Mitch McConnell calls out the Democrat for their violations of Senate procedures as well as taking advantage of Christine Ford's request for confidentialty.

McConnell starts at 2:46 and goes on for 12 minutes taking the Democrats apart point by point.

If they broke Senate Rules, Suspend ALL Privileges and REMOVE them from ALL Committee Assignments.

It is your DUTY!

Good speech - laid out he facts well - Kavanaugh needs all the public support he can get and to feel he’s still got the backing of ‘pubs and Trump.....

Feinstein and/or staff have violated Senate Rule 29(5), which entail expulsion as a penalty. A Special Council seems in-order to conduct an investigation into Senator Feinstein and staff.

Outstanding!! A fine, spirited, on-point defense of Judge Kavanaugh and a long overdue condemnation of the vile tactics the communist bastards have deployed to destroy the U.S. Well done, Senator McConnell!

He addressed “Mr. President” several times. Interesting that Vice President Pence was in the session today as President of the Senate (the VP’s only constitutional duty). He is probably there in case a vote was called and he needed to be present to break a tie.

Turtle occasionally stands up. I’ll give him that.

The best thing about this floor speech is that he gives Ford a tiny opportunity to paint herself as a victim of Democrat operatives. It might be the only way for her to escape with a shred of her reputation intact.

[[No, if they get to destroy the entire United States and all it stands for, their mission will have been accomplished.]]

Like Carlson said the other night, democrats can’t stand not being in power, and if they can’t be in power, they are going to burn down everything so noone can be- many democrats are nothing but friggin children who can’t stand losing!

Where is the spineless, feckless pushover Charles Grassley in all this? He is the guy that caused this mess, and I am yet o hear he even a word from him defending the honor of the man he has allowed to be smeared beyond belief.

How many more examples of barbaric rat behavior do Freepers need before they join the call to invoke Article V to repeal the 17th Amendment?

Rush was mocking McConnell today. Even called him “the turtle.” Well deserved, IMO.
