  1. McConnell and Scott are not AMERICANS. They are TRUMP PARTY LEMMINGS. Nothing matters but money and Trump

    1. @Lise Dolen There are still some Republicans out there who, while I don’t agree with their political ideas, are real Republicans and stand for something. Trump Party Lemmings hate them and Democrats and their thrust is to exist as only a Trump Party country with money as the priority. The are the least American and the most likely to give the country away in exchange for cash.

    2. @Dark Reaper Why would I drink bleach? Is that what you tell people when they speak about Joe Biden groping young people on camera ?

    3. McConnell receives money from family associations with CCP, Chinese Communist Party, backed companies. CCP has a long history of human rights violations. Check out McConnell’s Senate financial disclosures. Follow the money.

    1. @Glenn Maillard But liberals sacrifice their own children to the “gods” of promiscuity and lies. Real humanitarians. SMH

    2. @shix1979 You are a complete moron. Crying about Planned Parenthood, while claiming your male body is your right. I can’t believe you cannot see the irony, but that is not a surprise with you neo-con uneducated dumb morons.

    3. @shix1979 Calls people dumb – defends the rights of his body while crying about Planned Parenthood. OH MY GOD THE IRONY.

  2. Republicans only care about corporate welfare. Capitalism is dead when we constantly bail them out with taxpayer funds.

    1. Pensa Simpson hah hah haha hahaha haha haha I’m going sleep good tonight knowing trump will be in office until 2024

    2. @Mickey Andres So its okay to bail out big cooperations with our tax money. Makes sense. Btw, states such as New York/CA put in many times more into the federal pot then they take out. So did that money just disappear? Well guess them cooperation “grants” got their money somewhere. Also, what the current administration is doing is socialism at its finest. “Grant” is just a pretty word for socialism.

    3. BREAKING NEWS

      Common sense is now an endangered species.
      Stupidity has taken over the world and unfortunately there is no known cure.

    4. McConnell receives money from family associations with CCP, Chinese Communist Party, backed companies. CCP has a long history of human rights violations. Check out McConnell’s Senate financial disclosures. Follow the money.

    1. @shix1979 Look out, folks, shix-kicker has totally lost his shix here and has gone full Trumpflake psycho. He just can’t handle the humiliation of having been proven wrong at every turn in this thread.
      I’ve reported and muted him and you all should do the same as a public service.

    2. shix1979 Lol, it’s f’ing hilarious you fools think TDS is an actual thing…..SOO original 😂😂😂

    3. @Josh Edmonds . You have to provide a link to an actual article from a reputable source written by a professional journalist in which this Harvard person is quoted and your claims are substantiated.
      Your version of it, told in your own voice with your own editorial comments, doesn’t constitute proof of anything.

    4. @ shix1979 You are 4 Days late. and 30 yrs too short. I did not mention the tiny hands.

    1. @Maren Huwald Yes he can show them the portrait of George Washington and regale the visitors with tales of Washington taking over the airports during the revolutionary war.

  3. Remember all those times Florida or Texas or Alabama said, “Here’s your federal aid back for our hurricanes and tornadoes?”
    Yeah, neither do I.

    1. @Texas Outlaw don’t feel sorry for me I live in a blue where we have low welfare recipients and great educators!

    2. @Diana Hulstine Sure. You are so proud of your shithole state that you haven’t bothered mentioning which one it is! Peddle your lies somewhere else, I’m not believing them.

    3. @Diana Hulstine “I live in a blue where we have low welfare recipients *and great educators!*

      I can’t help but laugh at your futile attempts at English, all while you pat yourself on the back for living in “a blue” with such great education! Lmfao 😆 😆 😆 😆

    4. @Texas Outlaw really so you don’t understand the point I’m making ? Then you are not from this coubtry are you comrade

    5. @Diana Hulstine I understood what you were *trying* to say. 😆
      It’s hilarious that you butcher the English language, won’t admit what state you allegedly live in, then imply that I’m the one that isn’t American. Whatever you say sweetheart…

    1. @Kathy Franklund The 1% you say? You mean soros, gates, rockerfeller? or who exactly were you referring to? It’s you idiots who bow to the 1%. You’ll be all up on bill gates’ nutz to get that vaccine. Good luck with that!

    2. @shix1979 Listen up sunshine! I’m a conservative Aussie, not a “liberal”! My interest in this abomination of a president lies in the “fact” that I have several American friends who are frankly terrified of his erratic behaviour. Why a supposed leader would be pushing for a pardon for a person he fired during a crushing pandemic is quite frankly, appalling! Those are the facts!

    3. @Jon Sheen No, I do not EVER watch mainstream media, including faux. I don’t watch alex jones either. I do go to the cdc website and read vaccination ingredients. I go to the WHO and read ALL of their agendas. I look into Bill Gates actual investments in vaccine and disease and see that he stands to make billions from coronavirus. Need I continue? Or are you done trying to play on the big kid playground?

    4. Bartholomew Henry hates people. Bart is a pro fascist hypochondriac who can’t wait to torture and rat on anyone not obeying the government .

  4. Whoa, I’m so glad Cuomo has a spine.
    More people need to know about how much welfare republican states take in.

    1. @Tom Hodgson you should make a new tinfoil hat… You make no sense at all.
      I here they are giving away foil at meat processing facilities….there must be one near you…

    2. @Darlene Hawkins Get a high school education before suggesting others are idiots, Darlene. Maybe work on your illiteracy first before suggesting it’s the world around you that has the problem.

