Shortly after Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced he will step down from that post at the end of this Congress, US Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) announced she will seek election to the #3 leadership position in the Republican Caucus.
Great article, Barry. The hypocrisy is so rampant it has become the norm. Just like your fellow writer Dave Busick wrote in his recent "Opposite Day" column. Although it's been said so many times before as to now fall on deaf ears, the 2024 election is truly the most important of my lifetime, as democracy, honesty, integrity, and sanity are all on the ballot.
Amen! Senator Ernst’s vote on the border bill was completely hypocritical. Blame Trump for killing it, then vote to kill it. And when we wrote to thank her for supporting Ukraine funding, her response was to blame Biden for weakness in foreign policy.

Joni is another colossal disappointment in the republican "leadership" ranks.

poor Joni is a pathetic backbencher just trying to escape Red Oak and help herself out of poverty. Her military service was a joke.
