Beshear said he would not promise that he would appoint a R to replace Mitch.

Proof the Universe is cruelly perverse is that McConnell lives and Rush Limbaugh doesn’t.

Seems the Senators believe that we want what THEY want. Talk about being arrogant. I just hope the pubs do what’s right and “retire” his sorry ...

The GOP has that empty suit Thune next in line.

Not much of an improvement.

It's Kentucky Law. He has no say. If memory serves, he gets presented with 3 R's and chooses from that. Of course that doesn't mean a D in an R jersey won't be the choice.

Likely you are right. McConnell is immensely wealthy due to his wife and her family connections and his own govt employment position which provides numerous opportunities to fleece the taxpaying American citizens. But. He also owes payback to those other opportunists who helped him along the way. You scratch my back and I will do likewise for you type of thing.

I don’t think it’s possible to have an unbreakable agenda and govern at the same time.

And what of Schumer’s future? Is he invulnerable to the deal falling apart? Isn’t this bill HIS baby?

What the bill really did was that 5000 illegal immigrants/day can come into the US. How long before that number jumped to 10,0000, 20,000...heck 35,000? Moreover, who is in charge of counting. Not anyone that I trust.

Here’s what most common sense people want: No illegal immigration. If you are here illegally, you get deported. Period.

Now, there are several ways to get into this country legally...which is fine. Should we increase numbers, move around this formula or that formula? Perhaps...that is something that will always be up for debate. Should we have a guest worker program. Probably. Also, up for congress to discuss.

But, one can never be here illegally...without status. Until we see that sort of thing take shape, the government will never get our support. If the government wants to earn our trust back, they would simply stop illegal immigration in its track. Once we see that for a year or so, then we can talk about real immigration laws.

McConnell polls at 3% nationally, one of the most hated men in America.
OUT OUT OUT ASAP !
He’s a democrat and always has been. Big time POS !
Why did it take so long for people to speak up?

The entire GOP is worthless. They conspire with the enemy Democrats to destroy Americas future. you all know it. You all see it. We need our own party a MAGA party. To hell with the GOP.
