I appreciate the Mitch McConnell jokes, I do, but it appears that they’re trying to stretch this out until after an August 3rd deadline that would mean there wouldn’t be an election to fill his seat until after the midterms, which would be a pretty egregious subversion of democracy. And maybe we should be saying that a little louder.
@ben
After a few days they still don't dare to wake him
@ben
I was expecting this info and didn’t bring myself to look it up. So thanks.
@ben they're just trying to honor Mitch's legacy and do exactly what he would have wanted.
'A' pretty egregious subversion of democracy?
Surely you meant ANOTHER egregious subversion of democracy.😉 😎
@ben Surprise twist: Lindsey Graham dies.
@ben I'm sorry, did you say you wanted MORE #MitchMcConnell jokes? Beep once for yes, twice for no.
@ben democracy? In the US?
@ben isn’t this the plot of a Hollywood movie?
Is offering an indignity to human remains an offence in the USA?
@ben no way to force them to do the right thing
@ben he'd be proud. It's what he did with rbg
@ben As I keep saying, Gov Andy should start McConnell’s senate seat appointment on the assumption he is dead. Let the GOP PROVE he is not, in court. #nothingtolose
@ben They must think we all have severe brain damage if they think people won't all just assume he's dead or indistinguishable from death by August. All the shit they pulled claiming Biden's health was in decline and this motherfucker is probably either a vegetable or people are lying through their teeth about him being alive and we're just supposed to trust them when they say neither is true?
@ben dude its 2026 and you're still invoking democracy when referring to the US. LOL
@systemadminihater I know I know but never give up, you know?
@ben @systemadminihater Never give up hope. The last fascists from Germany are still being hunted down and so far Germany count as a democracy. We have to work on vaccinating the kids against fascism though, most democracys are weak against it.
@ben why?
they don't care about democracy and we need to stop pretending they do.
