"Moscow" Mitch, the Senate Majority leader with a Russian oligarch in his back pocket, is proud of his title of The Grim Reaper.

So now that the Senate Majority Leader has to look at the financial damage a virus the president wanted to make disappear into the flu statistics has done to the Blue States he doesn't want to have anything to do with it. He wants the states with the largest populations of the country to declare bankruptcy. Sounds like Trump has McConnell is his back pocket.

Everything is politics with McConnell and Trump. If a Democrat yelled they were going to be hit by an oncoming truck as they cross the street, they would first attempt to decide if it was a political advantage.

Senate Majority (click here) Leader Mitch McConnell calls himself the "Grim Reaper," vowing to kill whichever bill that he labels as socialist legislation, including a bill that pushes for election security.

McConnell absolutely is a partisan hack. That is all he is. He is probably the most corrupt member of congress between his spouse and his family which think nothing of coveting the federal treasury or the Chinese treasury, too.

Elaine Chao, (click here) the transportation secretary, oversees the American maritime industry. Her family’s shipping company, Foremost Group, has deep ties to the Chinese elite.

Most of the commerce by the Foremost Group is commodities to China. China has sponsored the growth of the company and the building of some of it's ships. That is probably just interesting and whether there are ethical issues isn't really clear, although it is known Foremost donates to the couple and McConnell's campaign regularly.

When the Department of Transportation Secretary assigns a special envoy to find spending for Kentucky it is a huge ethics violation. But, what difference does it make? None. She is still there and so is Mitch.

The Transportation Department under Secretary Elaine Chao designated a special liaison to help with grant applications and other priorities from her husband Mitch McConnell’s state of Kentucky, paving the way for grants totaling at least $78 million for favored projects as McConnell prepared to campaign for reelection.

Chao’s aide Todd Inman, who stated in an email to McConnell’s Senate office that Chao had personally asked him to serve as an intermediary, helped advise the senator and local Kentucky officials on grants with special significance for McConnell — including a highway-improvement project in a McConnell political stronghold that had been twice rejected for previous grant applications....
