, which involves a premeditated, violent assault that inflicts injury, death, and fear on a populace.
In likening eight Republicans to “terrorists,” Cornyn joins the left in their campaign to label virtually all conservatives — the very people Cornyn claims to represent — as dangerous domestic extremists and terrorists.
