The tweet Midler shared was in response to an account “Duty To Warn,” which wrote, “The NRA conference is THIS Friday. In Houston, Texas. Nice timing, a**holes. Speakers include Ted Cruz and Gov. Greg Abbott, who boasts an A+ rating from the same NRA. Are they worried? No.”
“The conference area is a ‘no gun’ zone. They’re brazen, greedy, and shameless, not stupid,” it added.
The NRA’s annual meeting is slated to kick off Friday in Houston, Texas, just days after a gunman killed 19 children and two adults in an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas.
