A day doesn't go by without right-leaning websites, newspapers, and commentators becoming giddy about taking back Congress in the midterms. In their view, it's just a question of how big the Red Wave will be. They cite increased Republican registrations in purple or blue cities and states. They hype how many traditional Democrat constituencies such as Hispanics and Blacks are switching to Republican.
But what is the purpose of taking back Congress if we have most of the same spineless leadership as before? In 2017–2018, President Trump was in the White House, and we had both houses of Congress. Shouldn't the results have been much better? Will things vastly improve if a 2023 or 2025 Republican Congress is sworn in and Rep. Kevin "which way the wind is blowing" McCarthy is House speaker? Or if Sen. Mitch "Donate to Liz Cheney's campaign" McConnell remains Senate leader? Sure, they decide the agenda and which bills reach the floor, but McCarthy and McConnell are the same Establishment Republicans who have always given MAGAs heartburn.
A walk down memory lane
McConnell was probably watching MSNBC and didn't know that, on January 6, 2021, President Donald Trump urged his followers at the D.C. rally to go to the U.S. Capitol and "peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard." Trump repeatedly tweeted the same message even as some Capitol Police officers held doors open for MAGAs to enter the building.
Yet days after the mêlée and without any proof, McConnell went onto the Senate floor and accused President Trump of being "practically and morally responsible" for January 6 events at the U.S. Capitol. He called Trump's actions a "disgraceful — disgraceful — dereliction of duty."

These RINOs are truly disgusting swamp dwellers. They all need to be primaried.
Only God can fix this mess.
Given a rino take back they will stills give joe didn’tget elected biden the kid glove treatment that obumer received and all those s juxtaposed on how President Trump was and still have a treated just makes me want to scream. Damn a democrat.
And damn a so called smart phone
Agreed!
This doesn’t get fixed without total repentance, and real Reformation II.
And even Gods forgiveness, there are natural and hard fought spiritual consequences for mocking God, worshiping self (humanism), and wiping out 75 million little people.
But still the only way...
There is no political fix to pervasive human depravity.
Nonetheless, we still do what is right at the ballot box, and fight like crazy to have a real election.
No, those who lie, cheat and hate American’s America should not be safe but today it is the opposite.
Amen.
First we need to repeal RCV wherever it’s in use and go back to dumb voting machines.
It's not flipping blue seats red that should be our main focus.
The Dems could not have won anything had it not been for RINO-controlled state legislatures handing it to them on a platter by rolling over on the cheat-by-mail-in ballots and drop boxes and turning a blind eye to all manner of fraud and allowing the "counting" to go on for nearly a week until the Vegetable overtook Trump.
RINOs are the reason for the woke clown world we must now endure.
RINOs are the reason a new left wing hack sits on SCOTUS for what should have been a Trump nomination.
The embedded spies of the enemy were outed in 2020. They must be ousted in the primaries. This is the only way to get our country back.
This is what the Left fears most -- not the coming Mid-Terms, but the republican primaries. The prospect of their embedded spies soon being replaced with MAGA people has them unhinged (more than usual).
“Without a MAGA Tsunami in November”
Methinks that should read; “Without a MAGA Tsunami in the primaries”.
But,
Don’t underestimate The Republicans ability to f*ck things up
Don’t fret. Soon we’ll have Senator Oz…
.
True dat.
This I agree with.
The problem with the red wave is that we will get a new batch of rinos replacing the ones that have been purged….
We will get MAGA folks too but we will get new rinos as part of the wave too
Not going to get that by re-electing Assistant Democrats like Amnesty Senators Rubio and Hoeven.
145 GOP House members voted for Liz Cheney in Feb of 2021.
ALL Bush League Republicans MUST GO!
Teerm limits are essential for all of Congress but leadership positions need to have similar limits.
I don’t think McConnell could say enough to get me to vote for him. We would be better off without this RINO. He has been more trouble for our country than he is worth.
