On Wednesday, December 2, Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell took the floor of the Senate to say goodbye to outgoing Tennessee Republican Senator Lamar Alexander.

The speech was apparently hard for Kentucky's McConnell to deliver—he stopped multiple times because he was too choked up to continue.

Twitter wasn't particularly moved by McConnell's emotion, considering how many Americans have suffered from the pandemic while he's refused to pass any economic relief bills.



It turns out Mitch McConnell's sense of empathy doesn't go beyond the people he personally knows.



Some people were actually glad to know that Mitch McConnell was still capable of feeling.



If McConnell was looking for some sympathy, he wasn't going to find any on Twitter.



Hundreds of thousands of Americans are dead from the pandemic, but his friend retiring is the most emotional McConnell has been in years.


Perhaps, if his constituents are lucky, McConnell may be able to summon up some of this sadness the next time they're in need.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's deposition in the Epstein case had to be paused yesterday after Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert secretly snapped a photo of her and sent it to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson—who then immediately posted it online.

Clinton, who along with her husband, former President Bill Clinton, had insisted on testifying publicly regarding matters tied to the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, faced hours of questioning in a closed-door deposition after Republican Chair of the House Oversight Committee refused to make their depositions public.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Trolls Kash Patel With Epic Zing Over 'Heated Rivalry' Airbnb Listing

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's FBI Director, Kash Patel, is facing backlash over his taxpayer-funded locker room booze fest at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics in Italy.

Patel flew to Italy on a taxpayer-funded FBI plane despite having repeatedly criticized his predecessors for such excursions throughout 2023 and 2024. But an FBI spokesperson claimed it was not a personal trip because Patel met with Italian law enforcement and the U.S. ambassador to Italy during his visit.
