Wow. Even the retarded Turtle heard the yelling of the masses.
Next he will blame others.
Talk about stupid. He knew this wasn’t going to fly.
Why did it take Trump to wake up the normally coward Republicans? And in 2015.
Idiots like Mitch haven’t learned in 40 years.
LOL
Oxymoron. Decent Christian men like Pence? Sessions?
Arrogance
I’ll be Captain Obvious - THERE IS NO REASON FOR A NEW BILL! ENFORCE THE THOUSANDS OF EXSISTNG LAWS!
Let’s face it. Thus bill was an amnesty bill. Greedy slave masters are too cheap to pay decent money to have their yards mowed.
Sick evil human scum.
The governor of Kentucky is a hard-left Demonrat. He was re-selected in 2022 and is in the position until the beginning of 2027. If Senator McConnell wanted to be replaced by a Republican, he could have campaigned for the Republican candidate for governor in 2022.
Because for this type of bill it takes 60 votes to invoke cloture and require an up-or-down vote. That’s the way it has been in the Senate for most of its existence. Until the 1970s, it took 2/3 vote, or 67 Senators. Just imagine getting 67 votes for a controversial bill in 2024.
Unless the entire Uniparty votes as a bloc, it fails.
Before that, have term limits for government employees. I figure 4 years is already too much of a burden.
The effort to pass the Senate’s bipartisan border bill collapsed Tuesday after Republicans backed away from the package, effectively punting on the issue until after November and infuriating Democrats in the process.
Top Senate Republicans said they would block the chamber from beginning to consider the bill, with more than half the conference declaring their outright opposition. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) had planned to bring the $118 billion supplemental to the floor Wednesday.

The Governor of Oklahoma, OTOH, is a Republican. Know what I'm sayin'?
I like Rand Paul, too. Occasionally, I disagree, but; few agree 100% with anyone.
