‘Blatant overreach’: McConnell rips Biden private sector vax mandate

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) slammed the Biden administration’s “illegal” vaccine-or-test mandate for large employers on the Senate floor Wednesday as Republicans prepared to force a vote on a resolution to overturn the directive.

In his remarks, McConnell praised COVID-19 vaccines as “modern medical miracles” and noted that he had received a booster shot.

“I’ve encouraged Kentuckians and all Americans to take full advantage,” he said. “I’ve recorded public service announcements, I am a survivor of childhood polio, I’ve watched vaccines obliterate polio in our country in my entire lifetime. Trust me, there is no bigger proponent of vaccination than I am.

McConnell should be the poster boy for repealing the 17th amendment.

Turtle said “modern medical miracles”...

That is a howler—the guy is beyond clueless.

He is dangerously stupid.

McConnell isn’t folding. He’s playing for the other team: Team China. Every GOP Senator who voted to make China Mitch their leader is party to his crimes against our American Heritage.

Wuhan ain’t polio, Mitch and these vaccines ain’t polio vaccines. I didn’t take my polio sugar cube to only get polio in one leg. I took it to avoid it all together.
These are mere treatments at best.

Apples and oranges, Mitch. With polio, it actually WAS a vaccine. With Covid ... not so much.

This medicine they are using as a vaccine wears of after a few months. This vaccination plan is DOOMED to failure.

Our son who works in the medical field pointed this out to us at the very beginning.

The MSM complicit in not stating what this is , a potential preventative, not a vaccine which in many cases can be a cure...

I for one bear the original Tattoo of the Polio vaccine....

We conservatives tried that last time with Matt Bevin but failed. Bevin was then elected governor, but he made the "mistake" of trying to fix Kentucky's pension system, which ranks near the bottom of the 50 states. The teachers didn't want the system fixed and so now we have Comrade Beshear.

Mitch is not easy to take down.

Bill Clinton's gal certainly didn't make it happen either. Mitch won 57/40
