Instead, it can be offered as an amendment. But its exclusion from the package makes what was already an uphill battle an almost certain defeat.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, its only because Reid remembers the 1994 midterms when the Democrats lost the majority in Congress for the first time in more than 50 years mainly because of the so-called assault weapon ban. Politico continues to speculate on whether or not Chuckie Schumer&#8217;s background checks legislation will be included in the package bill;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A universal background checks bill with no exemptions was offered by Schumer in the Judiciary Committee and approved by the panel with only Democratic support. But it will not be part of the basic bill that comes to the floor, Democratic insiders said.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>There are additional versions of background checks bills being floated \u2014 and Manchin may soon introduce a version based on the talks with Coburn \u2014 but which one will get Reid\u2019s blessing is up in the air.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Whether these bills are passed or not, the damage to Democrats has been done. Gun owners might have fallen for the constant &#8220;we&#8217;re not coming for your guns&#8221; line we&#8217;ve heard over the past 12 years, but i don&#8217;t think they&#8217;ll fall for it again next year. The Democrats showed their hand in the post-election months and sooner or later, they&#8217;re coming for our guns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to Politico, Dianne Feinstein learned that her ban on scary-looking black rifles will not be &hellip; <a title=\"Feinstein&#8217;s scary gun ban booted by Reid\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=34618\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Feinstein&#8217;s scary gun ban booted by Reid<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[82],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34618","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gun-grabbing-fascists"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34618","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=34618"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34618\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=34618"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=34618"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=34618"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
