If Mitch has any committee positions, Sen. Thune should pull each and every one of them, replace Mitch with MAGA senators, and relegate Mitch to the back bench.

I’d like to see it happen, but Thune kissed McConnell’s ring to get the job.

[Political Junkie Too]

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.

“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.

[OKSooner]

Mitch is Thooon’s daddy.

[OrioleFan]

Wasn’t Mitch put in charge of the Rules Committee by Thune. If I were President Trump, I’d call Thune and demand McConnell be replaced and be put in charge of cleaning the cloakroom.

I have a feeling Mitch is nearing his Nessun Dorma crescendo.

“Mitch McConnell seen waddling over to go shake hands with the Democrats after voting ‘NO’ for Pete Hegseth’s confirmation.“

Yes they should strip this treasonous prick of every committee but they won’t.

Better to work with him and get whatever we can out of him — and then primary him. Trying to punish him before the primary or his retiremet may make some of us feel better, but it won’t get bills enacted.
