Yall should be asking Mitch McConnell (@senatemajldr) how he can fast track a Supreme Court Justice but cant get a relief bill through for the 20-30 million unemployed, the 1 in 5 small businesses that have closed and the millions getting evicted since rent relief has run out.

Over 200k dead while McConnell & Senate GOP block a coronavirus relief bill for 134 days, legislation to restore Voting Rights Act for 295 days & legislation to prevent foreign election interference for 338 days. If only they found time to care about Americans more than judges.

So disgusting that GOP can't pass the coronavirus relief bill in 134 days, but they can jam a SC judge nominee through in 30 days.

(25,983 posts)1. That's just three
of the hundreds of pieces of legislation Mitch McConnell has refused to bring to the Senate floor. It should be a crime for him or any Majority Leader of the Senate to sabotage the running of the country in this way.
