🍻 Today's Morning Sixpack was gonna be a few bottles short. I'm tired AF (crappy sleep), mostly worried about a friend...with COVID, who's fighting for his life.


He has two friends, who were fully vaccinated, who are fighting for their lives, too.


That worries me a lot.


But experts are claiming that we really are turning a corner wrt COVID. To say I'm skeptical would be an understatement.


In fact, I think it's here to stay. It may replace the flu. Oh, I think the vaccines are wonderful miracles of science, but we will be taking them every year, maybe in spray form. ("Up your nose with a rubber hose" - who said it?)


Anyhoo, I got to digging and found a bunch of good stories for you.


The 4 pack may come tomorrow 😁


Read on.

Leave it to Moscow Mitch to restore my hatred of Republicans.


Remember when I said the enemy of your enemy is not your friend (above - you have to consume the whole Sixpack to get this)?


Still true. Mitch McConnell, I will say, never fails to underwhelm and infuriate me simultaneously.



McConnell says he's ‘100 percent' focused on ‘stopping' Biden's administration.


Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Wednesday he is “100 percent” focused “on stopping” President Joe Biden's administration.

Speaking to reporters in his home state of Kentucky, McConnell was asked about the House GOP leadership feud that reached a boiling point this week after Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, the third-ranking Republican, again rebutted former President Donald Trump's stolen election lie. McConnell was also asked whether he was concerned about the direction of the party.


One-hundred percent of our focus is on stopping this new administration,” McConnell said, adding, “We're confronted with severe challenges from a new administration, and a narrow majority of Democrats in the House and a 50-50 Senate to turn America into a socialist country, and that's 100 percent of my focus.”
