Alaska GOP Censures Mitch McConnell For Meddling In Race Between Two Republicans
The Federalist ^ | 10/24/2022 | TRISTAN JUSTICE

Posted on 10/25/2022 7:08:09 AM PDT by grimalkin

The Alaska GOP formally censured Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell over the weekend for the Kentucky lawmaker’s interference in the Arctic Senate race between two Republicans.

On Monday, the state Republican central committee announced the results of an overwhelming vote to admonish the national party leader over attack ads against Kelly Tshibaka, the candidate endorsed by the Alaska GOP who is challenging incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski. The final vote came to 49-8 in favor of a resolution censuring McConnell and the minority leader’s Senate Leadership Fund (SLF) which has pumped more than $5 million into the race to defend a key McConnell ally in the upper chamber.

“No one from Alaska wants big shots from the Lower 48 meddling in our elections, and they certainly don’t want D.C. Republicans lying about the candidate who’s been endorsed by the Alaska GOP,” Mary Ann Pruitt, an advisor to Tshibaka, told The Federalist. “Alaska Republicans are telling Mitch McConnell to stay out of it. But this goes to show you who Lisa Murkowski is aligned with. She’s wearing the jersey of the Washington establishment of Biden, Pelosi, and McConnell, and she’s not on Alaska’s team.”

Turkey-neck McTurtle is an a-hole. We should have an age maximum and a term maximum.

This is good to see. The red-controlled states need to push back against the national uniparty on all fronts.

Yeah, and the 80 year-old in his final term won’t give a rat’s a$$.

He can’t be removed from his position by the people (of Kentucky, certainly not Alaska), and he won’t be removed from his position by his fellow senators (most of which he’s hand-picked).

And this is how power works. They arrange things so that they can do what they want with no comeuppance (see Lisa Murkowski)

IMO McConnell’s career is over after this fiasco. He’s really showing his arse.

Mitch knows that if Murkowski loses, he’s toast.

Sounds like the perfect plan.

Mitch would rather the GOP stay the minority party than lose his leadership position.

The man sounds like he is gargling marbles when he speaks.

Anywho, Mitch is about Mitch. A grifter like the Clintons with a different style.

That what is really important, right? Mitch McConnell’s position in the senator. To hell with the country.

I despise these people.
