McConnell Remains Silent on Biden’s
Speech Attacking MAGA Movement

Original Article

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) remains silent regarding President Joe Biden’s speech that labeled “MAGA Republicans” a threat to America. Five days after the speech, McConnell has not publicly remarked on Biden’s rhetoric. His office did not respond to several requests for comment from Breitbart News that spanned several days. Biden gave the remarks on Thursday outside of a red-lit Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and targeted millions of “MAGA Republicans,” stating they “represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our Republic.” “MAGA Republicans do not respect the constitution,” he said.(Snip)“They promote authoritarian leaders and they fan the flames of political violence

Comments:

Give China Mitch a break. He's in his money room counting his ill-gotten gains, and to the extent that his dim staff cares to defend us, it will take them a bit more time to craft the type of zinger Tweet that satisfies the electorate.

Mitch "MultiUseless" McConnell has probably been told not to write a stern letter. Chuck S. keeps him on a short leash. Mitch is more concerned about the many swamp creatures lickin' his boots.

Why would McConnell defend a movement that threatens his livelihood? He has made it clear that he and the GOPe are done with him. Re-read his post-impeachment rant. I think he means it.

Of course he does. McConnell must know the fix is in for the 2022 elections, or he has finally identified his true allegiance. If he thought the Republicans would win bigly, why wouldn't he bet on a winning team? He ain't one of US, that's why. Too many on our side still believe we just need to elect Republicans. Yeah, so a huge portion of them can betray us as they have in the past. Mitch needs to go. He's lit the match; the call for him to go must be clarion!

Addison McConnel is the kind of leader who talks semi-tough in public. Behind closed doors in the smoke filled rooms of the Capitol bar he's right in there with Up Chuckie Schumer smoking cigars and having glasses of Brandy. He probably agrees with everything his old Senate buddy the Bidiot said in his declaration of war on MAGA Republicans disguised as a speech to the nation.

LGBTQ month after heated meeting

The Miami-Dade School Board in Florida rejected a proposed LGBTQ month for students after a contentious three-hour meeting Wednesday night. The measure would have recognized October as an official period of LGBTQ recognition in the district’s schools and taught older students about two Supreme Court cases related to gay rights. Backers of the proposal argued that the initiative would ease stigmas plaguing the community—with some public speakers likening opposition to Nazi marginalization of specific groups. Opponents asserted that the plan was tantamount to “indoctrination” and would introduce sexualized subject matter to Miami-Dade schools without adequate parental awareness.(Snip)“LGBTQ people suffered a higher rate of suicidal ideation

If you like free speech, don’t go to Columbia. A leading free speech organization ranked the best and worst college campuses for freedom of speech and New York’s top school, Columbia University, came in dead last. On Wednesday, The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) released its third annual College Free Speech Rankings for the 2022-2023 school year. In partnership with College Pulse, they surveyed nearly 45,000 students from more than 200 colleges—making it the largest ever survey about campus expression. The University of Chicago came first for campus free speech, scoring 77.92 points out of 100. Four public universities rounded out the top five: Kansas State
DHS adopts a lenient policy toward immigrants’

Homeland Security on Thursday announced it has adopted a new lenient policy on immigrants’ use of welfare, tossing a Trump-era policy that would have been far stricter. Under the new system, known as the “public charge” rule, immigrants will only be penalized for potential welfare use if the government believes they will eventually become “primarily dependent” on government payments. By contrast, living in government housing, using Medicaid for health coverage or accepting food stamps wouldn’t count against an immigrant. Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the new rule will deliver “fair and humane treatment of legal immigrants.” “Consistent with America’s bedrock values, we will not penalize individuals for choosing to access

The Homeland Security Department failed to fully vet some of the Afghan evacuees it brought into the U.S. during last year’s airlift, the department’s inspector general said in a devastating audit, which warned that some people who “posed a risk to national security” were indeed let into the country. One evacuee, just liberated from prison by the Taliban, was cleared to reach the U.S. Another reached the U.S. and was released, only to have the FBI conclude three months later that the evacuee “posed national security concerns.”(Snip)The prisoner was even flagged upon arrival at a U.S. airport.

California officials say it will cost $14 billion to upgrade aging wastewater facilities that are dumping nutrients from treated human sewage into San Francisco Bay, which are feeding a giant algae bloom that has lingered for more than two months and killed tens of thousands of fish. The algae bloom, which appeared in late July, has grown to an immense size because of the tons of nutrients from urine and feces of the eight million Bay Area residents that is released into the waters daily—one plant alone dumps 85 million gallons a day that contains 5.5 tons of nitrogen. Scientists say the bloom was triggered by climate change,

Healey, whose only rival for the nomination dropped out of the race but remained on the ballot, will be the heavy favorite in November against the winner of the Republican primary. Former state Rep. Geoff Diehl, who was endorsed by former President Donald Trump, and businessman Chris Doughty, who is considered more moderate, are running for the GOP nomination.

The slip of the tongue came as President Biden’s chief spokeswoman accused Russia of fueling an energy crisis in Europe by shutting down the pipeline, which supplies natural gas to large swathes of the continent. “What we see Russia is doing, we’ve been very clear about this, they’re using energy, they’re weaponizing energy,” Jean-Pierre told reporters during her regular press briefing. “One of the things that has been out there… they shut down the pipeline of Nordstrom 1.”

Joe Manchin cast the deciding vote for the so-called Inflation Reduction Act, and it may end up costing him his political career if a new poll is to be believed. Manchin, who had originally pledged not to sign on to any new spending bill during the country’s current inflationary boom, suddenly switched his position at the end of July. The bill he negotiated, which cost nearly a trillion dollars, was full of wasteful green energy subsidies and payouts to special interests. It also represented a stabbing in the back of Republican senators who had trusted him to keep his word about reconciliation after voting for the CHIPS Act.
