McConnell needs to go. Move into an adult care facility with Pedo Jo. The days of the DemonRATS screwing Americans while the GOP stands back and watches them do it are over.

Post 6: Timely reminder indeed.

Mitch McConnell is the chairman of the United States Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense. He's going to be in charge of the appropriations to the Defense Department.

That's why McConnell voted No, to send Hegseth a message that anything he wants to do in the Defense Department will have to go through McConnell to get it funded.

👍👍Go get’em Pete!

As far as I am concerned, Mitch was in on the Biden mental coverup. He has known Biden for many years and knew of Biden’s decline from the moment he announced his run for the 2020. He protected Joe and himself instead of the country.

That was then. This is now.
If Sen Thune wants to keep leading, he ought to act like a leader and show that lack of loyalty has consequences.
He will only have to do it once (maybe twice or thrice to cover Lisa and Susan’s perfidy)

Who here is surprised that McConnell voted against Hegseth. He controls and has power by backroom deals, whispers and innuendo. He needs to constantly taunted by our President.

Mitch was

[Jumper]

His Chicom party wife majes him no less a traitor than the Chicom diamond clutching Hunter & Joe.

Ask again his sources of income... and lay bare his unofficial email addresses by which he operates.

Before long Mitch is going to need something.

” ... to send Hegseth a message that anything he wants to do in the Defense Department will have to go through McConnell to get it funded ... “

Hopefully the big changes won’t cost a lot of money.

Mitch McConnell is the chairman of the United States Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense.

I thought Thune removed him from that position. I read it yesterday somewhere.

[aynrandfreak]

I hope he follows your path.

[brownsfan]

“If Mitch has any committee positions, Sen. Thune should pull each and every one of them...”

I suspect McConnell and Thune are on the same team.

[GizzyGirl]

Thankful that Hegseth made it through without him!! But as much as I don't appreciate his opinion/vote, I will always be grateful he stood strong and we don't have Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court!

I am not sure, at all, how a person gets around getting shot in the head.

It would certainly change my perspective.

I think of Trump as a man of action, though he walks a narrow path.

[butlerweave]

This is how it will be for the next 4 years with these contrary traitors

[OKSooner]

Mitch is Thooon’s daddy.

[Bob434]

Way to be an ass on the way out the door there mitch!

Lost in this story is the facade that Fetterman is a "different kind of Democrat." He voted against Hegseth, after sending out signals he was on board with Pete.

He was receiving a number of positive comments here on Free Republic, some posters need to "revise and extend their remarks."
