McConnell reelected Senate majority leader
By Jordain Carney - 11/16/16 10:19 AM EST

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is keeping his spot as the Senate's top Republican.
 
The Kentucky Republican on Wednesday was reelected the GOP leader "by acclimation by his colleagues with a standing ovation,” McConnell spokesman Don Stewart said.
 
Stewart said the decision was unanimous.
 
McConnell was nominated and seconded by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Sen.-elect Todd Young (R-Ind.).

McConnell was widely expected to keep the top GOP spot, with no senator publicly mulling a challenge.
 
Republicans are huddling in a closed-door meeting on Wednesday morning to elect their leadership team for 2017.

McConnell guarantees another do nothing Senate.  He doesn't allow even Republican bills to come to the floor.  He hates Cruz because Cruz speaks the truth and tries to get conservative values back in the senate.  McConnell will have none of that.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.
