Come back next week after the Bank Forecloses and you can stick that sign anywhere you want . . . . TODAY I’ll stick it where it will benefit Kentucky the most if you ain’t my money.
And Mitch McConnell knows it. He is a bad man. But he’s also a clever, savvy, and talented self-promoter. He has a vast network of powerful supporters that OWE him for their positions and they want to keep their patron in power.
The idea that these folks are backwards, redneck, inbred knuckledraggers is both insultingly racist it is also dangerously stupid.
These are powerful people and organizations. The University of Louisville owes Mitch much. The Federalist Society has made huge gains thanks to Mitch. The NRA is nothing without him.
The only thing that’ll happen if y’all keep blaming that country voter is six to TWELVE more years of Mitch. Turtles live forever.
You want to beat Mitch, do something about it. Donate to Amy McGrath and help those Kentucky voters to who you enjoy feeling superior.
Jeff, I always love your stereotypes of ignorant southern hillbillies, but such stereotypes, I fear plays into the republikkkans’ stereotypes of us and feeds Hump’s politics of resentment.
Writing the pleading should take an hour. As usual, Trump has already made the best case against himself by (1) saying vote-by-mail means no Republican can ever be elected; (2) openly lying about a supposed difference between absentee voting and vote-by-mail (a distinction without a difference); (3) stating openly that vote-by-mail is okay in Florida (where he lives and had just been told the GOP has won many elections using it), etc. Clearly, the motives behind what is happening are not fiscal, as claimed, but rather blatantly political and unlawful. 18 US Code Section 1701 et seq. makes intentional delay or obstruction of the U.S. mail by any person a federal crime.
Elections are run by states, for better or worse. Trump’s current efforts shatter this barrier and will disenfranchise millions. In addition, the ham-handed way in which it is being done – by crippling the U.S. Post Office – will bring irreversible harm to pensioners, retirees, veterans, the elderly, the sick, the handicapped and others by delaying or blocking benefits, payments, tax refunds, medicines and more. Small businesses that ship products overseas are already shutting down due to delivery failures.
All of this supports issuance by the SCOTUS of an emergency TRO and preliminary injunction, to remain in effect until the matter is tried and a final judicial decision is rendered.
It is reported Trump plans to sue many key states on or soon after Election Day to stop all counting or inclusion of mail-in ballots. We cannot wait for that to happen… every day of delay after 3 November in declaring a winner makes it less likely the SCOTUS will allow counting to resume. It will be 2000 all over again.
C’mon state AGs !! The best defense is an offense. Get together and drop the big bomb on this unholy, unprecedented and unconstitutional behavior NOW, while there is still time.

Doing that, he’d be lucky if he didn’t end up like an actual turtle, on top a fence post, legs flailing, and roasting to death in the sun.

Pork pays.. or at least it did in the past. One can only hope that enough Kentuckians realize they have been suckered too often to fall for it again.

Been wondering if I’d ever get a “stimulus” check. It arrived the same day as this cartoon.
(FWIW, I don’t live in Kentucky.)
