    Well, we know Trump has no morals, no ethics either and we know that he thinks these things are total bullshit.
    The left is not burning anything. That is the opportunist Libertarian anarchists who are usually young, you know, your age.

    You'll see just how silly next Tuesday. I'll bet that smile turns to a frown, or is it always a frown.

    If this is true, McConnell truly is a POS !

    McConnell Told Trump to Nominate Amy Coney Barrett on Night of Ginsburg's Death, Ex-Chief of Staff Says


    On the evening that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died, Senate Republican Majority Leader Mitch McConnell allegedly encouraged President Donald Trump to nominate Judge Amy Coney Barrett to fill Ginsburg's seat, according to a PBS documentary expected to be broadcast on Tuesday on the series Frontline.

    Barrett's nomination was opposed by many Democrats who felt that no Supreme Court nominee just be appointed before the 2020 presidential election. Democrats also balked at Barrett's conservative leanings, concerned she may try to overturn the Affordable Care Act and Roe v. Wade. According to McConnell's former chief of staff Josh Holmes, McConnell spoke with Trump soon after Ginsburg's passing.

    "McConnell told [Trump] two things," Holmes said in the documentary Supreme Revenge: Battle for the Court. "McConnell said, first, I'm going to put out a statement that says we're going to fill the vacancy. Second, he said, you've gotta nominate Amy Coney Barrett."

    Newsweek reached out to McConnell's office for comment.

    Holmes served as McConnell's chief of staff for three years before managing McConnell's re-election campaign in 2017. Currently, Holmes is the president of the political consulting firm Cavalry, LLC.

    McConnell said in September that filling Ginsburg's seat was an "obligation under the Constitution" which would take place while Trump was still in office. "This current Senate, elected the last time in 2018, will be here until the end of the year and the president will be here until January 20th," McConnell said.

    Some lawmakers disagreed with McConnell's perceived rush to nominate Barrett. Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins said that the decision on a new Supreme Court justice "should be made by the President who is elected on November 3rd."

    ... and just like that, the SCOTUS allowed religious organizations to ignore Covid restrictions in NY.

    Shameful, irresponsible and in many cases fatal. The Trump administration's ability to kill American people will continue years after these clown disappear.
