Mitch McConnell

A man is going viral on TikTok for skewering Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell over the stimulus bill.

Senator John Barrasso said that Trump "was blockaded" by Democrats "every step along the way to get his people and this Cabinet nominated."

A stalemate over a further relief package continues, with differing stances blocking the passage of a deal through Congress.

"You've gotta nominate Amy Coney Barrett," Mitch McConnell allegedly told President Donald Trump after the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

"He's looking forward to doing that when the time is right," Kate Bedingfield, senior adviser to Joe Biden's transition team, said.

Trump's claims of a "rigged" election has prompted distrust in the election process among his base.

Mitt Romney, Susan Collins and Ben Sasse have been outspoken about Trump's challenges to the election results, while most other Republican senators have not.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Friday accused Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) of allowing the Senate to break for Thanksgiving while "there are thousands of people in Texas lined up for food lines" who could be helped by a new COVID-19 stimulus package.

On Wednesday, Kathryn Mizelle was confirmed to the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida despite never having tried a case since her admission to the bar.

Thus far, most congressional Republicans have not publicly acknowledged President-elect Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 election.

A withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan "would be broadcast around the world as a symbol of U.S. defeat and humiliation and of victory for Islamic extremism," Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said on Monday.

"He will never put himself in a position where he can lose like this again, first of all," Mary Trump told CNN.

As of November 12, the Senate had confirmed 221 judges nominated by Trump throughout his presidency.

"Obviously you're dealing with the same dynamics that you had prior to the election," congressman Tom Reed said Tuesday.

The South Carolina Senator has backed President Trump over his claims of fraud in the election, offering his support to every avenue being pursued.

A check before January 20 is possible, but Democrats and Republicans remain divided on a forthcoming package.

"I think that if anyone can find common ground it's Joe Biden," Governor Gretchen Whitmer said in an interview published Monday.

Joe Biden campaigned on an ambitious political agenda that included progressive proposals on immigration, health care, climate change and criminal justice reform. But the prospect of a split Congress, led by Republican Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, puts those goals at risk.

Why it's time for Mitch McConnell to wave the white flag and get a COVID-19 bailout package done—or else; why China stopped the world's largest stock offering stalled ; and finally, why I'm so sad about the decline of ice cream legend Friendly's, as it files for bankruptcy a second time.

Numerous lawmakers have congratulated president-elect Joe Biden, though the president is still yet to concede to the Democrat.

The Senate majority leader has outlined how he feels disputes over the counting of ballots should be resolved, as the president continues to cry foul.