    3. Wow, doesn’t Moscow Mitch realize that states like California,New York and Chicago are port states and if they were to declare sovereignty they could charge tariffs to all other states for goods coming into there ports and leaving their ports. All the above mentioned states are run by dems so mid western states rely on those ports to get product to market. Mitch stop trying to sew devision

  5. It is funny that Moscow has been in the Senate since 1984, yet his state is one of poorest, least educated and has the worst healthcare. What exactly is he doing for Kentucky or the US for that matter?

    1. Kentucky also has one of the highest incidents of Opioid Addiction of it’s population. Where was Moscow Mitch McConnell when they needed someone to stand up to the big Pharmaceutical Companies pushing the addictive pain pills on patients? Oh, that’s right, McConnell is in the pocket of those big corporations. They are his donors for his reelection campaign. He’s Not going to aggravate them!! Certainly Not going to try to punish them!!

    2. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. That’s what he’s doing. They ran all the unions out of the state. That way they can pay the people that do work substandard wages. Moscow, Rogers, and the rest are worthless.

    3. @avaDesdemona That’s exactly his plan. The poor stupid people in Kentucky have believed his lies for years.

  6. DO NOT STOP MAKING THIS POINT !!!! “HOW DARE THEY!!!” Democrats always return to decency and somehow republicans BLATANTLY LIE What a joke “deep state” is republicans.

    1. @Bucky Pinata NY pays millions more in federal taxes than it receives Kentucky does the opposite it’s been leeching for years. Being an American I would have thought you would have had the links the statistics. Silly me

    2. @Lyn S NY has a larger population, of course they pay more. They also receive more aid than KY. You uneducated? That is rhetorical…

    3. McConnell receives money from family associations with CCP, Chinese Communist Party, backed companies. CCP has a long history of human rights violations. Check out McConnell’s Senate financial disclosures. Follow the money.

    4. @Bucky Pinata it doesn’t matter what the population is the or whether they get more or not the only thing that matters is whether they get more than they give. Basic Maths example k pays 5 but gets 10 where do you think the other 5 comes from?? N.Y pays 25 gets back 15 in that instance yes N.Y is getting more than K but they are also paying both much more than K & more then they are receiving they are also supporting freeloading welfare baby k.
      So you look up how much Kentucky & N.Y paid in federal taxes last year & how much they got back.

  7. McConnell shouldn’t have taken on Cuomo. Again, Governor Cuomo has the facts on his side. This isn’t a red state vs. blue state issue. McConnell trying to make it so will rue the day he ever made that careless and heartless remark.

    1. It’s not the rest of the country’s fault that Cuomo squanders state tax dollars. No people in the country pay as high of taxes as New Yorkers. Those of us who elect fiscal conservatives for our states don’t deal with the circus you see in NY and Ca…and we are sick of bailing out the same old states….it’s always Cali, NY, or Illinois as the damsels in distress…so it sort of IS a red state/blue state thing. Where does NY tax money go? If you have a HUGE cheesecake, and I have a tiny cheesecake…..how is it fair for you to eat all of yours then demand mine? You make it fair by creating the narrative that I’m “mean spirited” and don’t care that you want more cheesecake…..or “children are gonna die of starvation at school if you don’t get my cheesecake……don’t you care about the children!?”…. It’s a simple tactic used by liberals for decades. Amazing that people still fall for it……usually New Yorkers and Californians based on how they continue to elect people to wreck their states. And people on this thread hating on corporations probably all work for…*drumroll*……..you guessed it………a corporation. Corporations will always be around unless you move to Middle Earth or something.

    2. @Forty Six — So you’re paying no attention at all to the fact that red states take more money from the federal government than they put in, whereas blue states put in more money to the federal government than they take out?

    3. McConnell might stop and think, there are plenty of Republican voters in New York. Maybe less after he opened his stupid mouth. Even if not, I would not like any more people, Democrats or Republicans. For most, this is not about party politics. For the minority, yes, but not the majority who care about the elderly and the otherwise vulnerable. Those unlikely to die sacrifice those who likely will. Disgusting.

    4. @Forty Six fine make it a blue state red state thing. Start by giving back all the federal Red state Welfare they have been taking. Start with Kentucky since their senator is so willing to let states go bankrupt. When was the last time that Kentucky or any other Red Welfare state paid more federal taxes than the federal money they received?? Seriously I’m interested & since I’m not in either a Red or Blue State I’m impartial. But if blue states like NY & California are paying more federal taxes than they have received in past years then it’s simple maths. You do have a point though perhaps they should start & elect another party one that’s focused on keeping their charitable ways at home one that refuses to keep funding a federal government that keeps propping up unprofitable & ungrateful Republican states. As Mitch says let them become failed states. Under Republican ideology any welfare is socialism & that’s bad free & unregulated capitalism is the way to go. Under that system any state or corporation that can’t stand on it own feet without federal or state hand outs shouldn’t exist.

  8. Finally the ” TAKERS ” that Fox & their zombies scream about 24-7 are on display for all to see !!!TAKERS !!!!

    1. @Maja-Danmark But there’s hope … the state does have a Dem governor, Andy Beshear, and McGrath is seriously challenging Moscow Mitch.

  9. If California and New York stop paying taxes to the federal government, all red states can kiss their welfare checks and food stamps Adios!!!

    1. well with this pandemic an kushner saying federal stockpiles aren’t ment for the states why give them anything , you really going to give somebody’s minimum wage tax’s to make up for what trump an his buddies don’t pay Lmao

  10. Stop bailing out the red states. Let them live by their own rhetoric, and pick themselves up by their own bootstraps.

  11. Don’t forget, the red states then pick the president! End the electoral college. One person, one vote.
