Mitch McConnel Bravely Tells The Corporate Elite To Stay Out Of Politics

[evenflow1969]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell lashed out at corporate America on Monday, warning CEOs to stay out of the debate over a new voting law in Georgia that has been criticized as restricting votes among minorities and the poor.

"Corporations will invite serious consequences if they become a vehicle for far-left mobs to hijack our country from outside the constitutional order," McConnell told a news conference in his home state of Kentucky.

Big business ties with Republicans began fraying under former President Donald Trump's leadership and the party's focus on voting restrictions has soured businesses embracing diversity as key to their work force and customer base. Major Georgia employers Coca-Cola and Delta Air Lines have spoken out against the law signed by Governor Brian Kemp, and Major League Baseball pulled the 2021 All-Star Game out of the state over the law strengthening identification requirements for absentee ballots and making it a crime to offer food or water to voters waiting in line.

Uh oh, Mitch is talking tough again. Watch out Coke.

Lol. I guess corps are no longer people. They sure wanted corporations to have their say when passing citizens United.

The courts disagree with you.

They don’t but you probably think that based on a very superficial knowledge of how Masterpiece did at the Supreme Court.

Did he win?

 

[colfax_m]

Did he win?

That’s the superficial level understanding I’m talking about.

 

[Cecilie1200]

I wish I could instill a reign of terror upon y'all, trust me.

Spoken like someone who has no idea who Robespierre was. Thanks for settling that.

 

[Cecilie1200]

(smiles an evil smile)

You wish you could do what now? Nobody's scared of you.

He's actually wishing that he could unleash something that will end up killing him, and he's so uneducated, he doesn't know it.

Watching leftists wish for their own destruction is kinda funny.

 

[Jets]

Sen McConnell is a vacillating hack.

He had zero problems with corporations up until now...

None of those changes to procedures or clarifications changed any law as alleged, nor did they led to any fraud.

I don't recall claiming that the voting rules that were altered by the Secretaries of State changed the law. Indeed they were illegal to be begin with. The very fact that they were illegal means that election fraud did occur, sponsored by the Secretaries of State. They all should be in prison.

Trumps legal team did, and it was a claim parroted by more than few talking heads on Faux.

That's a broad claim. Got something specific?

 

[Nostra]

Did he win?

Dodge.

why would you do that?

Hmmmm.....

 

[schmidlap]

So let me get this straight.

Corporations are taking away our first amendment rights by censoring Conservatives on social media, and that is Ok.

But a Republican tells corporations they need to straighten up and he becomes the threatening fascist insurgent?

LOL.

Corporate America have gone to war with the GOP, and with over 70 million Americans.

God forbid they get angry about it.

How does it feel to lick the arse of the top 1% as a Lefty?

Corporations are now getting uppity, refusing to be forelock-tugging chattels on the GOP's planation any longer.

McConnell is still eager to take the cash from the private sector, but wants to deprive capitalistic interests of their right to freely express their views regarding issues that impact their customers and employees.

We're not a socialistic system, Terrapin Breath. Politicians don't get to dictate silence to private businesses in the USA!.

People claimed that Michael Brown raised his hands and said "don't shoot"....and it was parroted by more than a few talking heads on ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC and CNN.

And then his friend said it never happened.

People claimed that Sandman taunted an indigenous individual and it was parroted by more than a few talking heads on ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC and CNN.

They were both broad claims. Got something specific?

Schmuck.

That does not allow Secretaries of State to arbitrarily change the voting regulations such as happened in numerous states that extended the deadlines for mail in ballots and nixed the post mark and signature verification requirements.

Those were changed as a result of court cases, not secretaries of state.

And it wasn't arbitrary.

Check history, bud. Many times, readers are subjected to lies in the debates on this discussion board because know-it-all idiots like you post whatever they want to be true and nobody challenges it.

I live in Georgia and I know full well what the sorry bastard, Raffensperger did...illegally.

Here's the gist of it:

And this happened in other states as well....aided by Marc Elias, Bitchillary's favorite go-to shyster lawyer.

The Georgia changes were made by a consent decree based on the Secretary of State agreeing to Stacey Abrams demands.

LAWSUIT: Georgia Sec of State Signed Illegal Deal With Democrats Changing How Ballots Are Processed

As Georgia gets ready to execute one of the most critical elections in recent American history, questions about how election officials are processing at least one segment of the ballots has erupted onto the scene and a potent lawsuit has been filed. On March 6, 2020, Georgia Secretary of State...

nationalfile.com

On March 6, 2020, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, took it upon himself to quietly sign off on a legal agreement with officials from the Democrat Party of Georgia, the Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee, and the Democrat Congressional Campaign Committee, that would fundamentally alter the way absentee ballots were processed across the State of Georgia.




The attorney handling the legal representation for the Democrat organizations was none other than Marc Elias from Perkins Coie. If the name rings a bell it’s because he is Hillary Clinton’s consigliere. Elias and Perkins Coie have been handling legal wrangling for Democrat election operations across the country.

....


As is the case in every state in the Union, the right to change election processes and election law lies exclusively with the state legislatures and not the Secretary of State, the State Supervisor of Elections, or the Judiciary.

You mean this consent decree?

https://demdoc2.perkinscoieblogs.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/45/2020/07/GA-Settlement-1.pdf

For starters, had nothing to do with ballot deadlines and postmarks. It didn’t nix signature requirements either. There was nothing “fundamentally” different about how they’re handled.

That's just one of possibly several illegal secret agreements between the asshole Raffensperger and the Democrat Party.

Who knows how many were done? Who knows what's covered in each?

Certainly not you or I.

EXCLUSIVE: A Second Agreement In Georgia Between Democrats and Gwinnett County Is Discovered – This Illegitimate Deal Needs to Be Addressed

freerepublic.com

"We’ve uncovered a second secret agreement between corrupt Georgia election officials and the Democratic Party machine. This agreement is also illegitimate and its purpose too was to steal the election.

We previously reported about the corrupt actions which Georgia’s Chief Elections Official, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger took to help steal the 2020 Georgia election for the Democrats. That involved a secret March 6, 2020 “Consent Agreement” to alter absentee ballot procedures, between Republican Raffensperger and his State Election Board as defendants against the Democratic Party.

But then we found another election law complaint, this one filed by Stacey Abrams’ nonprofit, the “New Georgia Project,” (NGP) filed on May 8, 2020. (See full agreement here or here.) Hillary attorney Marc Elias of Perkins Coie was behind this agreement as well.

Georgia’s General Assembly, was never even informed about this first secret agreement so it likely it knows nothing about the second one."

I don't give a rat's ass what Trump's legal team claimed. I claim that because the changes in procedures were illegal to start with, they certainly changed no laws. The may have made some people THINK that the laws had been changed, but no laws were actually changed.

If you can't fathom that, I cannot help you any further in this matter.

I can understand your reluctance to discuss any specifics.

Guidance issued to clerks in early October that instructed them to presume the accuracy of absentee ballot signatures was ruled invalid last week

These weren’t secret agreements. They’re court proceedings, everything was publicly available.

Not a strong case you’re making here.

Like a thuggish pimp who expects his women to work hard for him, give them all their money and shut up about it, pimp McConnell tells American corporations to "stay out of politics."

McConnell slammed the companies decrying Georgia's voting law — but he's a top recipient of CEOs' cash.
