I think that MOSCOW MITCH SHANKED THE DONALD and MAGA, too. Kevin McCarthy, along with his Donor Class has also been shanking the Donald or so went a recent article in the Washington Post.

‘Kevin McCarthy’s allies spent millions weeding out Trump-backed candidates such as Madison Cawthorn. It was part of a bigger plan.’

This article had so many PACs separating the wheat from the chaff, they clogged the page:

American Patriots, Common Sense Leadership Fund, Eighteen Fifty-Four Fund, Conservatives For a Stronger America, Congressional Leadership Fund, Common Sense, Americans for a Balanced Budget, WFW Action Fund.

I’m sure that I didn’t write them all down. In addition to Cawthorn, the PACS got rid of controversial Republicans like former New York state party chair Carl Paladino, Florida state Rep. Anthony Sabatini and Trump-endorsed congressional candidate Joe Kent. These PAC allies of McCarthy’s also spent millions in attempts to protect incumbents. (WAPO)

So, I don’t think Mitch is the only elephant in the room after the Donald. The ‘serious’ Republican politicos’ want to do a little cleanup to win back some Suburban Moms. Ha, good luck with that as Roe v. Wade are staring them in the face. Nevertheless, it would magical if they could disappear the Donald before the midterms. Ha, ha…do you believe in magic?

But getting back to Mitch, Mr. Serioso helped get more than enough Republicans on board, so that the The Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act will be passed. Isn’t bipartisanship a beautiful thing?

Now, if these upstanding Republicans work their spell on getting The Donald to disappear that would be magical indeed.

Whodathunkit? Good for Senator McConnell. Will it be enough to stop the fraud at the state levels?

Moscow Mitch only answers to his billionaire handlers. He is a nasty piece of work, and perhaps he is tired of tRump’s insults ( . . .”he [Mitch McConnell] is a piece of sh!t and and Old Crow . . . “) after years of force-feeding trump fascism to his “American People” audience. If McConnell had been concerned by the Jan 6th coup attempt, he would have acted on it in “his serious” way long before now. Don’t give him an iota of credit; the old reptilian fossil doesn’t deserve an ounce of good will. His record will stand as it is . . . Until the Brown Shirts burn all the history books.

HUH???? He has a conscience after all! Grudgingly awarding (deserved) kudos but truly hoping it's part of a grand finale.

McConnell is a snake. We know he is a snake. He does nothing that isn’t in his own best interest. There’s a lot of “Boyz in the backroom” cigar chomping discussion with Dark Money interests in this current, surprise bipartisan endorsement, to be sure

Working for change is not only being radical, but also nudging the "concrete butts" a little bit. That was my takeaway from the 1970ies.

Live to fight another day, yes, but I hope the House will get to work immediately on adendams that will close any loopholes the RepubliCONs surely left. I would not trust a RepubliCON any more then that rat out in my barn.

That doesn't sound right. Does that mean that the V.P. can't reject false electors?
