GOP senators slam McConnell, Republican colleagues for supporting omnibus

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Republican Sens. Ron Johnson (Wis.) and Mike Lee (Utah) slammed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and their GOP colleagues on Sunday for supporting the $1.7 trillion omnibus package that Congress sent to President Biden’s desk on Friday.

The GOP senators had argued it would have been better to wait for the GOP to take control of the House in January to pass an omnibus bill, arguing this would have given Republicans more leverage.

Lee denounced the omnibus as “the ugliest spending bill on record,” taking aim at McConnell and the party’s Senate leadership in an interview with radio talk show host John Catsimatidis on Sunday.

“Our party leadership turned on Republican voters, turned on the Republican base, turned on most Republican senators,” Lee said on “The Cats Roundtable” on WABC 770 AM. “It has happened before, but this is one too many times. For me, this is the final straw.”

1. How dare they support something that will help people.

I hope McConnell undermines the House leadership often.

2. Easy answer: GOP is not about helping common folks

GOP is all in cahouts with the donor class.

3. You shouldn't be looking for " leverage" when voting to pay for that which you have already spent

4. I will never get over Johnson was returned to the Senate.

What an odious creature he is.
