U.S. Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell warned on Tuesday against trying to rescind some spending from a $1.3 trillion appropriations bill passed into law in March, an idea that has been promoted by House of Representatives Republican leader Kevin McCarthy.
“We had an agreement with the Democrats” on the spending bill, McConnell, a Republican, said in an interview with Fox News when asked about reports that President Donald Trump wanted to cut a major portion of the spending.

THIS is WHY you might see a Blue Wave in November.
Because DEMOCRATS still run the show. Even when they’re in a firm minority.
So.....what’s the point of showing up to vote for Republicans then?

Twenty trillion and counting in debt and that is this moldy turtle's biggest concern.
They'd betray any "agreement" he had with them in a heartbeat, and he'd do nothing but sniffle and crawl into his shell.
What they must have on him!

Is there any truth to the story that old scr*tum-neck ‘somehow’ received a National Guard slot [at the height of the Viet Nam war, no less], but soon thereafter was court-martialed for some sort of deviant behavior, then quietly released from his military obligation due to the strenuous machinations of his mentor, some senior senator from Kentucky? In short, court-martialed and discharged immediately.

In short, court-martialed and discharged immediately, sometime in 1967.

I don’t trust McCarthy for a minute.
He is a swamp creature making a futile gesture toward spending restraint to try to fool people into going along with him as Ryan’s replacement.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
McConnell’s found an agreement he wants to keep . . . with Democrats.
Sheesh.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Senator McConnell says he’ll resign if they pare back spending law , LOL
To: Oldeconomybuyer
The term “Dreamers” should be about we the people dreaming about the day we are rid of McConnell, and Ryan.
