DC swamp creatures do not live under the same rules as the rest of us.

Moscow Mitch is moving as fast as he can. You just can’t see it. Besides, you can’t have people making too much money doing nothing or they’re never going to want to work again. He knows from personal experience. He stopped working when he was elected to the Senate.

Excellent comic.

Mitch is on vacation, the Hero bill has been on his desk for over two months.

Republicans have turned the USA into a failed state.

The balderdash and tripe that McConnell is spewing in the cartoon is the same garbage republicans have been spreading since at least the days of “Cowboy Ronnie”! It was wrong then, and it’s still wrong today.

Understand this. Extending a “helping hand” to others goes against EVERYTHING the republican party has ever stood for.

You know the old joke about the banker who’s willing to lend you money – as long as you didn’t NEED it – well guess what political party the banker belongs to?

Mitch is serving an essential service to our country as a paper weight. Those bills arriving on his desk need to be held down bigly.

Mitch’s excuse? Because his net worth is $30 million (celebritynetworth.com).

Hi Excuse? he is a billionaire through his marriage with Elaine Chao. She is the heir of one of the worlds largest shipping companies.

They make billions of dollars from Contracts with the US government, while purchasing ships from communist china. All being arranged by Chao but there is no conflict of interest if you are a Republican.

The real question we should all be asking is not why $600 is too much when we’re in a crisis but why less than that is considered adequate when we’re not.

“My wife’s family support me.”

Moscow Mitch is about to begin Congress’ annual 30 Day Vacation.

So, it will be just like the last 8 Months when Congress has done Nothing.

Moscow Mitch is working hard (for himself). How else do you accumulate $35 million on a Senator’s salary?

If he gets dumped by Kentucky voters, I’ll bet Chao dumps him like last week’s Chao Shou which is, not surprisingly: PORK

Lemme ask it another way: How much would it take for you to sleep with him?

McGrath for Kentucky.

Mitch knows most Americans will not bother to see how things are done in other countries. If Americans looked at Germany they would see that an excellent unemployment benefits and training system has managed to keep the economy running better and jobless numbers lower than in the US, and many other countries. And that is only one example.

My nephew inherited a construction company. Long before the Trump plague, he was complaining that he couldn’t depend on his workers because once he laid them off at the completion of a job, they could stay on unemployment for 6 months and make more money than he was paying them, just picking up a few Craig’slist gigs on the side and working a few hours a week. He was not appreciative when I pointed out to him that he was sitting in a 3/4 million dollar house, bought with the labor of those workers, and the obvious answer to his problem was to simply pay them what they had earned, making it worth their time to come to work, instead of keeping it for himself.

He’s been very busy…stacking the courts with radical right-wing bootlickers. He knows the Trump train wreck will decimate the GOP, but they can hobble any democratic reforms by endlessly tying them up in the courts.
