An ‘Impeachment Investigation’ No Matter The Name | The Last Word | MSNBC
It will be VERY interesting to see what is written about McConnel in the history books. I have a hunch it will not be kind.
@Russian Diplomat LOL
Mos-COW Mitch!😂. How did his parents know to name him so aptly to fit in with his new moniker?!!!
watch out or putin will make you his ladyboy
Waddle McConnell
🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄
@mike swiental he be too late.
It must be very tempting to get a vast movement of voters to call him “Moscow Mitch”, think on it? The hard core right wing Republicans at the moment they cast their vote, seeing “Moscow” in their mind’s eye?
Moscow Mitch McConnell = #MMM
your un-American
Maga 4Eva Trump is the biggest traitor that has ever held the office of the presidency. Trump actually hates America. Sadly, Moscow Mitch and the rest of the spineless Republican Party fell in line behind criminal Trump.
I can’t believe this is happening in plain sight. Where’s the patriotism?
@Maga 4Eva It is a true patriot who challenges and questions the government.
Why Would Mitch McConnell jeopardize such a long history now. This is unbelievable, they are doing it despite all. Corruption right in front of all……..such news would turn things upside down before, what is going on
@Dmitri Fukov They won’t be safe to walk down the street. demorats will pay for their crimes…
@timandsue legere I’m pretty sure the Russians ate my homework.
@Dmitri Fukov The dnc wasn’t hacked. Metadata proves it was downloaded probably to a flash drive. Seth Rich was murdered right after.
WTF? How many breaks does Congress get a year? They do nothing, they get bribes (campaign donations) to vote on and create bills that benefit their donors, they can be in office indefinitely (term limits are needed) and they are scared of all members of Congress that signed the pledge to get money out of politics because if they didn’t get their bribes they wouldn’t be millionaires that own several houses, go on luxurious vacations, own several luxury cars, buy luxury clothing etc…
My favourite scene from Mars Attacks is when the martians blow up Congress….
Corporate lobbyists have corrupted democracy, but there are some good ones.
See my reply to r B’s reply to N S’s comment, above.
Moscow, Mother Russia Mitch and trump are going to sell America to their new country
@Jeremy Backup Poison…
Did you read the thing? No conspiracy,said Mueller.NONE. The democrats have been trying to dump TGrump since 14 Nov.2016. No conspiracy. No evidence of obstruction. Nothing to do with O.L.C. Rule. People do not have to prove innocence, have to prove guilt. Mueller went back and corrected what he said during hearings. You demons so want to get the president,watch out.There is a federal crime called sedition.And members of congress are not above it,and you can bet the A.G. has this as part of HIS INVESTIGATION. This is all political theater for the demons. All done for 2020.
Russia? I think you meant [China]
@David Wadsworth We need to dump the demorats. Traitors and rats!
Moscow Mitch McCoward needs to be removed from office. Ditch Mitch
@Thomas Engelke Excellent post. You are 100% correct.
However, don’t waste your time on little Dave Schultz, he’s a Russian bot.
He won’t reason. He’s here to argue nonsense until exhaustion.
He wants to drive you into endless and stupid arguments.
If you have the time, go ahead.
But, be aware that he won’t reason, he’s working under the direction of rigid supervisors from the FSB.
The Russians ate my homework!
@Ramon Guzman The demorats are colluding with the Chinese. So far, nothing done about it.
Republicans and Democrats need to understand that Putin is not a friend of ours If they take a break and not protect us from future hacks they should resign for letting Russians spy attack us from where it hurts the most
Its not a “both sides” issue…
I do not get how American security systems are not strong enough to control what comes in to America.
Republicans should speak now, or forever hold their peace.
@Trevor Sole Democrat/Socialist is following in the footsteps of the USSR
It was Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, the infamous sidekick of Stalin, who said, “SHOW ME THE MAN AND I WILL SHOW YOU THE CRIME”.
“Piece”. “Speak now or forever hold your piece”.
Hey Kentucky, thanks alot for electing a douch to our senate .
nobody nobody
Leave them alone. They are deplorables. Uncurable !!
