Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

To those putting on their dancing shoes... there's no point. He already did all the damage. Short of going back in time nothing will fix what he's done. Unfortunately.
I can hope it is a painful death.
Dick Cheney lived 10 years without a heart. I am not celebrating just yet.
Dick was around for more than 10yrs.
Same. But also I will celebrate his death and mourn his life.
pffft i hope its painful you piece of shit. nothin to be done about it now... damage has been done.
bastard has directly caused the pain and suffering of hundreds of millions of people over decades.
I would feel bad for the cancer that got Mitch Mcconnell
Oh no. I hope it’s something serious.
May he truly understand how awful he was before he bites it.
I hope he has a visceral fear of going to hell because of his actions. The least we can wish for.
Die painfully, reptile.
Rot in hell.
I’ll have to start believing in it. As a treat.
As Mitch's closest relative, and power if attorney... (please no questions) It's time we pull the plug. Go ahead. I consent, take him off life support. It's what he would have wanted. Do it. DO IT NOW!
let's hope it's nothing trivial
Here's hoping for the Republican rule of 3
Oh man. Is one of my reserve bottles getting popped soon?
Linger and suffer, you fucking ghoul
I wouldn't get your hopes up just yet. Some turtles can easily live for over a hundred years.
Die already.
Get wrecked, bozo 🤡
I hope you die slowly and painfully Mitch
O thank God. Now he can't nominate another supreme court justice
I hate Trunt with my prefrontal cortex for his fraud and sedition against the United States of America.
I hate McConnell with my amygdala, which instinctively recognizes him as a sneering, hostile, alien threat to our species.
And when he dies, that particular species of turtle will be extinct. The scientists thought about trying to save the species, but… just look at him. That species is worthless.
Turtles are so much better than he ever was.
Rest in piss.

This POS deserves the worst for what he and his friends did to this country.
We need term limits for Congress, always have. Assuming there's any Congress left in three years.
The minute anyone gets that level of power, they'll do anything to keep it, especially the vulnerable ones.
FINALLY some happy news!
I assume he's at the marine biology hospital? Well, I'm sure he'll be coming out of his shell soon - one way or the other.
Is he dead yet?
Edit: i love how we're all on the same page here. may he die soon. and painfully.
I propose having Donald Trump personally operate on dear Mitch. He has all the knowledge he needs for a...successful outcome.
I kinda want to see him live longer so he can deal with the consequences of his own actions.
...who's going to make him deal with consequences if they haven't by now?
I dunno, would be great if he got locked in syndrome and just had to watch how shitty he turned the world.
Monthly gotta stick the giblets back in the hole checkup.
