Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Monday lauded House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-WY) in the wake of her vote to impeach former President Donald Trump, calling the congresswoman an “important leader” with the courage to act on “deep convictions.” “Liz Cheney is a leader with deep convictions and the courage to act on them,” McConnell said in a statement to CNN. “She is an important leader in our party and in our nation. I am grateful for her service and look forward to continuing to work with her on the crucial issues facing our nation.”

No Tutor Turtle, she's just a pathetic RINO, much like yourself, who is clueless as to what Joe and Jane America are really all about. She's been raised in the lap of luxury running with the in-crowd around the beltway. She's no more about Wyoming than AOC.

Under his "leadership" the Republican Senate FAILED the President, FAILED the people, FAILED in their duty, and LOST the Senate. Mitch needs to go.

Further proof that too many Republicans lack any understanding of tribal warfare. Would Nancy Pelosi speak that way publicly about some of her nuttier Dem colleagues? They have party discipline, and the Republicans do not.
Mitch, among other things you have violated what Ronald Reagan termed the 11th Commandment -- Thou shalt not speak evil of any fellow Republican.
Time for new Republican leadership in the Senate. Among other places.

Mitch we elected her to represent us over 70% of us voted for Trump. "These are the times that try men's souls." This simple quotation from Founding Father Thomas Paine's , not only describes the beginnings of the American Revolution, but also the Constitutional crisis we face today.
According to a recent poll 50% of voters believe the election is illegitimate, 68% of Republicans and 39% of Democrats.
Where is the support from the Wyoming Congressional Delegation, for a investigation into voter fraud in the 2020 election?
70.38% of Wyoming votes were cast for President Donald J. Trump. Were you not elected to represent Wyoming voters?
Perhaps the answer can be obtained if you follow the money.
According to published financial records Senator John Barrasso raised only 5.5% of his campaign funds during the last election cycle in Wyoming. The vast majority cane from corporations such as Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Amgen Inc, Pinnacle West Capital, Securities & Investment interests and Lobbyists.
Congressman Liz Cheney's Morgan Stanley, Castle Harlan Inc and Lawyers/Law Firms. Of the nearly $3000,000,OOO raised only 6.12% came from individual small donors.
Has our congressional delegation been bought and paid for by Corporate interests ?
If so, the problem could be easily solved if you could only donate to those you could vote for.

Shame on anyone who still thinks the Republican Party can be reformed. How many times does your wife have to screw the garbage man before you throw her to the curb along with the can?
I’m an independent. Former Democrat. 26 years sober. Never have I or will i register Republican. Republican leadership is only their because you voted for them. The RNC only gives you Rinos to choose from so what the F do you expect? And if you think that primary shot is going to work? Really??
It will take one down here and one down there, but it will be like Wackamo and they will prevail.
New Party Now!

Mitch and Liz have about as much care and concern for their constituents as they do any menial lackey who serves them. They are wholly bought and paid for by donors and only care about what they can do for them. It is an incestuous little game in which they all scratch each other’s back at the expense of the American taxpayer. Washington is the place your money goes to keep this corrupt game going. This is how the most venerable deliberative body in our government works. It is not because of love of country or respect for the people who elect them. It is to line their pockets while making decisions that benefit whomever is willing to pay them. Cheney and McConnell know the deal, protect the deal, and actually love the deal. It is the only entity that captures their loyalty. These self-serving corrupticans are the reason we are in this dangerous situation today.
Everyday that President Trump was in the White House was a constant reminder of how corrupt they were. He knew who they were, how they got there and why they stayed there. Of course, they wanted him gone and now will work desperately to erase everything good he has done for the American people and anyone who would dare still support him. Mitch may do or say the right thing from time to time, but you can be sure that he is bought lock, stock and barrel and intends to keep it that way. He also intends to protect Liz another vulture picking the carcass of this country clean just like her daddy taught her. This is the state of the political class in this country today, corrupt, arrogant, and confident in their power to play the game despite who sits in the Oval Office.

