I am fucking sick and God Damned tired of NOT hearing that Mitch McConnell

Isn’t doing his job to protect life and liberty of innocent children
Isn’t doing his job to Protect the process of democracy
Isn’t doing his job to Carry out the role of the senate
Isn’t doing his job to Vote on bills passed by the House
Isn’t doing his job to Exercise oversight of the child king
Isn’t doing his job to uphold and defend the constitution
Isn’t doing his job.

He hides in his turtle shell so the media doesn’t talk about him much. Where’s the Headliners show on McConnell? Why isn’t there a report every day on where he is, what he’s doing, what bills he won’t allow to the senate floor, what his specific strategy appears to be on specific popular issues, what has been the consequence of his approach to health care, the environment, minimum wage, worker safety, etc.

What he had for breakfast, where he gets his money...

NOT just about how powerful or clever he was to usurp the power of the president to fill judicial vacancies, which only makes ill-informed rightwingers like him more. Expose all the other stuff he is doing every day to harm ordinary American people.

It can only be seen as abetting and aiding our enemies who have sworn to destroy our government. If Benedict Arnold was guilty of treason for a failed plot and hung as a traitor what should we do in regard to successful one?

With double negatives, it might look like he's saying something, when he means something else.

It will take her a while to expose it all, but I'm looking forward to it.

He is the evil one, for sure, and a good example of...give him an inch and he'll take a mile. I'm sure he has ill-gotten gains.

Of the GOP in our 2020 campaign. The more light you shine on Millionaire Mitch, the more you loathe him.

McConnell has done more damage to our Democracy than The Orange One could begin to think of.

Corporations exist to earn profits, first and foremost. Holding politicians accountable only happens when it doesn't potentially interfere with earnings or access. Once in a while, a courageous reporter's story will get printed, although not nearly often enough to seriously challenge the pervasive corruption.

to talk more about the fact he won’t bring bills to the floor and also mention the media rarely if ever covers this fact. Talk about it several times a week. Maybe that way the media will start to talk more about it.
