Whoa!
I was so discouraged reading the headline as I thought McConnell was one of the sort-of good ones. The media is going full force in lie mode.
The headline is a fake. I take back my former comment.
Maybe it can be taken out of breaking news.
And let me say National Review is a treasure.
Much prayer is necessary.
The best way to ensure that the media doesn't "spin" or create outright falsehood is to not give them a chance. In other words, make the original statement SO blunt, so un-nuanced, so straightforward, that any spin would make that media outlet a laughingstock. See my comment

“The headline is a fake”
I said as much when this was posted a couple days ago.