McConnell never liked Trump. McConnell, Cheney, Collins, McCarthy, Romney, Flake, the Bushes, The McCains, Sasse are the problem in the Republican Party, not Trump. Mitch lost the senate because he was tooo weak. 74 million people voted for Trump, how many voted for Cheney & McConnell? One thing for sure these fake republicans selecting Biden over Trump tells you all you need to know. The American people are witnessing the poor leadership of Biden & the fake republicans are not criticizing Biden but trashing Trump....unbelievable...like Romney said ...it’s Trumps party so get out of the way & let him run It , his way. The Republican Party was always run by country club elites ...now they can’t handle a real leader. Exactly what are the Bushes , Cheney’s & McConnells going to do when they run Trump out if the party?? Check out the Big $$$ & lobbyist $$$$ given to the ones trashing Trump. Trump has small donors they have Big Corporations

"Liz Cheney is a leader with deep convictions and the courage to act on them,”
As great as that my sound, it is the sort of thinking that explains why "The Stupid Party" aka the GOP, is full of RINOS! If she is to lvr by that high standard then she should then go and establish her own political party. She has no right to use the GOP and its and its electoral agenda to secure election and then abandon both the loyalty she morally and ethically owes to the Party, and even more so the voters who supported the Party's electoral agenda, to further her own perosnal deep convictions. The honorable thing to do when your own deep convictions clash with those of the Party is to resign from and the party and the position you were elected to by its voters, and then stand for the election for your own replacement om your personal agenda and deep convictions and see how far you get.!

The pro gay infiltration of the Republican Party during the Bush years manifested right here. Christians who voted for Trump and know which bathroom to use at the airport are now extremists, as Karl Rove advised, second generation government loving, want to take back the driver’s seat.
Crossroads was established to block the most recent influx of populist conservatives from national office.
They think they can wait us out.

Re#2. Ummmmn the vast majority of gays know which bathroom to use, and the vast majority are not gender confused. You don't hear about conservative gays for the same reason you rarely hear about conservative blacks. It doesn't fit the narrative and there is always some group that purports to speak for all of them.

Why doesn't this surprise me. When the Republicans retake the Senate in '22 serious consideration must be given to ousting the Turtle. My guess is his behavior in the coming two years will make the task easier.

If most Republican Senators are not RINOs then how did a RINO get elected to head the Senate Republicans? If Kentucky knew Mitch was a RINO when they elected him then why do they complain he is a RINO now? If Cheney and Romney are not only RINOs, but also carpetbaggers, why did Republicans vote them in? If voting for the lesser of two evils is the answer, then why complain about the evil you voted in?

We were so wrong to call Mitch the Turtle. He is more accurately a cross between a Weasel and a Snake. He and his kind have splintered off from the Grand Old Party and become the Snake-Weasel Party, I heard the Bush family has joined en masse.

The plus with McConnell is that he was/able to get important things passed, e.g. conservative judges under Trump. The minus is that he is a swamp creature loving the old status quo ("we know all; trust us"). I used to admire Liz Chaney but no more...........

As to poster # 5, McConnell and Graham et al. fought like demons to keep the Republicans Senate candidates winning against Marxists in Georgia, and it was my beloved Trump (yes, I voted for him and would probably do so again) who sunk the Senate for us because of his egotistical need to prove the election was fraudulent. We KNOW that, but we also knew Georgia was our line in the sand, and without even ONE of those seats we can't fight Biden.......Trump showed up at the very last moment, spent most of his Georgia speech talking about the stolen election (just as he is now re: fighting Impeachment) and convinced enough Republicans outside of Atlanta not to vote at all, cutting off our noses to spite our faces. You can blame Mitch and others all you want, but THIS is on Trump!

Not for nothing, Trump didn't lose Georgia. It was stolen just as the presidential election was stolen. If you can steal a presidential election, in broad daylight, arrogantly, triumphantly with absolutely zero consequence, then stealing some little senatorial election ain't nothin'.
The traitorous McConnell and Miss Lindsey didn't work for us, the American people, or even their constituents, they worked to win the Georgia seats for THEIR MAJORITY position, with the big offices, and the power, and the staff and everything else. Don't ever delude yourself that those two worked for anyone but themselves. Everyday Trump came into the Oval, with every waking moment, that man worked for US and the United States. I would vote for him again in a heartbeat. Hey, and I would even switch back to being a Democrat so I could vote multiple times, in multiple states.
McConnell has to go, but we on Lucianne have been saying that for years. Yeah, he got those judges approved, but that is sheer process. In government, the people that know how to get things done, move from point A to point B master the processes. And that's what ole Mitch knows how to do. But allegiance to this country? That went a long time ago. He needs to go.

That's our boy. But what does Mitch the Weasel know about convictions and courage? He's also slamming Majorie Taylor Greene's "loony lies," saying she's a "cancer" on the GOP, which shows why the powers that be let him keep his power.
