The priest is his son, who also led the funeral mass for his father.

I am so touched by this picture, which shows the most powerful person on earth submitting to the power of God.

May God grant America mercy as a result.

As dirty and violent the dems and protesters are now. Mitch better learn to play with “no mercy”. We are in for the Fight of our lives. THIS is what we fought for, THIS is our moment to turn our country back to Freedom, Strength and decency. We and our kids depend on this time, we will not get another chance.

Here’s the thing:

The ‘Rats’ are not the problem; the traitors among our own are the problem.

Importantly, this message is only to McConnell indirectly. It is directly to conservatives, who are all in favor of it, to connect with their senators, who *should* be in favor of it, and *they* will connect with McConnell.

It’s not really “political pressure” to do it this way, but to let them all know that it is “the will of the people”.

And it is also a message to the Democrats. If the Republican senators can keep it together and go nuclear if they have to, then the Democrats are effectively shut out of power in the senate until the next elections, where they are already deeply in trouble.

11 Democrat senators in particular are in red states. If President Trump and the RNC decide to send in big money to defeat them, they will have to spend 2 or 3 times as much to save themselves.

“Rename it the “Harry Reid Option”, to forever memorialize that dope.” I second that! The Reid Option it is.

How about 'the dingy gambit'?

He’s Justice Scalia’s son and there are lots of his talks on Youtube. Phenomenal man and very much in his father’s vein.

I'm listening to Franken right now and he needs his mouth smashed so he has a REAL lisp.

The president is a jerk and wrong to allow this tirade against Sen Cruz.

I understand WHAT Franken is doing, but I have heard, many times, a speaker impugn another in the third person where a name is not dropped and Franken is SUCH a weakling ... he's totally incapable of speaking intelligently.
