Republicans can't legislate, but when Democrats do, Mitch has to kill it. It's what a soul-less partisan asshole does.

Good on Obama for the reveal.

With Mitch for 5 minutes behind closed doors and discuss this further for 5 minutes alone. Any suggestions as to who?

I’ve never been comfortable with jokes that ridicule the intelligence of someone in another state or country.
But come on... how long can you let these snake oil salesmen fill their pockets and keep you and your state at the very bottom of the barrel in terms of poverty and general neglect, and not wonder about your intelligence.

If we don't get the Senate back, we must play hardball with this jerk. Veto every single thing he wants until he agrees to play ball. The GOP may very well have the majority, but they won't have enough for veto overrides. This guy needs to be neutered.

As long as Moscow Mitch is Majority Leader, he doesn't have to put anything up for a vote (certainly, very little legislation will originate out of the Senate). He will have an effective veto on anything that Biden wants to do. And unless Mitch The Bitch gets exactly what he wants as concessions from Biden/Schumer/Pelosi, not one single bill will advance in the Senate. You can also be sure no judges will get a hearing for at least two years.

They most vote in the two Dem senators in order to vote McConnell out of his leadership position.
