NBC News yesterday asked Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell whether his family's history of slave ownership in any way influences his opposition to reparations for slavery.
McConnell's response was that former President Barack Obama also is opposed to reparations, and his [white] mother's ancestors also were slaveholders.

Harris's single jab at Biden was strategic and decisive; it may topple Biden from his perch. But it also proved that Harris is a practitioner of dirty politics.
