The Dems and communist China have discovered they can use cooperations to do their bidding. Things they could never get done by legislation.
This. Some combination of social media, social justice and cooperate "responsibility" has culminated in the transfer of power from government to a blue checked mob.
Unclear how to unwind that.

Republicans who pushed Trump out and refused to support him are knowingly in support of the plan.
It's not an accident that when they're in power they present themselves as helpless and when they're not in power they are trying really hard, but ultimately helpless.

I agree with him but coming from Mitch those words are just empty words trying to pander. Nobody believes he isn’t bought and paid for by those big corporations. This is just his way to signal to them he needs donations and he will quiet down.
Dems are mad because the new voting law will likely flip Georgia back red. We need it in Arizona too. With Florida, NC, Ohio and Iowa now in the red column that gets us very close

McConnell is a uni-party cuck who can GTFO.

Like McConnell cares. He gets his kick backs and complains every now and then so his base sees him in the news.
So he doesn't care at all.

Neither do we, so good. Let's rub this clown's image from history.

That was me, and yes, it couldn't be more timely.
Paddy Chayefsky opposed McCarthyism not because he was a Soviet sympathizer, but because he knew witchhunts and purity tests always find their scapegoats and victims, and he saw then how the corporate wing of government was already identifying the target (Jews) and naming and shaming them with a moniker (Zionists) - all that was left was the purge.
Name a more prescient and concise metaphor than the end of Network: a multinational media conglomerate paying black supremacist terrorists to murder a populist demagogue on live TV in a bid to increase their ratings.

I thought he was going to retire so he could spend more time with his wife, Chairman Xi.

Uhhhh, no. He opposed McCarthy because any exploration of communism is a threat to his people. It's literally right in front of your dumb face.

Mitch gearing up to announce the government will now destroy the right to political speech. Idiots will rally and support him.
I don't follow McConnell's every word so pardon me if I've missed something, but I'm not connecting the dots you have.
I'm critical of the Right, but not just its leaders. I think rank/file conservatives have proven to be monumental pussies that last twelve months. So I get the criticism of McConnell, but a question - in your view, outside of DeSantis, who should the Right rally around?

Ha ha. Thanks. I’m a bad speller, but autocorrect doesn’t help either.

Meant to fire up the GOP base, but he won’t follow through, unfortunately.
