    Here is Mitch McConnell saying he will not permit a Senate floor vote on the bipartisan bill now moving through Senate Judiciary Committee that would heighten protections against Trump forcing an arbitrary firing of Mueller. pic.twitter.com/SVOYPeVdxk

        Every Democrat should announce that they will block all business in the Senate until Mueller is protected. This is not a dictatorship and McConnell is not a 1-person government. This has gone way too far.

        Replying to @chrisgeidner

        McConnell cannot entirely block a vote on legislation to protect Mueller IF (i) he wants to pass another bill, (ii) Mueller bill is offered as amendment to other bill, & (iii) there are 2 GOP Sens (along w/ 49 Dems) willing to block other measure until Mueller bill is considered.

        Senate speak: If McConnell "fills the amendment tree" in an attempt to preclude other amendments, 51 Senators can table the "tree" again and again until an amendment is allowed.

        Sounds like obstruction, just like Ryan said about a House vote. Can we add both of these clowns to the obstruction soup simmering on Mueller’s front burner?

        McConnell’s family got busted running cocaine. Putin’s plane was caught running cocaine. Is it a stretch to ask if they are all in on this?

        Mitch McConnell (same with Rand Paul) can't even improve the situation for the citizens of Kentucky, one of the poorest states of the nation. Just ask the teachers, families of students. Last thing to expect of him is to hold a billionaire accountable.
