Must have been so quick that they weren't able to hide the body and pretend like he's still alive for a month.

That’s a very thorough way of checking in on Mitch, Lindsay!

The fucking smile on this piece of shit's face while Trump is talking about invading Cuba after he kidnapped Maduro is something I'll never forget. He looked like he really wanted his slaves back from the laborers that produce cocoa and sugar. The fact that he's rotting in hell just made my day! I hope Mr Turtle is next!

Interesting. Is boiling the planet helping to kill parasites?

He was a terrible freaking person.

Mitch wanted some company in Hell.

Bro probably had a heart attack caused by blow and underage male prostitutes.

The senator was also a stalwart supporter of arming Kyiv and applying sanctions against Moscow.

Might have been targeted.