It’s about the finances and money laundering. Whatever needs to be done to follow the money should be done because pinocchio was not very careful in the way he hid his money.
@snoop alert Are you stupid? Didn’t you hear that there are investigations into traitor Trump’s finances still going on? Therefore, Mr Mueller could not disclose certain details.
Mueller was lenient with traitor Trump, but it became clear that traitor Trump is a criminal that should have been charged.
That’s why it is in the hands of the HofR to charge him while in the presidency.
@scott mckenzie Deflecting much punkass?
@snoop alert How about you go live in stupid town with the really stupid people and shut up stupid.
Never thought that I would live to see the possibly fall of this democracy.
@Ramon Guzman absolutely – and some other countries slipped into deeper dictatorship like Saudi-Arabia and N-Korea + China which turned into a Communist Surveillance-Society. Meanwhile Europe turned Social-Democratic.
@Thornback Using social fiction novels instead of political doctrines, when it comes down to mass manipulation and control through different methods, China is a 1984’s Orwellian big brother dystopia (coercion,) and the West is A Brave New World’s Huxleyian soma and TV/social media ( brainwashing.)
In vitro fertilization is still a far cry from industrial production of babies, though.
@rui silva You people with the conspiracy theories. So pathetic
@Ramon Guzman shhhh….we aren’t allowed to criticize China. Only the Russians may be criticized…
Congressman Doggett didn’t have a slip of the tongue when he said the “Republicans” interfered in the elections of 50 states…they are just as complicit as Moscow Mitch in this travesty.
@B.J Cameron Yeah, right… you better stick to giving BJ’s That’s where your future lies.
larueleroux Socialist Democrats always know how to spit on themselves and tell everyone they are the only victims of this world.
@B.J Cameron – BS. #45 and Ivanka won’t even make their own products here! They are Russia and/or China first, certainly not America!
@B.J Cameron…So you’re saying that, like Trump, we should take the word of Putin instead? Do you actually have ANY CREDIBLE evidence that U.S. intel about Russian election interference is flawed? You trust McConnell…but you don’t trust the dozens of career intel staff in the FBI, CIA and DOJ? Let me ask you a question….is there a specific mental aberration that runs in your family?….or are you the ‘special’ one?

Kentuckians need to show some guts and get rid of Mitch McConnell. The electorate is standing in the way of protecting our democracy from Russian interference. Why is Mitch doing this?? $, $, $, and I don’t mean jobs for Kentuckians, I mean in McConnell’s pockets!!
bob stevens
Kentucky… we love your bourbon but hate your senator
Well said Sir, well said.
Why ? See my reply to r B’s reply to N S’s comment, above.
FASCISM. PLAIN AND SIMPLE. THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS THE PARTY OF FASCISM AS IT WAS IN THE 1930’S BEFORE WWII.
God says whatever you sow you will reap can’t stop that
Use Roundup.
Shut up with the superstition, please. T Y
*Look at what the Democrats have sewn.*
Mitch McConnell needs to be executed when you stop security bills to Stop the Russians from interfering in 2020 that means he doesn’t care about security for the American people he cares more about the Russians that makes him a traitor, he has Russian ties Russian investments and he’s a Russian Agent.As well as Donald Trump is a Russian troll, that’s the only way the Republicans can win, (by cheating.)!!!!!!!!!!!
see my reply to r B’s reply to N S’s comment above.
You still buying that Russia line? What a dupe.
John M Jon I have more friends around the world.
@John M…I see your still sucking Trump’s nad sack.
All Political Careers end in failure, McConnell’s should end in Supermax with his Orange Mob Boss.
Considering MMc is a republican, he sure looks like a putin, commie lover
– What are you 10 years old?
– Look back in time before saying something so f~cking stupid!
– Only Liberals politically respect communist countries and dismantle our military ability to oppose them!
Moscow Mitch is deplorable. He should be impeached alongside Trump.
It’s past time for Moscow Mitch’s reign of obstruction to be brought to an end! He’s a witting Russian agent! Exhile him and #45!
