...McConnell* seemed to IMMEDIATELY have access to a large amount of money to fuel his Super PAC. Those funds came from somewhere... I suspect Saudi Arabia and Russia.

all the while lying to his constituents about everything.

First, it was big tobacco, then it was big healthcare. Now, it's whatever the vast Repug financial web can suck into the right-wing system and they don't care where it comes from.

His hypocrisy is boundless and always has been since he first ran for public office.....

As all Democrats in Kentucky have been saying for a long time: "Ditch Mitch"..... .......
