Bullshit Moscow Mitch Says

Whitaker already outlined the plan. He’s going to privately starve the beast and restrict the investigation. Then Republicans will treat the result as legitimate.
 
If the AG needs to be confirmed by the Senate, why does the interim without Senate confirmation get to make weighty decisions like that?

Lol yeah exactly. The fact that he repeats “shut it down” over and over means McConnell is in on it.

This would be a good place for a follow up question, what about legislation protecting the scope and autonomy of the investigation?

Funny you should ask. McConnell blocked this exact legislation late this afternoon.

Bill to protect Mueller blocked in Senate

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) asked for consent to bring the legislation, which has stalled after being passed in the Judiciary Committee in April, to the Senate floor for a vote.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) blocked his request.

Under the Senate's rules, a senator can come to the Senate floor and ask for consent to get a vote or pass a bill. Any one senator can block their request.

McConnell didn't explain his move from the floor but it came hours after he told reporters that he believed that Mueller should be able to finish his investigation and that he didn't believe the special counsel was in danger of being fired.

"There's been no indication ... that Mueller investigation will not be allowed to finish and it should be allowed to finish. We know how the president feels about the Mueller investigation but he's never said he wants to shut it down," McConnell told reporters during a press conference.

McConell has to be in the top 5 worst people in the history of American politics.

From this morning:

 
And hot off the sausage fingers.

 
guy is nuts. just picture those tweets coming from a old grouch slumped in a recliner watching Fox News.

loser president. loser human being.
 
love to see leftist PC anti-American professors lecturing on the rigged witch hunt
 
McConell has to be in the top 5 worst people in the history of American politics.

He is far and away the most obstructionist leader in US history. If I'm not mistaken, he has the $1,#2,#3, #4, #5 and #6 most bills blocked in a year records.
 
Is he saying he would like to have an actual Nazi in charge or that it would be bad to have one in charge?
