America is witness to the horror show of a late stage capitalist death cult where vulnerable people cannot get the assistance they need, in a time of pandemic, in the richest country in the world. Moscow Mitch needs to have this hung round his neck and everyone needs to reminded everyday that this is ALL ON THEM.

McConnell tells Hugh Hewitt he prefers states be allowed to declare bankruptcy over sending them direct federal aid.

They're voting on a package today WITHOUT aid for States.

You can't just blame Mitch if you're not going to insist it be part of the aid.
