Mike Luckovich for February 29, 2024

Mitch, it was way past your time to leave.

Mitch, you have done it well, very well as the crumbling of democracy can attest.

It is WELL past time for Mitch to go. He has been screwing up our democracy for many years. Trouble is, with where the GOP is today……the next GOP Senate leader will likely be WORSE!!! Scary isn’t it?

Justice for Mitch would be forcing him to listen to his own post-J6 words every morning before breakfast and every evening before bed for eternity. He knows he could have put a stop to it then.

If Trump wins then he can learn to live in fear along with the rest of us. I can hear the devil saying “Mitch, I kept my part of the bargain. You were the longest lasting Senate leader in history. Now you need to keep your part.”

“Ditch Mitch or Die Trying” (Duncanville)

That’s all right, it will be burning where he’s going after life as well. That is if all the hocus pocus is real. Otherwise, he just be remembered in history as the man that stacked the supreme court and other federal courts with ethically compromised and insane criminal judges.

We won’t miss Moscow Mitch.

The GQP Senators will appoint a new leader, one that is such an extreme reactionary, people will think Mitch was a liberal.

Mitch: you were a key player in the demise of democracy. Take it to your grave.

And now, mcconnell, with his millions, and his wife (the trump-appointed former transportation secretary, who quietly and unethically abused the power of her office to make her rich family’s shipping corporation even bigger and the wealthy family a lot wealthier and then resigned), are gonna retire and live wherever they want, all over this planet, like one percenters.

If we hadn’t had moscow mitch we would never have had trump and a court that’s going to give him immunity from any and all prosecution in perpetuity.

thanks mitch.

Now do one with Biden in front of a map showing the U.S.A. in flames, with one of those gas pump stickers that say “I did that”.

Supreme Court at lowest rating ever thanks to lying thief Mitch and his anti American fascist cohorts in the republigoon party of Putin..

It was bad enough that he was partisan enough to hold up a legitimate SCOTUS appointment, but then he had to turn around and go against his own doctrine. And Amy Barrett (did you know “coney” is an old word for “rabbit?”) didn’t even step up and install Trump after he lost after all.

His proudest moment is blocking a legitimate nominee from getting fair consideration as delineated in the Constitution, thus undermining the process and completing the job of throughly politicizing the Supreme Court. Now he leaves leadership with Trump’s boot print on his bottom. Spit three times.

Thanks, Mitch for helping set up back 50 years.

Exactly!

From this taxpayer’s point of view, he has 534 current coconspirators and a lot more if you consider his entire tenure in Congress!

Wait but dems have been in charge completely or im majorities in 16 of the last 18 years… but its Mitch’s fault ?

Historically, there’s stiff competition for who’s ever been the most traitorous or destructive actor in American politics, but certainly Moscow Mitch is in the top ten.

Mitch McConnell who famously voted against a bill he himself sponsored because Barack Obama said he thought it was a good bill!

You won the cartoon of the day award. This says it all. Brilliant.

good strip again

Not just the capitol, but the entire country

Loved his stirring “he’s guilty” speech, followed by a “no” vote to impeach.

Fear has been a Republican campaign issue for years: fear of illegals, fear of the national debt, fear of poor people getting too many food stamps, fear of high taxes, fear of crime, fear of losing firearms, fear of “wrong” people voting, fear of not being able to pray, fear of ungodly people in charge, etc. Very seldom do Republicans pass legislation to help people, only to take away people’s freedoms. Thanks, Mitch.

Boomers – leave things in a mess for GEN Xers to fix – again.

McConnell said he’s going to resign after the November elections. Same deal as with every murder-suicide I’ve ever heard of: great idea, wrong order!

Nothing any other decrepit old white guy couldn’t do.

Now, buy a motor home and go cruisin’ with Judge “tell me what you want and I’ll tell you my price” Thomas.

Luckovich is one of the best. Excellent drawing.

Mitch sees what is happening to the Republican Party going into November. All the recent special elections indicate how America is going to vote, and Mitch will never live long enough to become the Majority Speaker again. Mitch is out.

The Teflon Turtle will not be missed!

Mitch has a lot to answer for, much of the current gong show lies at his feet.

And now they will want a Ted Cruz, or someone like him as a replacement. Hang on tight.

Bye bye and don’t let the door hit you on your antiquated, misogynistic, racist a$$ on your way out

In his pursuit of power McConnell installed tRump promising to control him. The neophyte tRump learned quickly, and McConnell failed to control him but the damage was done. This Republic, our rights and freedoms, are in big trouble because of Mitch McConnell.

Kentucky’s gift to the nation:/

For more than a generation..

Benighted, yet sly/

With a cynical eye/

An agent of devastation.

If Locovich hates him, he must have done a lot of good.

Brought the bat with the nails in it to the church league softball game.

Moscow Mitch: Don’t worry. I’ll still hang around the Senate for a few more terms just taking up space.

Moskow Mitch says “…moving on to the next chapter of my life…” Ya gotta admire a man with faith in tomorrow, but, this guy is as crazy as a bucket of bat cräp. Betcha his wife has a small mirror and checks to see if the old färt is breathing, 3 or 4 times a day. But wait, a scene plays before mine eyes…

the prince and his companion are in a graveyard…

Hamlet holds up the skull…. Alas, poor Mitch! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath pushed me down the steps a thousand times; and now, see how he lays in the next chapter of his life. Here hung those lips that have gibbered, I know not how oft. Where be your gibes now? your gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now, to mock your own grinning? quite chap-fallen. Prithee, Horatio, tell me one thing, why dost they call him Moskow Mitch ?…..

May he join trump in Dante’s circles 7, 8, & 9.

wait he really burned down a building? i’m not sure what building that is, but it looks big and nice. i bet someone cool lives there like t-pain or mark wahlberg. maybe they live together and are roommates! that would be so awesome! hey mitch, shame on you for burning down t-pain and mark wahlberg’s house. what will they do? where will they go? how is no one else talking about this?

My greatest fear that his successor will be much worse … now that the way has been shown.

Well done!

“My work here is done” translation: “I’ve screwed all the money out of this gig I’m gonna get, so I’m gettin’ while the gettin’s still good.”

A life well spent. /s

Spot on!

This is pretty much the standard comic for a republican’s resignation. They don’t call them “The Wrecking Crew” for nothing.

Amen. ’Bye, Mitch.

Do not be so modest, it was a team effort with you and the hundreds of others in that chamber.

He’s done more to destroy the american way of government than anyone in a very long time. Good riddance.
