Because, he’s a TRAITOR.
Plain and simple.
Never forget…during the 2016 Election Cycle, when President Obama was first alerted at the attempts of the Russians to interfere, he wanted to make a bi-partisan statement, informing the American people of what was happening, and that, AS AMERICANS, both Democrat and Republicans were standing up against this threat from Russia. He did not…BECAUSE MCCONNELL WOULDN’T GO ALONG WITH IT.
The man is a TRAITOR to this country. Can’t be surprising, since, on the night of Barack Obama’s Inauguration, in the midst of the greatest economic downturn this country had seen since The Great Depression, he met with other GOPers to form a plan to block anything that President Obama would present. No matter how it would help the country. He chose ECONOMIC TREASON against this country in 2009. And, ACTUAL TREASON against it in 2016.
New Election Security Bills Face a One-Man Roadblock: Mitch McConnell
By Nicholas Fandos
· June 7, 2019
WASHINGTON — A raft of legislation intended to better secure United States election systems after what the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, called a “sweeping and systematic” Russian attack in 2016 is running into a one-man roadblock in the form of the Senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
The bills include a Democratic measure that would send more than $1 billion to state and local governments to tighten election security, but would also demand a national strategy to protect American democratic institutions against cyberattacks and require that states spend federal funds only on federally certified “election infrastructure vendors.” A bipartisan measure in both chambers would require internet companies like Facebook to disclose the purchasers of political ads.Another bipartisan Senate proposal would codify cyberinformation-sharing initiatives between federal intelligence services and state election officials, speed up the granting of security clearances to state officials and provide federal incentives for states to adopt paper ballots.
But even bipartisan coalitions have begun to crumble in the face of the majority leader’s blockade. Mr. McConnell, long the Senate’s leading ideological opponent to federal regulation of elections, has told colleagues in recent months that he has no plans to consider stand-alone legislation on the matter this term, despite clamoring from members of his own conference and the growing pressure from Democrats who also sense a political advantage in trying to make the Republican response to Russia’s election attack look anemic.

Watching Maddow. She is talking about Shanahan. The son beat the mother’s azz with a baseball bat. Left her in a pool of blood, and ripped out the phone chord, so nobody could call 9-1-1. 😲😲😲
Shanahan wrote a letter as to why the son shouldn’t face charges.🤔🤔
He beat his Mom with a fkn baseball bat….

for 2020, the Democrats should try and get the following on the ballot:
1. Medicaid Expansion (for states without it) – with no way for the legislature to negate/limit it as they have done in Utah
2. Former felon voting rights restoration – with no work around and the possibility of a poll tax, as has been done in Florida
3. Automatic voter registration /Same day registration/No reason Absentee Ballots/Expansive Early Voting
4. The National Popular Vote Winner will get the Electoral College votes
These are our issues, should be put on as many ballots as possible

Why the Right Abandons Democracy in Favor of Authoritarianism
by Nancy LeTourneau
June 18, 2019
………………
Adam Serwer has a similar take.
This willingness to eschew democracy in favor of authoritarianism was forecast by Zachary Roth before Trump’s election. He noted that, recognizing that they were about to become a permanent minority, Republicans decided that “being outnumbered doesn’t have to mean losing.” The strategies employed to undermine democracy included voter suppression, gerrymandering, fighting for the involvement of dark money in politics, judicial engagement, and something called pre-emption, by which red states overruled laws passed by more progressive local communities.
Racist juries are the problem. They’ve enabled a culture of police violence. Cops are serving and protecting white supremacy. They don’t even care how it looks or sounds anymore. This is why cops shoot unarmed Black men 16, 20, 41, 55 times because no juries will convict them.

I think I wrote here on Sunday that I had found WISEGUY on Amazon Prime. Well, after a small binge on Sunday, I did a couple of episodes yesterday. Almost to the end of the Sonny Steelgrave arc. The show and its writing holds up after 30 years. It was original when it came out, and I am enjoying it.
I’m not familiar with this series. Is it gansta/mafia?
