Ukraine has grown increasingly anxious over delays to new U.S. aid, with Kyiv's leader, Volodymyr Zelensky, warning Russia could advance to "big cities."
I sure remember Moscow Mitch the Bitch getting upset about being called Moscow Mitch after that but being proud of being called ‘Reaper’ for denying any bills brought forward to get anything done around that timeframe, yeah.
He got called Moscow Mitch before that - it was when he threatened to throw the government into lockdown if Obama revealed the extent of russian hacking and interference in the 2016 election.
He traded his duty to the Constitution in for a drunk rapist and an evangelical nut to sit on the Supreme Court.
How did AmericansKentuckians vote him back in after that?
Voter suppression and some interesting statistical anomalies between the official results and exit polling, favoring the Republicans (that Democrats didn’t have much interest in calling attention to, for fear of lending credence to Trump’s claims of the election being stolen).
+17 point swing in several Republican elections. McConnell, that super obviously gay guy from South Caroline (Graham, I remembered!), that milquetoast hag in Maine. All +17 point swings to clinch the win. Something that’s statistically less likely to happen than my hand phase shifting through a table. Sure, it’s technically possible, but we all know Republicans can’t win without cheating. Why do you think they scream voter fraud nonstop? Because if they’re doing it, then the Democrats HAVE to be doing it?
It’s telling, all I’m saying. When someone tells you who they are …believe them.

The GOP, by their own admission= Domestic Terrorists.
The Pentagon warned before the Supreme Court that Citizens United passing would open up our politicians to overwhelming external influenc, compromising them. Republicans stole the white house in 2000, pushed Citizens thru once Dubya set his court to proper, and that set up today’s final shit spiral.
I’d bet everything I own that America doesn’t survive the greed of its rich. Oh wait, we all are betting that…whether we realize it or not.
Speaking on Tuesday at the Council on Foreign Relations, Biden said the Obama administration sought a united front to dispel concerns that going public with such accusations would be seen as an effort to undermine the legitimacy of the election.
However, McConnell "wanted no part of having a bipartisan commitment saying, essentially, ‘Russia’s doing this. Stop,’ " he said.
At that point, Biden added, he felt that “the die had been cast” and that “this was all about the political play.”
If someone wrote a story with Republicans doing that prior to 2016 no editor would ever publish it because it’s so ham-fisted. Like a political plot laid out in a comic for actual elementary school children.
Remember that time a group of Republican politicians visited Moscow on July 4th?

Moscow Mitch.
Wait, actually? What the hell is the reasoning behind that? How did Americans vote him back in after that?

One would hope.

I remember at the time wondering why that wasn’t a bigger deal.
