Morning Joe just showed the photo of the tombstones with Amy McGrath's name

on one of them that Moscow Mitch posted on his twitter account just hours after the El Paso shootings.

Scarborough asked why Mitch won't call the Senate back to vote on gun legislation passed by the House but blocked by McConnell from being voted upon in the Senate.

He then went after Trump for the abject hypocrisy of the speech that he read yesterday.

Good. Name them and shame them.

Did you hear the expert say Trump has trouble getting his mouth around the words when forced to be contrite? Perfect description.

I was restricted on Twitter Sunday for the following tweet:


So the president offered the full help of the FBI in El Paso. Is this the same FBI he’s been trashing nonstop for two years saying they’re incompetent and unable to do their jobs because of political bias? The same agency he’s slammed relentlessly he’s now sending to El Paso?

I refuse to remove the tweet as they demand to unlock my account, fuck them. They cyber-messed with the wrong fucking cyber guy.

That Tombstone up? That is a real threat. And Trump is worse every day.

I do not post but would suggest a boycott of Twitter and Facebook.

They banned me for life for calling Tomi Lauren a City lamp post ape appendage after she said, her "thanksgiving highlight was gassing migrant's". Yet trump gets away with constant riling of murderers. See a pattern here.

"hurt himself" so he is working from home. Too chicken to show up in public since the chants at that rally in Kentucky. He must feel the heat. Not as safe as DC where he rules his roost. Post just how much each member of the political class received from the NRA, Russia and other countries. Follow the money, it holds the key to WHY certain legislation gets shelved. Moscow Mitch has way too much power. The decisions as to which bills get voted on should rest with more than just one traitorous gop slimeball.

It's put on by a Diocese there in far, far Western Kentucky. They've been serving up fresh veggies from the garden and smoked pork and mutton for over 100 years. It's the premiere political event east of the Mississippi. Speeches, great food and a lot of yelling and razzing of candidates of both parties. To walk the gauntlet at Fancy Farm is a show that you are serious about your candidacy. Serious police presence is a necessity. Shit gets crazy there. Let me find a link: https://www.whas11.com/video/news/politics/kentucky-politics-heat-up-at-fancy-farm-picnic/417-fe24488c-aae0-4bcd-a0d5-37a05fa66c76
There is more, and I recommend checking it out, if ya want to look it up. Craziest fucking political rally outside of Trump's Nazi rallies. The town's population is something like 600. The one time I went we were there at daybreak.
