True. I rarely agreed with Rand way back when he was still a libertarian - more often with dad Ron - but I basically never agree with Rand since he became just another RW RepuQ, usually not even on healthcare issues.billy.pilgrim wrote: ↑Thu Sep 07, 2023 10:05 pmI'm not sure if any of us have ever agreed with paul, thus my broken clock reference.

Sen Josh Hawley (R-MO) is another broken clock we never agree with.billy.pilgrim wrote: ↑Thu Sep 07, 2023 10:05 pmI'm not sure if any of us have ever agreed with paul, thus my broken clock reference.
Mitch McConnell warns GOP senators they’ll face ‘incoming’ if they back Hawley bill to limit corporate giving in campaigns
Democracy-hating traitor, Moscow Mitch, longtime controller of a powerful super PAC.
Ironically, whether truly medically unfit or just another elitist Vietnam coward, Mitch never faced ‘incoming’ in his life.
... Hawley’s new bill, called the Ending Corporate Influence on Elections Act, is aimed at reversing the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision that loosened campaign finance laws – an effort that aligns the conservative Missouri Republican with many Democrats. Hawley’s bill would ban publicly traded corporations from making independent expenditures and political advertisements – and ban those publicly traded companies from giving money to super PACs.
In an interview, Hawley defended his bill and said that corporate influence should be limited in elections.
“I think that’s wrong,” Hawley told CNN. “I think it’s wrong as an original matter. I think it’s warping our politics, and I see no reason for conservatives to defend it. It’s wrong as a matter of the original meaning of the Constitution. It is bad for our elections. It’s bad for our voters. And I just think on principle, we ought to be concerned.” ...

Hmm, which toilet to wish for?Who will replace Mitch McConnell? The 3 Republicans who are likeliest to succeed him
... Here are the three Republican senators — all named John — who might replace McConnell as the leader of their party in the upper chamber of Congress.
Sen. John Thune (SD, 62) - Most Moscow Mitch-ish? Could be worse:
Sen. John Cornyn (TX, 71) - At least he wouldn't last long.
Sen. John Barrasso (WY, 71) - At least he wouldn't last long.
Other possibilities
Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton
Florida Sen. Rick Scott - a billy.pilgrim favorite
All White, all male, of course I wonder who the House "Freedom" Caucus would approve of, maybe Cotton or Josh Hawley.

So there truly are no "mainstream" repugs left? The bunch of empty suits formerly known as "Republicans" must be ummm "led" by drooling moon-barkers? Damn, I just went down the list: Romney is the only one left as far as I can tell. Doomed.

Surprisingly, there are 9 RepuQ women in the Senate, including neoplacebo's MarshaMarshaMarsha Blackburn:

Shame on them, but I'm sure at least one is capable of leadership. Then, there's non-White Tim Scott.
The Dems have 15 women, and there's Indy Sinema.

How exciting, we could have a clusterfuck of a leader election to rival the house.
