Are they are going to spend two hours debating each of the six states the Rs want to complain about? If so, this will take all day.

(I had to turn it off when Scalise started talking. I just can't with these people.)

Mitch McConnell's greatest fear has always been minorities, so it's a real punch to the gut for him that he's now the leader of one.

I can't believe that this quote is from Mitch McConnell: “We cannot simply declare ourselves a national board of elections on steroids. The voters, the courts and the states have all spoken. If we overrule them, it would damage our Republic forever.”

And, unbelievably, is being the voice of reason in the Senate right now.

Starting his PR/damage control with a bang!

it's a pretty sad day for democracy when Mitch McConnell has to be a voice of reason. I mean, I don't believe for a second he means anything he says there, but I'll take it over the utter nonsense from all those cultists.

Sounds like Minority Mitch has accepted the Georgia results. Next to watch out for is his Russian handlers who may not like his new "everyone calm down!" strategy.

Does this mean I have to give Slimy Mitch a modicum of respect? Is this still 2020? WTF?

If you're going to steal material from twitter or other corners of the internet, at least have the decency to credit the source.

The divide between the right and the left is getting wider all the time. Civil war seems inevitable, whether now or in the near future.

I mean when it's the obvious joke I would've been more surprised if other people hadn't made it.

I haven't yet seen it elsewhere, though!
