..continueAnd in the course of the last two years, theres not been a moment where Mitch McConnell had any interest whatsoever in dealing with this problem, continued Heilemann. I have to say, watching this today, any responsible person of either party would watch this and say, If they hadnt already noticed, we have a problem here. And I dont think Mitch McConnell is going to do a damn thing about it in the weeks or months ahead. I dont think anything changed that. Even though I think the illustration of the Russia problem is vivid and powerful.

Talked about the Deripaska shenanigans - ending the sanctions and getting the aluminum plant built in Kentucky. Also the sleazy stuff Elaine Chow is doing as secretary of transportation to help her husband get reelected.

(36,631 posts)8. sorry, I saw "all this corruption"
Don't know if any are specific to McConnell.
The closest might be Ways And Means, Financial Services, and Homeland Security investigating the easing of sanctions on Deripaska's companies.
