On Thursday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell signed on as a co-sponsor to Sen. Josh Hawley’s (R-MO) resolution to change the Senate’s rules to allow a vote to dismiss the Democrats’ two articles of impeachment if House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) fails to submit them within 25 days. In response, actress and progressive activist Alyssa Milano — who has been one of Hollywood’s more vocal critics of President Trump and Republicans — issued an exasperated, F-bomb-filled social media post lamenting the Democrats’ loss of “focus” on impeachment amid their attempt to limit Trump’s authority in handling Iran.
“F***. F***. F***. This is what happens when we pivot our focus to Iran: McConnell is backing a resolution to change the Senate’s rules to allow for lawmakers to dismiss articles of impeachment against President Trump before the House sends them over,” Milano tweeted Thursday, linking to an article on McConnell backing Hawley’s measure to allow a dismissal of the articles if Pelosi withholds them for too long.
