Mitch McConnell is a monstrosity.\u00a0 This senile fossil of a crooked politician is a millstone around the necks of Senate Republicans.\u00a0 His highest priority (so he said) is sending as many billions of dollars to Ukraine as is humanly possible.\u00a0 Or even as is inhumanly possible.\u00a0 Why that should be his highest priority, has absolutely nothing to do with American national defense or NATO or even geopolitical strategy.\u00a0 It\u2019s just naked greed.\u00a0 Mitch McConnell gets his money from the defense contractors and the other vested interests that get their money from government contracts.\u00a0 He\u2019s so deep in the pocket of these people that nothing else matters at all but keeping them happy.<\/p>\n<p>So regardless of how many millions of illegal aliens Joe Biden lets into the country or however else the administration punishes normal Americans, McConnell\u2019s highest priority is sending money to Ukraine.\u00a0 Therefore, if the House of Representatives is unwilling to give Biden that money then McConnell has no qualms about announcing publicly that the lack of a deal is Donald Trump\u2019s fault because he\u2019s afraid the deal will also solve the immigration problem.<\/p>\n<p>Now the magnitude of stupidity necessary to believe that Joe Biden suddenly wants to close the border is so enormous that there isn\u2019t even a number yet invented to cover it.\u00a0 A googol is one with a hundred zeroes after it.\u00a0 And a googolplex is ten raised to the googol power.\u00a0 That is:<\/p>\n<p><strong>10<sup>10,000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000,\u200b000,000,000<\/sup><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a really big number.\u00a0 But a googolplex worth of stupid pales into insignificance compared to how moronic you\u2019d have to be to believe in such a thing.\u00a0 And when you find out that the \u201cborder deal\u201d hasn\u2019t even been written down anywhere and just has to be approved sight unseen by the Republicans.\u00a0 Well, what can I say?\u00a0 The only thing stupider than that would be the mittromneyplex (10<sup>MITTROMNEY<\/sup>), a stupid so large that it would a tear a hole in the very fabric of space-time, the absolute black hole of stupid.<\/p>\n<p>So far, the House Republicans have managed to resist being sucked into this monstrous farce of a sell-out.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know if Mike Johnson is doing the right thing or the MAGA wing is holding his feet to the fire.\u00a0 But I think if we witness the Republicans refusing to give the Biden administration the Ukraine money altogether then we will have witnessed an actual Republican victory.\u00a0 Because let\u2019s face it.\u00a0 Even if Joe Biden closed the southern border tighter than a drum that would just be a temporary cosmetic action.\u00a0 He would be doing it during an election year when he knows his immigration policy is as popular as Ebola.\u00a0 On November 6<sup>th<\/sup> the border would just open up again regardless of whether Joe or Trump wins.\u00a0 And of course, Joe wouldn\u2019t do anything to remove the millions upon millions of illegals he\u2019s let in during the last three years.\u00a0 It\u2019s strictly cosmetic.\u00a0 And you can bet that the \u201cdeal\u201d will also include amnesty.\u00a0 What a surprise!<\/p>\n<p>But if the Republicans manage to withhold the Ukraine money, that foreign policy defeat will reverberate around the world.\u00a0 The Ukrainians will be forced to negotiate with the Russians and the European Union will have to come to terms with the reality that Russia is a country that doesn\u2019t bend the knee to Washington.\u00a0 And once Russia doesn\u2019t invade Poland, the EU may start rethinking exactly what their relationship is with Washington and Moscow and why.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Texans and the twenty-five red states that approve of what Texas is doing are breaking new ground on standing up to the malfeasance that Washington practices.\u00a0 And if they\u2019re brave enough to continue on this road, we may see that a hell of a lot of our problems with federal unconstitutional overreach may be at least partially fixable.\u00a0 But either way, the days of buckling under when Mitch McConnell says mean things about you may be behind us for good.\u00a0 Let\u2019s hope that old fossil sinks into a tar pit as soon as possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So,
