"SNIP.....

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) issued a statement accusing U.S. corporations that oppose the GOP-sponsored law curbing voting access in Georgia of using “economic blackmail” to spread “disinformation,” Axios reports.

Said McConnell: “We are witnessing a coordinated campaign by powerful and wealthy people to mislead and bully the American people.”

2. Nobody in Congress has done more to lead a coordinated campaign by

powerful and wealthy people to mislead and bully the american people in the last two administrations than Mitch McConnell. GOP love being hypocrites.

3. Hey, Mitch, you evil, shriveled turtle, aren't corporations supposed to be people?

And don't people get to not do business with those they disagree with? Isn't that the free market at work?

4. Yes, Republicans believe corporations are people and have 1st amendment rights

But no, corporations as people do not have 1st amendment rights say Republicans.

5. "...three minutes after this statement, the Senator spontaneously combusted."

6. LOL!!! That's fucking hilarious!

What a goddamn hypocrite. I guess all those massive campaign donations he and his ilk have been getting from those very same people, in exchange for legislative favors, are not "economic blackmail." Go fuck yourself, Mitch, you withered, old sack of shit.

7. Got two words for you McTurtle:

Citizens United

Corporations are people, remember?!

And people in this country have a right to be vocal about their support or opposition to political actions and legislation.

Can’t have it both ways you sorry SOB.
