Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader McConnell announced the Senate would be voting on the Green New Deal introduced by freshman Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez.

Mary covered the “bill” in detail here.

It's official: @senatemajldr says the Senate will vote on the Green New Deal championed by @AOC . The GOP is almost giddy about the idea of putting Dems on record on these progressive ideas — Rachael Bade (@rachaelmbade) February 12, 2019

And giddy McConnell is. Check out that little smirk at the end of the clip.

The bill reads like a kindergartener’s wish list for saving the world. From eliminating cow farts to remodeling every.single.building.in.the.US to helping all the poor people with magical money that doesn’t exist, getting Democrats on record supporting this piece of garbage is the absolute right thing to do.

When it was introduced last week, Democrat presidential contenders couldn’t jump on the bandwagon fast enough. A move we predicted will explode in the most glorious of fashions come election crunch time.
