Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell seemingly celebrated the January 6 committee announcement of criminal referrals made against Donald Trump.
The highly partisan committee voted Monday to refer four criminal charges against Trump to the Biden Department of Justice over his alleged actions during the Capitol riot.

The panel suggested that President Biden’s DOJ investigate the former President for inciting insurrection, obstructing an official proceeding, conspiring to defraud the government, and conspiring to make a false statement.
McConnell still seemed pleased with the results, throwing in his lot with the Democrats and the liberal media.
“The entire nation knows who is responsible for that day,” he wrote in a statement following the news. “Beyond that, I don’t have any immediate observations.”

Mitch McConnell Pleased With January 6 Committee’s Criminal Referrals Against Trump
Mitch McConnell, much like the Democrats, is pleased with the January 6 committee’s criminal referrals against former President Trump.
Mitch McConnell, much like the Democrats, believes there was an “insurrection” and that despite Trump urging protesters to make their voices heard “peacefully,” he is to blame.
Most Importantly, Mitch McConnell, much like the Democrats, views the Capitol riot as an opportunity to rid the nation of Trump once and for all.

According to a book titled, “This Will Not Pass,” Mitch was “exhilarated” that Trump had “totally discredited himself” just hours after the Capitol riot on January 6th.
He also took joy that Trump seemingly had ‘committed political suicide’ that day.
“I feel exhilarated by the fact that this fellow finally, totally discredited himself,” McConnell said. “He put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. Couldn’t have happened at a better time.”

Who else gets “exhilarated” at the thought of Trump committing political suicide? Democrats and weepy eunuchs like Adam Kinzinger. How is Mitch McConnell any different?

Trump Responds

Donald Trump responded to the criminal referrals put forth by the January 6 committee on his Truth Social media platform. In one comment he noted the fact that the process of impeachment had already acquitted him of charges involving a so-called insurrection.
“The Fake charges made by the highly partisan Unselect Committee of January 6th have already been submitted, prosecuted, and tried in the form of Impeachment Hoax # 2,” he wrote. “I WON convincingly. Double Jeopardy anyone!”
“These folks don’t get it that when they come after me, people who love freedom rally around me,” Trump added. “It strengthens me. What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.”

In another comment, Trump mocked the committee as the “Democratic Bureau of Investigation.”
The DBI “are out to keep me from running for president because they know I’ll win and that this whole business of prosecuting me is just like impeachment was,” he said, “a partisan attempt to sideline me and the Republican Party.”

As for McConnell melding his statement with the narrative of the January 6 committee, Trump has had numerous choice words for the “Broken Old Crow” in the past.

Trump has repeatedly taken shots at Mitch McConnell ever since the Senate Minority leader vowed to be “done with” him.
The former President described Mitch as an “absolute loser” who has been giving Democrats “everything they want” and pressed the GOP to oust the Republican leader.
With his latest statement on the criminal referrals, McConnell once again gave Democrats everything they want. A soundbite and affirmation that the committee’s work wasn’t a sham.
The GOP needs to repeal and replace him from leadership.

Turtle’s finances need investigating.
MItch McConnel also gets millions of dollars every year from China via his high ranking Chinese father in law, so of COURSE he’s going to side with the Democrats.
ALSO, the J-6 committee iling that criminal referral was not only illegal, but potentially threw a wrench into whatever charges the DoJ might have wanted to hit Trump with. Now, if the DoJ charges Trump with ANYTHING, it’s going to look completely partizan
McConnell epitomises all that is badly wrong with the Senate and Congress components of the once upon a time Republican Party.
Sadly he is not alone – there are a good few RINO’s to be stuffed and put in glass cages as a warning to future generations of the dangers of complacency and personal greed.
McConnell is long overdue for retirement
Mitch is a Slime ball. He is a traitor in the first degree. During war time people like him were executed. That’s what he deserves.
Sending falsified criminal referrals from a kangaroo court to a corrupt Department of Justice will yield NOTHING! Trump will again be declared Not Guilty of the charges against him. Why? Because he called for peaceful protests. The Capital Police invited the protestors inside the building. It was the leftist Antifa rioters who did the damage and Pelosi who refused to have the National Guard on hand, knowing that there was the possibility of violence. She knew that Antifa and FBI agents would infiltrate the protestors to cause the democrats and MSM so-called insurrection. Why wasn’t she called as a witness? Because then the truth might come out. The entire J6 commission was a sham.
?? supporting the illegitimate and wreckless Jan 6 committee, supporting the Dem’s latest spending bill for NO GOOD REASON, what’s next??
how can the Republicans continue with this treacherous leader? his support of Biden and the whims of the Democratic Party KILLED the recent election for the GOP. the Democrats play for keeps while jackasses like McConnell fail to show any guts, or any allegience to his Party members either, for that matterl. He’s no better than a Liz Cheney, he’s POISON
Mitch thinks that if the DOJ charges President Trump his probs are over…the DOJ will most likely decide that this political farce is going to bring them more trouble than any of those political dipwads are worth…They know this from experience and watching the grandstanding of a Non Constitutional assembly of non law prosecutors………
The Swamp and Mitch McConnell are one and the same thing. The USA cannot survive with the Swamp intact – McConnell cannot survive without the Swamp. Go Figure !!!
Go away Mitch far far away
Mitch McConnell has been a knife in every FREEDOM LOVING AMERICAN! He has never done or stand up for those who love this country. He has been a secret weapon in the GOP for the Democrat party. Kentucky need to replaced the old crow! You can bet he part of the CORRUPT CONGRESS.
PUT HIM OUT OF HIS MISERY
McConnell is just as corrupt as anyone in Congress. Re-appointing him to his position just how corrupt Congress is as a whole
If there is anything worse than a gutless, C.S. leader, it’s one who is also like TRAITOR Mich!
Mitch McConnel is gutless POC whom can not be counted on for anything. He constantly sticks his finger in the air to see which way the wind is blowing at the moment.
Mitch has bad influence linking to democrats side favoring his own preferences for a longtime no longer side with Republicans image as house majority leader after all he should go to China with her million dollars wife retired .
