“The Letter” — Amy McGrath for U.S. Senate

Kindly donate to Amy McGrath's Senate Campaign (click here), I am certain Russia is hard at work to defeat her.

This is the reception a Marine Veteran receives from the leader of the US Senate as she runs in opposition of McConnell obstruction which has alienated the US Senate from the needs of the American people.

The idea McConnell would double down on being the Grim Reaper as a campaign slogan which includes Amy McGrath's name is disgusting and threatening. McConnell has lost all honor in his politics.

Amy McGrath has an important task to end the corrupt reign of "Moscow" Mitch McConnell. He is not simply an obstructionist to the well being of the American people, he is a friend to Russia and is corrupt to the core.

In December 2018, (click here) the Trump administration announced it would lift sanctions from three companies linked to Russian oligarch and longtime Manafort business partner Oleg Deripaska. The sanctions were originally put in place to respond to Russia’s malicious cyber activities and attempts to subvert Western democracies.

Instead of punishing Deripaska, however, the deal negotiated by the Treasury Department freed him from hundreds of millions of dollars in debt—and allowed him and his allies to keep majority ownership of his most important companies. When a bipartisan group of Senators s­ought to block this deal, Mitch McConnell and the majority of his Republican colleagues voted it down.

Then, just three months later, one of these companies announced a $200 million investment into an aluminum mill in Mitch McConnell’s backyard.

That’s what a quid pro quo looks like....

Yes, you read that right, "Moscow" Mitch is in bed with the Russians.

When the US Senate measures to end the corruption by the US Treasury, the Senators issues a statement:

December 19, 2018

...“Today’s announcement, (click here) which comes as a result of negotiated changes to the En+ corporate structure, does not change the fact that Mr. Deripaska, his employees, and his companies work at Vladimir Putin’s behest and operate as de facto representatives of the Russian government - a government that has occupied and intimidated its neighbors, sought to disrupt free and fair elections, violated nuclear treaties, and continued to wage influence campaigns to undermine western democracies, including our own.  While the Treasury Department has made great strides in reducing Mr. Deripaska’s ownership state in En+ and making beneficial changes to the corporate governance, this deal will require constant monitoring to ensure that neither Mr. Deripaska nor the Russian government violate the terms of the agreement. The addition of Victor Boyarkin, one of Mr. Deripaska’s key lieutenants, to the sanctions list will help counter some of Russia’s malign influence efforts, and is a welcome step.  We will continue monitoring these sanctions’ effects, and to hold accountable those who would violate them.”

This is not a minor issue. What McConnell is engaged in is wrong and detrimental to the democracy of the USA and the freedoms we all enjoy.
