Politician
Jan. 19, 2022
Tweet: One year after Pres. Biden promised to heal & unite America, top Democrats are trying to use fear & anger to smash the Senate. They want to silence millions of Americans' voices and strip entire states of any say in government. All to set up a partisan rewrite of election law.
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Jan. 18, 2022
Tweet: Last week, the same Democrats who've been raging against the Senate's 60-vote threshold used the 60-vote threshold to block Russia sanctions. Today, they're back to saying it's an evil rule. They've quit even pretending this is principled. They just want total one-party power.
