Mitch McConnell's Hypocrisy Knows No Bounds

Republican minority leader Mitch McConnell reached the pinnacle of hypocrisy when claimed the Senate had reached an "unfortunate precedent" over the House impeachment of Mayorkas, ignoring his own past behavior.

After the Senate dismissed two articles of impeachment against Mayorkas, the turtle was upset.
