A message for Mitch McConnell:

You might want the case to be closed, but....

THE CASE IS NOT CLOSED!

We have to wonder what degree of complicity is your involvement?

There are a lot of questions that must be answered.

And we are going nowhere until then.

Why are you so afraid of the truth?

Outrageous. The Russian ties to the family business need to be investigated thoroughly.

7. I'm afraid Congress has its own equivalent of the Blue Wall... they're unlikely to investigate him.

That is one of the arguments most compelling in favor of congressional term limits. They feel like they owe, or they have to preserve relationships, or whatever. Including, of course, with big donors and the politically powerful. Why weren’t shrub and Cheney prosecuted for their lies, etc?

As I mentioned in another response, don't forget to include McConnell's wife and her ties.

Let it be recorded here and now, that Senator Addison Mitchell McConnell AIDED and ABETTED an attack by a hostile foreign power on the United States between 2015 and 2019. This, Mitch McConnell, is called TREASON! You are GUILTY as charged!

10. I don't think it's paranoia. I think they are aware
Tue May 7, 2019, 08:57 AM
May 2019

of the realities that:

—they have policies that are unpopular with the majority of people paying attention, so they have to rig the system to stay in power

—they know they have engaged in all types of wrongdoing and that prosecutors, Mueller, and the Dems are sniffing it out

—if they let these people proceed to reveal the truth, they lose power, money, and in some cases their freedom

So they are doing everything they can to prevent this from happening.

It’s very rational from people with no moral compass.

Your massive campaign funding from China?
Your massive NRA funding from Russia?
Your complicity in obstruction of justice?
