I would feel bad for the cancer that got Mitch Mcconnell

[-] athatet@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 month ago

Don’t feel bad for the heroes. Root for them.

Dick Cheney lived 10 years without a heart. I am not celebrating just yet.

[-] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 74 points 1 month ago

Dick was around for more than 10yrs.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

Same. But also I will celebrate his death and mourn his life.

[-] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 14 points 1 month ago

And 70 years without a soul.

[-] Hayduke@lemmy.world 114 points 1 month ago

Oh no. I hope it’s something serious.

finally, some good fucking news.

[-] RhondaSandTits@lemmy.sdf.org 67 points 1 month ago

“He is in regular contact with his staff and looks forward to returning to Senate business.”

Just fucking retire, you despicable old cunt.

McConnell, the Senate’s third-oldest member,

WHAT?!? There's 2 senators older than him.

He plans to retire from Congress when his current term concludes in January 2027.

He wont live that long

My theory is somewhere deep inside himself he knows that once he loses access to his power and position, and the obsequious self-assurance it provides, all that's left will be to confront the abject moral abyss that is his soul. So he's just trying to die ignorant and shameless in office.

[-] fedupwithbureaucracy@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

Bernie Sanders is a year older than him and Chuck Grassley is 92 fuckin’ years old. Sad to say that he isn’t even the oldest senator to have ever served

[-] vladmech@lemmy.world 54 points 1 month ago

Oh man. Is one of my reserve bottles getting popped soon?

[-] Arghblarg@lemmy.ca 49 points 1 month ago

To those putting on their dancing shoes... there's no point. He already did all the damage. Short of going back in time nothing will fix what he's done. Unfortunately.

[-] TipRing@lemmy.world 65 points 1 month ago

His death doesn't reverse things, but the world will still be a better place without his presence.

It's a shame he'll age out before the guillotines could get built.

Why is he still clinging to the vestiges of his power and not resting at home? These people are fucking pathological.

Fuck this guy. Fuck everything he's ever done. I hope he rests in piss. Representative of one of the most impoverished states in America, married to a billionaire, shit his pants before Trump made it cool.

This vile ghoul ushered in the death of America by breaking key covenants in governance, and while he's vaguely expressed some sort of remorse since over the years, there will be no forgiveness or peace for him on his deathbed. He will only be hailed by a cabal of grinning sycophants encircling his frail shell, chanting "you made this all possible" as they lean in to devour his rotting carcass. Thanks for nothing, Mitch.

As someone who isn't even from or in the US: may he soon rest in piss, the absolute cunt.

May he truly understand how awful he was before he bites it.

I hope he has a visceral fear of going to hell because of his actions. The least we can wish for.

[-] supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz 23 points 1 month ago

I hope you die slowly and painfully Mitch

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

This motherfucker ushered in Trump and his fascist regime. May he rest in piss.

I hope it hurts when he dies

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Is he dead yet?

Edit: i love how we're all on the same page here. may he die soon. and painfully.

[-] Jax@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I'd like to remind everyone here that, while he was laying the groundwork for the current political climate of the U.S., he had 3 daughters and two wives. He's old enough that the upper part of his left leg is paralyzed due to polio.

We are seeing a resurgence of measles, thanks to men like this — who got to live full lives while fucking us all over. Who knows, maybe we'll see one for polio!

Cheer for his death if you must, he has already won.

The former Senate majority leader missed crucial Senate votes on Monday and Tuesday, Politico reported.

At least there's that

I assume he's at the marine biology hospital? Well, I'm sure he'll be coming out of his shell soon - one way or the other.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
