Guess that's why Mitch is holding 257 bi-partisan bills from the house...doesn't want his toe-the-line senators to look batshit crazy

DITCH MITCH!
LOL. Any chance of ditching Mitch just went down the tubes. The Democrats in the House of Representatives are impeaching Trump because they hate him. Now the Senate will expose them for what they are, evil haters. Kentuckians know how a Democrat will vote and I doubt they will elect one as a senator.. Senator McConnell's seat is safe. .

Maybe Matt Bevin can run. I hear he pushed prison reform on his last days.
He paid back all those contributions he got. Get out of jail free cards for sale
Matt Bevin is catching as much hell from republicans as he is from democrats for these pardons... If I was a betting man. I would be willing to bet. That if a democrat governor had issued these same pardons. Democrats would be defending him. Democrats are well known to defend the indefensible.

Bevin should a pos and this is not suprising in the least. More things will come out about him in the future.

Figured you and all other libtards would be overjoyed with this....gets you more voters in the pool now that Beshithead has allowed felons to vote.

Such an ill-informed post that has no idea what it is even talking about. I should not be surprised by posts from the right but you continue to out do yourself.

You can deflect with if, ands, or butts pertaining to hypothetical party narrative. But IMO wrong is wrong no matter the party.
I'm betting there are voters still delusionally defending him.

This impeachment was a big gift for Mitch, I think he built up some bad karma but got some back due to the house democrats.

Then you must hate dan Crenshaw

You're a dumbass. Crenshaw is a gd hero and his service to our country is part of his makeup.

"While serving in the Helmand Province of Afghanistan in 2012, during his third deployment, he was injured by the detonation of an improvised explosive device; he lost his right eye and required surgery to save the vision in his left eye.[16] After the injury, he was deployed to his fourth and fifth tours of duty in Bahrain and South Korea.[16] As a Navy SEAL, he earned two Bronze Star Medals, the Purple Heart, and the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal with valor. He medically retired from military service in 2016 as a Lieutenant Commander.[16]"

I want the Democrats to spend 100's of millions of dollars to try to defeat Mitch. It is good for your economy and don't you need every penny to help out the old teachers..

Mitch is the most popular Senator in America and will go down as one of the greatest in Senate history after the way he handled the attempted coup to over throw the American President.

So spend your money Kentucky Democrats and why not go back to Matt Jones and let him jump back in. I want him on the stage with Mitch in a debate setting. I would buy a ticket and all of the proceeds can go to the old teachers union.

Excellent idea. Maybe they can also get more Soros money and donations from moonbats outside the state. Good for the economy and nobody GAF.

So in other words, its ok to use the military to get elected when it's someone in your political party. Got it.

How is this even an actual thread? It sure as hell won't be an actual race.
I think it got started when liberals were having wet dreams of Matt Jones running for the senate. They though UK fans would unite around him and run the most powerful man in the U.S. Senate out of office. Then Matt chickened out and their dreams went down the tubes.

Our hopes didn't go down the drain. The fact is even if conservatives want to hang onto Mitch's "low hanging fruit" (and we all know they do), Mitch is letting party politics prevent him from even doing the most basic of what he was elected to do. Currently, he has over 400 bills sitting on his desk that have passed the House. He refuses to even allow a vote on them. That is thumbing your nose at the Constitution and what our Founding Fathers envisioned for our government. I don't like Mitch. I don't think he gives a rats *** about the state of Kentucky. He is just thankful we are dumb enough to keep electing him. Take all of that out of the equation. I don't care about political parties at this point. No one should kill over 400 bills that have passed the House of Representatives. Those bills have been sponsored by both Republicans and Democrats. He should be ashamed and the sooner he is out of office the better off the entire country will be. I would say the same thing about a Democrat if he was doing what Mitch is doing. You can bet it will happen as soon as a Democrat is the Majority Leader of the Senate though. Mitch has opened that door wide enough for anyone to walk through it.

OK, Harry Reid, we know in your dotage you forget you spent your career as Senate Majority doing exactly what you describe above when the Republicans held the House.

Go back to hunting aliens or whatever it is you are doing these days.

Mitch McConnell is helping reshape the judiciary, along with two SCOTUS Justices at this point and waiting for RBG, and stopped Schiff and Pelosi’s ******** impeachment. I can assure you, at this point no one who is the least bit conservative cares how many ******** bills Nancy pelosi sends over to the senate and McConnell spikes.

McConnell earned my vote. And that’s coming from someone who used to argue it would have been a good thing for Grimes to take out McConnell (the search feature of the political thread doesn’t forget). I couldn’t have been more wrong.

You can say we’ll regret it when the Dems take the Senate, but thank Harry Reid. And it’s not like Dems give a **** about precedent or the law.

Just out of curiousity which of these are ******** bills (they all have Republican support in the house).

The Equality Act, which was introduced in March and passed in May, seeks to provide comprehensive anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ Americans in employment, education, federal funding, housing, public accommodations and more.

The Paycheck Fairness Act was introduced in January and passed in March. It includes provisions that would prohibit employers from asking about prospective employees’ salaries, forbid retaliation against employees who compare wages and mandate employers show that pay discrepancies are based on legitimate factors.

The renewal of the Violence Against Women Act was introduced in March and passed in April. One Democrat voted against it, while 33 Republicans broke party lines to back it.

Congress had allowed the act, which provides funding and grants for several programs that tackle domestic abuse, to lapse in February when it was left out of a spending bill ending a partial government shutdown.

The reauthorization includes everything in the original act and includes an expansion of a prohibition against firearm purchases for spouses or formerly married partners convicted of abuse or under a restraining order to include dating partners who were never legally married. The National Rifle Association came out against the act because of the clause.

Not to mention the bill that has passed with Republican support to enhance election security. Those are just a few examples of the bills that Mitch refuses to allow a vote on. Which of those are ********? The Violence against women act? The paycheck fairness act? I really would like to know.

Looks like you listed 4 bills that received a combined 49 republican votes in the house...and you think it’s an injustice that MM hasn’t brought them to the floor.
