Pretending to help
I actually think McConnell is more evil than Trump:
McConnell now circulating a plan with:

– no state & local aid;
– only 1 additional month in PUA & PEUC for jobless Americans;
– no additional stimulus checks;
– Sen. Cornyny's proposed liability shield;
– no money for transit agencies
…among other non-starters for Dems https://t.co/DD5Rd0Dd1t

AG Barr tells the AP that the U.S. Justice Dept. has not uncovered evidence of widespread voter fraud that would change the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. https://t.co/JpVLRttJkK

Just so it's clear: Bill Barr appointing a special counsel now is a POLITICAL INVESTIGATION-it allows the special counsel to undermine the Biden admin at every term. He will try to depose Biden, subpoena records etc. He should be fired immediately by Biden's AG!

Oh, and just for dessert:
Note: This pardon for bribery scheme probably came up at Barr’s meeting today with Trump. Trump MUST have already gotten the donation.

James Corden and friends:

Rent gets spent
