Getting close to "Weekend At Mitchies" as the GOP pretend he's fine and able to function as a U.S. senator. Which he isn't.

Bashear "urges" McConnell?

Urges? Not demands?

Democrats are so weak.

Meanwhile, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are too busy attacking Democratic socialist to mount any offensive against Republicans.

Corporate, AIPAC owned, Democrats are worthless.

As usual Clownshack covers it aptly.

Gov Andy Beshear's letter was a publicity stunt to embarass the Republicans. This so-called "leader" can deploy this comely lass and her partner to ascertain the facts about "Moscow" Mitch: Kentucky's "Columbo".

Gov Andy Beshear (D-KY) is a sniveling, mealy-mouthed opportunist.

"Gov. Andy Beshear declined to label Israel's actions in Gaza as "genocide," instead critiquing the question as a litmus test among Democrats.

"That's becoming one of those new litmus tests that we said we would never do as a party again."

Being against killing people is a "litmus test" for Democrats and him.

No moral compass.
