6/30/21: At a Chamber of Commerce luncheon, Sen. Mitch McConnell is asked, if he had only one choice, with whom would he want to be stranded with on a desert island: Joe Biden, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, or Barack Obama?
“Biden and I did four bipartisan deals during the Obama administration,” McConnell replies. I consider him a personal friend.”
So it would be Joe.
“I was the only Republican who went to his son Beau’s funeral. So that would be an easy choice. I think Biden is a first-rate person,” McConnell adds.
And a crack in the universe appears.

Citizens of darker skin ask, “What took so long?”
KKK types deeply depressed.

Second, the check is cashed.
Third, the company calls hundreds of workers in for a meeting and announces they are being terminated.
Fourth: FreightCar America is moving to Mexico.
