Stupid, pathetic and completely ineffective attempt to placate those who are implacable.

When did “giving the bully your lunch money” ever do anything except encourage the bully to demand more?

I don’t have a problem with Juneteenth being a holiday. But keep Columbus day. Then where does it end? We’ll have so many holidays that there will be no more work days. Kinda sounds like teachers and Congress now.

They still haven’t said what they’re going do about a clearly virtue signaling holiday at the time of year when most schools are closed for the Summer.

Republicans can’t seem to appease fast enough and throw the election to the rising tide of Marxists who will destroy America.

Republican Sens. Ron Johnson and James Lankford on Wednesday introduced an amendment proposing to replace Columbus Day with Juneteenth as a new federal holiday to avoid putting the U.S. “further in debt.”

Johnson, R-Wis., and Lankford, R-Okla., rolled out their proposal as an amendment to bipartisan legislation rolled out by Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, last month that would make Juneteenth a federal holiday.

These three rino fags, like so many others in the pubbie party, are despicable beyond belief.

Even the rino fag that is my senator in PA, is not quite this bad {maybe he'll join them later today}.

Last night, Tucker tore the hide off of lankford and johnson and I'll bet neither one wants to go on his program and defend their position.

there is NOTHING that the RINO appeasers will not do
to get face time with the MSM, even sell out their
voters.

RINOs are preparing to honor George Soros and Romney
with a monument to them to replace Lincoln.

Its comming. Romney-Soros OR Marx <== choose one

More proof that there are only about a dozen or so elected Republicans that are worth supporting, with DJT a must. We need a new political party.

It’s comical to see this childish idiocy at a time when our government is hell-bent on flooding this country with immigrants who don’t give a sh!t about Juneteenth, slavery, Confederate flags, or even black people in general.

So we have would have two explicitly black holidays. At least Juneteenth is during a nice part of the year.

“In response to a bipartisan effort to give federal workers another day of paid leave by designating Juneteenth a federal holiday, we have offered a counterproposal that does not put us further in debt,” Johnson said Wednesday

A four trillion dollar deficit and climbing for the year and now they're worried about putting us further in debt?

Contact them to request that they stop the silliness. I did, while watching Tucker last night.
