Jim Bauer @porwest (113648) • United States 15 Jul

Jim Bauer @porwest (113648) • United States 12 Jul

The whole Mitch McConnell story is one that is absolutely bizarre to me. I mean, we haven't heard from him in almost a month. His family and staff say he's fine, alert and recovering. He's had apparent 20-minute conversations with...
