When Mitch McConnell passes, I will not mourn.

 

I will not mourn the passing of a man who spent his life in service of greed and power.

Mitch McConnell is 84 years old. He has lived a long life—one marked not by courage or compassion, but by a relentless commitment to obstruction, corporate interests, and the erosion of democratic norms.

For decades, he wielded power not to improve lives, but to entrench them—blocking progress, stacking courts, and prioritizing political gain over the well-being of millions. The consequences of those choices will outlive him, and will be felt in weakened institutions and rights stripped away.

 

History will remember him not for what he built, but for what he prevented—and for the damage done in the process.
