Moscow Mitch, the American communist, wants control over January 6th.

An independent counsel was the correct path to take in investigations of the Insurrection of January 6, 2021. Moscow Mitch is still protecting Trump in allowing “The Big Lie” to exist.

There is every indication Moscow Mitch and his Kentucky Oligarch are loyal to the Russian interference in our election, that continues even today, and the permission Donald John Trump gave for the insurrection.

“The Big Lie” has to be defeated at every turn and where it exists in politics exploited to educate Americans about the truth of the Republican Party.

There are insurrectionists in the GOP like that of Hawley who was raised and educated to do exactly what he is doing now, destroy the USA Constitution. There are Americans like Hawley raised and educated to carry out agendas that don’t exactly fit the definition of American freedom. 

An independent council would have brought all those truths to be exposed. Moscow Mitch doesn’t want that, he wants to be famous for instilling right-wing extremist governance over the Rule of Law of the USA Constitution. Moscow Mitch twice defeated the will of the people in removing Trump from office. The second time it was deliberate manipulation.

McConnell along with every other Senator who voted down the independent investigation is automatically suspicious of agendas to undermine the USA Constitution. We know it is true with McConnell who prefers the status quo of the oppression of the people. He caters to his family’s business in China and Russian Oligarchs that build very polluting steal plants in Kentucky. 

It is NOT time for the American people to “move on” from the modern day insurrection master minded by Trump and supported even today with this Senate vote.
