McConnell's plan is to destroy the Unions of the Public Employees

that are risking their lives right now. He wants States to declare bankruptcy to get rid of Union contracts and pensions.

This is pure evil and should be used against him in the Fall.

Is to destroy everything the progressive movement of the early to mid 20th century built and return all the power to the rich. It is really sick.

I wish Biden would come out against this stuff big time and promise another new deal for the American people.

Mitch is pretty well toothless today. Mnuchin is negotiating with Nancy. The 2 of them have pretty well taken over. Mnuchin can convince Trump it is to his benefit. McConnell really has no choice but to bring it to the Senate floor. Mnuchin is enough of a negotiator that he and Nancy can get things done.

the equal and opposite reaction.

Labor unions thrived right after the Great Depression. We seem to be heading there again.

Will Biden be our generation's FDR?
