I hope that McConnell didnt have that shit grin on his face when he was making that statement.
The pathetic thing is that he probably doesn’t know he’s ever more hideous when he tries to feign human emotion
Lyin’ turtle says what?
Planning a 50 + Pence confirmation vote, no doubt.
“Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell had few words Tuesday night on the bombshell news that President Donald Trump had fired FBI Director James Comey.”
It’s as if Trump said to himself…
“I wonder how I could turn enough furious Americans into the streets to make The Women’s March look like a Rotary Club picnic.”
Okiedokie
A strange number of em see themselves as invincible.
Wait awhile
The best part of the timeline is now starting up.
Collins is carrying water for Trump tonight. My god. I never want to hear that woman’s name again.
Sitting here listening to Anderson Cooper jousting wth KAC, read your comment, and did a spit take. Well said, sir!
I assume Comey’s replacement nominee cannot be filibustered if he/she proves to be of dubious credibility? (Which will probably be the case.)
McConnell Already Looking Ahead To Hearings For Comey’s Successor
No, let the next president appoint the new FBI director. The American people should have a say.
Not quite as unseemly as announcing no 2016 hearings on a Supreme Court nominee while Scalia’s dead body was still warm… but kinda approximately sorta maybe close-ish?
Even though the president appoints the FBI director, doesn’t he report to the attorney general? I remember that when Nixon set out to fire Archibald Cox, an employee of the Justice Department, he had to order Attorney General Elliot Richardson to do it. Richardson refused and then resigned. Nixon then turned to the deputy attorney general, William Ruckelshaus, and ordered him to fire Cox. Rucklshaus refused and either resigned or was fired. Nixon then turned to the solicitor general, the infamous Robert Bork, and told him to fire Cox. Bork complied. So shouldn’t Comey have been fired by Attorney General Sessions?
“Once the Senate receives a nomination, we look forward to a full, fair, and timely confirmation process to fill the Director position,” his statement read.
Translation: we will rubber-stamp anyone who fogs a mirror. This is very rapidly becoming farce.
mcconnell (Russian Appeasement Party) is going to go down as one of the most traitoruos shit stains in American history
maybe it’s time to put the brakes on absolutely everything in congress until the russia matter is resolved
Dream on. There are Americans to be screwed first.
I think that is what Schumer will be telling Democratic Senators at 9:30 am.
