What a gift McConnell handed to the Democrats. It's no longer debatable-------they will engage in blatant destruction of truth and democracy in the Senate. And every time they do it, they punch another hole in the bottom of their boat.

Imagine the expressions on their smug, arrogant faces, when they find they're up for re-call in their states. Enough outrage will bring that result.

I'm a moderate Republican and I think Warren is a kook but she has a right to speak, even if we hate her message. I think this was a really stupid move ... nobody was going to hear her speech other than the few people who watch CSPAN. Now she has a megaphone, millions will hear her speech. This makes the Senate Republicans look petty and misogynistic. Also, one day ... and sooner than people think ... the Republican Party will be in the same situation as the Democrats currently are. States that are currently GOP strongholds like Texas and Georgia are gradually trending towards the Democrats.

Oh well, they don't call the GOP the stupid party for no reason.

Which is why you refuse to discuss the facts about it.

It doesn't matter if she is purple, Sessions performed his duty as he should have.
Well did the Federal prosecutors also place FBI agents outside polling places and post offices in white districts. Did you read the details on the grand jury hearings?


No investigation of white voter fraud just blacks because we all know that white voters were clean when it came to absentee ballots. Seems like he went after these activists rather vigorously when they started grabbing political power.

McConnell used an arcane Senate rule to muzzle Elizabeth Warren. What is this, Russia? Republicans should be ashamed.
Actually he used a rule that demands they show respect. I know, moobats think that's arcane. We need to send out the military, round up these whacko protestors, build a sheriff Joe camp and toss them in. Maybe sitting in the desert for a year with pink garb on eating peanut butter and jelly will give them time to think about how they respond to life's disappointments.

Let's start with the actions of the FBI. Show us the details about their actions. Who ordered the FBI to do what?

Specifics and links.

I'm talking about this last election and the next one.

Political favoritism ebbs and flows. Right now, the tide is rising the GOP.
