Hillary Clinton led the liberal charge to push for gun-grabs in the wake of the tragic shooting in Las Vegas.
Republicans expected their leaders in Congress to hold the line.
But Paul Ryan agreed with Hillary Clinton in an unthinkable act of betrayal.
Within hours of the shooting in Las Vegas, Hillary Clinton hopped on social media to politicize the tragedy and demonize Republicans and gun activists in order to push her gun control agenda.
She set her sights on legislation in Congress that would ease restrictions on purchasing suppressors.
Clinton spread the fake news that suppressors actually silence gunfire.
What really happens is it lowers the decibel level to that of a jumbo jet engine.
Hillary Clinton leapt onto social media to use the dead bodies as political fodder for her gun control agenda.
She sent out three tweets that spread fake news about the attack and the legislation pro-gun Republicans hoped to have voted on this week.
Las Vegas, we are grieving with you—the victims, those who lost loved ones, the responders, & all affected by this cold-blooded massacre.

The crowd fled at the sound of gunshots.
Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make easier to get.

Our grief isn't enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again.

Rather than fight Clinton and the gun-grabbers’ lies, Ryan agreed and announced there would be no vote on the legislation in the near future.
The Chicago Tribune reports:
“House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., said there is no plan for the House to act soon on the silencer bill, which a Republican-led House committee backed last month. The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina, said it would help hunters protect their hearing.
The silencer bill is “not scheduled right now. I don’t know when it will be scheduled,” Ryan said.”
The Republican Congress has already thrown their majorities into political jeopardy because of their failure to enact Donald Trump’s agenda.
If Paul Ryan and other establishment Republicans go squishy on guns and continue to cave to Hillary Clinton and the gun-grabbers, then their base will be depressed in the midterms and Nancy Pelosi will be the next Speaker of the House.
