The House approved a bipartisan gun deal Friday, all but cementing the biggest reform package passed by Congress in nearly 30 years.

Legislation first crafted and passed by the Senate now moves to President Joe Biden, who urged Congress Thursday to "finish the job" so he could sign it into law.

Unlike the Senate vote Thursday, when 15 Republicans joined Democrats to pass the gun deal, the House voted mostly along party lines.

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy and Minority Whip Steve Scalise encouraged their members to vote against the legislation after the conservative House Freedom Caucus asked them to whip against it.

House Democrats have a 220-210 margin and ultimately passed the gun deal 234-193. Fourteen Republicans voted in favor.

  6. Does anybody else notice that Joe has his caregiver standing next to him while he signs his name. I think that’s probably because his dementia might cause him to sign it as president Harris.

  7. I love how the term bipartisan is used every time they pass something with the exact same 10-14 RINOs help.
    Nobody with any sense can honestly believe this is a bipartisan bill, again.

  8. You know what would be beneficial to women’s reproductive health? Teach them how to keep their legs crossed.

  9. No matter how stately they try to make him in the thumbnails he still looks , walks and talks like a senile old man. Sad sad sad
