He is still kryptonite in polite society, and always will be. No institution or law firm will have anything to do with him, no matter what he does or says now. It would be a good time for him to retire and slink off to whatever swamp he came from.

I bet he knew he was going to get sued, lose, and be forced to pay, which would have been more humiliating than just quickly and quietly paying out.

It's not like he was using his own money anyway, those were just campaign funds.

colin powell was a good soldier who was willing to lie for dear leader of the time, and help push us into and illegal war or aggression against iraq. His legacy will always be tainted by being a lying war criminal. Just like everyone else who voted for that illegal war, including biden and clinton. everyone who voted for that war deserves to be hauled before the ICC for their actions.

no matter how wildly popular an issue like this is, every single republican in congress and the majority of democrats in congress will continue to represent the interests of their constituents. By constituents, I mean the 0.1% who pay to get them elected, not the people who vote for them.

The vaccine mandates have the great effect of removing the stupidest and most dangerous people from an organization.

If they could institute a vaccine mandate for all airline passengers, then the disruptions on airplanes would go way down.

In other news, productivity is up 10%, and hateful speech and disinformation is down 25%.

The anti-covid-only-vaxers will jump through hoops to explain how this is different, but it is not. All vaccines have operated the same way. Never ever in the history of vaccines has there been any delayed adverse reaction. If there is a bad reaction, which is always quite rare, it happens almost immediately, and never weeks or months in the future. Not ever in the history of vaccines. Not when George Washington had his vaccine mandate, and never before or since.

What is different this time is that many more people are in a cult. The first rule of cults is that you don't realize you are in a cult.

Ask you local anti-covid vaxer why they would get other vaccines for their children and not the covid vaccine, and watch them squirm.

I'm sure glad my mom isn't a member of his mom's cult.

I would put money on the fact that his mom took him in for all the required vaccinations when he was a kid, just like every other mom did before the zombies ate their brains.

From his remarks, he is obviously somewhat troubled by the results of his cult, but he is still not questioning the cult its self. WOW. Freedumb.

What America needs is democrats who are willing to play hardball.

Call out the republicans publicly for what they are, anarchists who enjoy seeing people suffer.

Make people's personal choices have consequences. No flight privileges for unvaccinated people. No hospital entry for unvaccinated people.

keep paying our bills regardless of debt limit legislation, and make the republicans sue to stop it, then drag it out in the courts for years if they do sue.

So how is that just-in-time production working out for ya? The corporate world has figured out how to save pennies by reducing inventory and scouting out the cheapest labor in the third world countries, and now they are having a bit of trouble with their convoluted supply chains and shipping. At least we were able to trade all of our good manufacturing jobs for cheap crap at walmart.

I always tell people to stay away from christians, them is a bad people.

Atheists have nobody they can get automatic forgiveness from after leading a life of screwing over their neighbors, so they generally don't do such evil things. christians on the other hand...

just make a rule that only vaccinated people are allowed inside hospitals. Set up mobile field hospitals in the parking lot for the freedumb crowd.

that is a small price for other people to pay in a reckless attempt to get his job of majority leader back.

Hopefully Biden will just mint a few trillion dollar coins, and put mcconnell on the obverse and newt gingrich on the reverse, and then say to the American people that this is the new Biden exception to the stupid gingrich/mcconnel rule that republicans always sabotage America for their own evil ends.

Any idiot who sterilizes themselves before procreating is Darwin-award eligible.
I wonder if they could have a class action type Darwin award?

Wow, they just continue to own the libs in unimaginable ways. Most of the rest of the world just considers this to be another stupid self-own.

You have to admire their dedication. If someone were to try to make a movie about their stupidity, everyone would consider it to be unbelievable.

Methinks that they have something that they need to hide here. The folks on the committee need to be loudly and publicly asking what they are trying to hide, then get the records and show what they were trying to hide. These folks probably aren't all that good at criming.

I guess he totally owned the libs somehow? Showed them good how to not get a vaccination (even in private) and back that up with no mask wearing. Well played mister lib-owner. well played.
