Episode #431: O Sister, Where Art Thou?; Bloodhounds For Mitch?

from Ken Rudin's Political Junkie

Kentucky political journalist Al Cross takes on the rumors behind the disappearance (from public view) of Sen. Mitch McConnell and, with his long career coming to an end, assesses his legacy. And Meg Kinnard, a political reporter for the Associated Press based in South Carolina, sets up Tuesday’s Republican Senate primary to succeed the late Lindsey Graham, with all eyes on Darline Graham, who was surprisingly named to temporarily fill the seat and who now has decided to run for a full term. PLUS:  Todd Blanche gets closer to confirmation for attorney general.  And Trump throws Jeanine Pirro under the pool.
