Washington- Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell has repeatedly said he is “fine” since he froze up midsentence during a press conference on Wednesday. And now his office is trying to tamp down speculation that he might not fill out his term as leader because of his health. In a statement, his office said McConnell appreciates the continued support of his colleagues and “plans to serve his full term in the job they overwhelmingly elected him to do.” The statement, first reported by Politico, comes after McConnell, 81, has suffered health problems in recent months. At his weekly press conference, he froze and stared vacantly for about 20 seconds before

Old, corrupt and traitorous. A great combination for a leader in the most embarrassing elected body in world history. Go away Mitch. Far, far away.

I'll cut him some slack. Decades ago there was a fad on college campuses know as "streaking." When an attractive girl ran by in her birthday suit my mind was totally forged for 30 seconds. All he needs is an assistant to tell him whether to say yea or nay.

He plans to serve ("himself" is left unspoken). As long as there are millions available for the taking, Mitch will be there to scoop them up. He cares not for what he may have to do to "earn" them or who is hurt in the process. It's all about you, Mitch!! At what point will you say you've made enough money? I'll bet never. Read Proverbs 1:19 sometime; it warns those who've profited from ill gotten gains. From what happened to you this week, that time is approaching.....

The ONE and ONLY thing that McConnell did for the Country and not his pocketbook was the hold up of Obama's Judicial Appointments. For that I am grateful, Merrick Garland is not on the Court. Everything else IMHO he has done to protect his Chinese investments to enrich himself and his "Honeytrap" wife.

James Comer is calling out President Joe Biden's Department of Justice for apparently acting out of the norm in an attempt to stop anyone from 'cooperating' with the House Oversight's investigation into Hunter Biden. The DOJ's actions related to the probe are an attempt to 'intimidate' witnesses key to getting to the bottom of the President's son's shady overseas business deals, Comer claims. The Southern District of New York received a letter on Saturday demanding it expedite its sentencing of Devon Archer, former business associate of Hunter, 53.

Law enforcement had knowledge of the Biden family business and alleged wronging for years before the FBI obtained Hunter Biden’s laptop. Despite the warnings of whistleblowers and lawmakers, government agencies appeared uninterested in pursuing any suspicious evidence. Even years later, government agencies appear uninspired by the mounting evidence. Below is a timeline of the government’s knowledge of the Biden family’s alleged wrongdoing, according to whistleblowers, the 2020 Senate report, and Hunter Biden’s laptop from hell:

Overwhelming evidence suggests the “big guy” is a monicker that represents President Joe Biden. The monicker appears in an FBI informant form, text messages, and emails between Biden business associates. It also reportedly formed a part of the grand jury investigation into Hunter Biden, which IRS whistleblowers claim was politically influenced to protect the Bidens.

At 24, Alberto Rodriguez has grandparents younger than Joe Biden. But he’s more interested in the 80-year-old president’s accomplishments than his age. “People as young as me, we’re all focusing on our day-to-day lives and he has done things to help us through that,” Rodriguez, a cook at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, said of Biden’s support among young voters. Rodriguez pointed specifically to federal COVID-19 relief payments and government spending increases on infrastructure and other social programs. Voters like him were a key piece of Biden’s winning 2020 coalition, which included majorities of young people as well as college graduates, women, urban and suburban voters and Black Americans.

Faced with a historically unpopular president overseeing a weak economy and promoting left-wing “Bidenomics,” Republicans have a golden opportunity in 2024. The election couldn’t be more winnable. And the only thing that should matter for Republicans is actually winning it. While there is a sense that Donald Trump has become a frontrunner in the Republican primaries, there is just as much of a sense that he can’t win a general election—not anymore. Here's the hard truth: If Trump secures the Republican nomination, Joe Biden will be re-elected. But, if Ron DeSantis becomes the nominee, then the Democrats have little to no chance.
