Senate Republicans have once again enabled RINO Mitch McConnell, gifting him the chairmanships of the Senate Rules Committee and the powerful Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense for the 119th Congress.
Despite concerns over McConnell’s mental acuity, his new roles position him to obstruct President Trump’s conservative agenda from within.
McConnell will now chair both the Senate Rules Committee and the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense—roles that could give him significant influence over key legislative priorities.
RINO McConnell wasted no time declaring his intentions.

He is going to be a big problem. Why couldn't he just freaking leave! He is 84 and not well. Why do people like him and Pelosi want to die in the job??
They really are that power hungry. They do not care about America or the people.

Giving him chairmanship over the rules committee likely means no recess appointments for Trump. Why does Kentucky keep sending this extreme RINO to congress?

Okay. This Rhino stooge has been around a loooooonnnnng time. That means, he's got skeletons in his closet. I'm sure the wife also has a bunch as well. They are both dirty. Expose them, now. Drag this bas--tird through the mud until he relents and leaves or make him an offer he can't refuse. The nation's future hangs in the balance. Time to play really, really hard ball..

I want to see a list of each and every slimeball republican that voted to give McConnell this power. And then primary every single one of them and I don't care who they are. This is an affront to every single MAGA voter who worked hard for Trump, who has supported Republicans for decades and who voted to give these slimebag republicans the majority. Names and then primaries.

Maybe they won't need the recess appointments.
I think I read his comments to be an attack against the current administration and their weakness being shown around the world.
I believe he wants to ensure the institutions are respected and protected and not abused like they have been recently too.
But that will also mean he'll need to be willing to expose the schemes and scams, particularly against President Trump, and shut down the Democrat lawfare that's affecting all of the government institutions.

McConnell's approval ratings among Republicans is below 10%, yet he has all the power. McConnell is deep state corrupt, wealthy off Chinese money, and taxpayer money directed to Kentucky friends. I despise the man for clenching onto power, when his health alone should send him home. America needs new ideas and perspective. McConnell has been around forever, and is a big part of the reason the country always progresses to socialism, and no Republican, except Trump, ever reverses that trend.

Well we are really finding out who all the RINO's are in Congress now, aren't we. If feeble McConnell doesn't pull a Diane Feinstein first, he needs to retire sooner than later.

With any luck, Thune will remove him from both committees after everyone's sworn in. I'm not holding my breath.

Once PDT is sworn in, America can get back to peaceful protesting. We need to make sure Mitch knows we're not playing with him.

What the heck is it with so called Republican 'politicians'. Why does their greed and jealousy always win, and they stick Republicans in the back.

Stop sending the GOP money. It's wasted. Send to trustworthy Maga Republicans and publicize who the Swamp Critters are working for. Put them out of business. They aren't MAGA.

Mitch froze up solid again a couple of days ago. Even his two handlers couldn't get him back to reality.

I’m starting to think that Republicans caving on the stolen senate seats in AZ, NV, MI & WI was intentional. Those seats would’ve given us 4 more senators to support President Trump’s agenda. Matt Gaetz had 4 hard no’s that could not be overcome. All 4 of these snakes will be a constant problem for us. It really is business as usual. The Swamp has said FU to We The People.

Apply the Dems ejection playbook: accuse, smear, investigate and dump. Surely he can be found in Epstein's book. Perhaps Puff Daddy has a tape or?? Then there's the whole Chinese influencing and money angle. Step down now Mitch!!

As cruel as it may sound, sometimes death is the only way to get rid of these power-hungry old fossils. McConnell, Feinstein, Pelosi, long past their sell-by dates.

Thune is not trustworthy.
Refer to Trump's story about the lady who saved the snake.

Question: If “Team Mitch” get red-carded and is taken off the field in a hearse, does the Governor of KY get to appoint someone? If so, the new Senate needs to strip him of this power and let him be comatose in the back row.

So, it appears that the rinos have formed a new gang of six - the Turtlemeister, Murkie, Collinskie, Mulligan, Curtie, and Brownie. The turtle appears willing to stroke out at his desk.

As usual, the Republicans are their own worst enemy and can’t stand prosperity!
