It was from today. The date is in the right top corner of the video.
Sad, isn't it...that Congress can't vote on an extension of the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund for the 9/11 responders.

You can't shame these people because they have no shame. You can't tug at their heartstrings because they have no heart. You can't appeal to their morals because they are immoral.
All you can do is replace them with decent people. I'm not even confident that will work with all the voter fraud and hacking of voting machines.

Mitch McConnell forgets fund to help 9/11 victims: 'Gosh, I hadn't looked at that lately' By Emily Singer - June 12, 2019 McConnell played dumb when asked whether he supported reauthorizing a fund to compensate sick and dying 9/11 first responders. Republicans' mistreatment of 9/11 first responders — many of whom are sick and dying of cancer and other respiratory illnesses after heroically working at Ground Zero — is once again in the spotlight after comedian Jon Stewart went to the Hill to shame lawmakers for not reauthorizing funding for health care and other costs for first responders and other 9/11 victims. The last time the fund was reauthorized was in 2015, when Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell chose to block a permanent fund to compensate the victims. Thanks to McConnell, those victims are now in limbo because their compensation fund and the money within it are set to expire in 2020. Yet when asked on Tuesday whether he supports reauthorizing the fund, McConnell played dumb. "Gosh, I hadn't looked at that lately,""Gosh, I hadn't looked at that lately," McConnell told reporters on Capitol Hill. "I'll have to. We've always dealt with that in the past in a compassionate way, and I assume we will again." shareblue.com/mitch-mcconnell-forgets-9-11-victims-fund-gosh/ |

Gosh? Golly? Gee? 9/11 you say? Sounds familiar.
I'll get back to you and those pesky, annoying, sick and dying hero's who ran towards the wreckage while everybody else was running away. Darn it. You mean they and their loved ones are still suffering? Gosh. Who knew? How long are they going to milk this? Golly.
This guy still breathes. Life really isn't fair!

It makes sense that this would not be high on McConnell's agenda. Fire and police departments are, after all, socialist programs and good old Mitch and the GOP drones think that is a dirty word.

You'd think they'd be embarrassed or concerned just a little when the fool in the WH tweets something about the "Prince Of Whales."
He is a disgraceful embarrassment.
So are his supporters.
