Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife, Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao, should be immediately removed from office following a damning report showing that the power couple was using their positions of power to steer projects towards their wealthy campaign donors in order to ensure a successful reelection campaign. McConnell is corrupt as hell, and apparently that’s something that he has in common with his wife. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this. Link –

Move over. Jared and Ivanka, there is a new corrupt as hell power couple taking over Washington DC and that power couple unfortunately happens to be Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell and his wife Transportation Under Secretary Elaine Chao. According to a new report by politico, Elaine Chao, through her position at the Department of Transportation, has actually been steering contracts to some of the wealthy donors in Kentucky that have given money to her husband. Here's the way it worked. According to politico, you had a man by the name of Todd Inman, who is now actually Elaine Chao's chief of staff, but she had appointed Mr Inman to be the intermediary between Kentucky, Mitch McConnell and Elaine Chao.
Mr Inman would find out which projects Mitch McConnell\ thought were priorities in Kentucky. You know, which areas did he need to shore up votes? Essentially, which companies did he need to get money from for his 2020 reelection campaign? That's, that was in job. He would then take that information back to Elaine Chao who would then steer grants and contracts to these cities or companies in order to benefit her husband's political career. And we're not talking about one contract here. It may be another over there. Oh yeah, it's little piddly. We're talking about $78 million worth of grants and contracts that Elaine Chao at the department of transportation steered towards people and places that Mitch McConnell wanted that money to go to.
This is corruption at its peak. This is illegal. Oh, and by the way, it's worth mentioning too that no other state had an intermediary like Mr Inman did for Kentucky and Elaine Chao and Mitch McConnell. None of the other 49 states in this country had somebody specifically working on that. Somebody going out there and saying, hey, your infrastructure sucks. Your roads, your bridges, they're awful. What do you need from the Department of Transportation? What do you got for me? Nobody else got that except Elaine Chao's husbands state of Kentucky. Now here's the bottom line of this story and the corruption is much deeper than that. I don't want to get into the minutia of the details and some of the companies involved. You can follow the link in the description of this video if you want to get all of those other details. I boiled it down to the nuts and bolts for you here, but let me boil it down even further.
Elaine Chao needs to be impeached and removed from her position immediately.
