Kentucky Republicans have tried to take away Governor Beshear’s ability to appoint Mitch McConnell’s replacement. Beshear says he’s considering ignoring the state legislature and appointing a Democrat to replace McConnell anyway.
He believes the law is unconstitutional, that Kentucky’s constitution gives him the authority, and that he’s prepared to test the GOP on it.
This is exactly how Democrats should be fighting.
If it turns out that he was lying- when claiming to have a 20 minute conversation with Mitch McConnell = should CNN instantly fire Scott Jennings?
Your Thoughts
January 6th is when Lindsey went on the floor and said he was done with Trump. Then Kevin McCarthy, then Mitch McConnell (all in this clip).
They could have walked away and followed through with the impeachment.
Don't ever forget that it's been the Republicans in Congress who have enabled this for the last 10 years.
Wilson: I guarantee you there are 10 reporters in D.C. right now who know exactly what Mitch McConnell’s medical status is. Maybe more.
They’re not reporting it.
We know from people who are very clear that he’s in a certain rehab wing for acute cardiac failure, all this stuff, at the hospital. He is alive. Our source is not able to say if he’s conscious or cogent.
I don’t think the magical 20-minute conversations about Mitch McConnell—you know, “He’s perfectly fine”—are real. I think we’re going to find out all that was a lie because they want to run out the clock on the special election question in Kentucky.
If I’m Andy Beshear, brother, just declare the election. And if they want to prove that Mitch McConnell is alive and well, go do it. But that is not something I think they can prove.
When Joe Biden’s health scares started to mount up, we had 24-hour-a-day coverage. It never stopped. They were beating the White House down every single day about it.
When the July 7 debate happened in 2024, that was a clock that went off because the media drove the story. They pushed and pushed and pushed. They turned over every rock.
We don’t see that coverage about Trump. We don’t see that coverage about McConnell.
Your reminder that Lindsey Graham, along with Mike Crapo, Chuck Grassley, Jerry Moran, Mitch McConnell, John Thune and Roger Wicker, voted to convict Bill Clinton for lying about an affair - but acquitted Trump for attempting a coup.
The Trump Administration is now obstructing a New Mexico investigation into sex trafficking at Epstein's private ranch.
I simply can't IMAGINE as to why.

There is exactly ONE active criminal investigation into Epstein's ranch.
It's stuck.
Not for lack of evidence...because the DOJ won't hand it over.
New piece.

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: In a stunning admission, the FBI just confirmed to me the existence of training videos instructing FBI analysts on what to redact in the Epstein Files. I’ll show you the letter and discuss the massive implications in one hour. Link below: https://t.co/XLYGLMvglU
The FBI still has 40 terabytes of video seized from Jeffrey Epstein’s properties.
The public has never seen it.
Survivors have told me the full release matters because they were drugged and cannot remember the full scope of what was done to them—or who all was there.
The evidence exists.
So why are survivors still being denied the truth?
Ana Navarro: “Everything Donald Trump touches turns to shit. In addition to being the worst president in US history, he is also the worst luck charm in America. When he attended Game 5 of the World Series in [2019], the Nationals lost. When he attended the Commanders game in November of 2025, the Commanders lost by 22 points. When he attended Game 3 of the NBA Finals, the Knicks lost. When he got involved in the World Cup, the US team lost”
