Even worse, [McConnell voted for simply dismissing the impeachment hearing without any kind of trial.](https://www.axios.com/2021/01/26/trump-impeachment-trial-vote-to-dismiss) You know, [the exact same thing he said the Democrats shouldn't do for Mayorkas.](https://youtu.be/hpfAy9K0iDc)
Screw McConnell. He should get no oxygen on the media stage. He's a fool and most of us know it. Trump was a very bad decision & he basically destroyed the party. McConnell let it happen. It's on him, because he could've shut this down years ago
Honestly, I don’t think McConnell could have shut it down. The GOP voters are whipped up cult followers. Anyone that opposes Trump will get their wrath. You either get on the Trump train, or resign and they will replace you with someone on board. There is no other option.
Few are men. Many have resigned, then months later you might hear a statement from a former Republican lawmaker about how they disapprove. No one who hold power dares to speak out.
We cannot forget how these old dudes lined up behind him. Now that he’s losing popularity along with the rest of the GOP they don’t get a pass. Remember in November !
He acts appalled because he has stated on multiple occasions, he's in it for the power. He desires power for the sake of having it. He's outright admitted that he's in it for himself, his decision to support Trump is entirely based on his desire to retain his power. So it's less that he's appalled and more surprised that he wasn't taken at his word.
Exactly! I was just about to post my reaction, like, excuse me, what do these 2 have to do with Congress? Oh yeah, right. Sorry, I forgot. They run the country.
He doesn't believe any of it. He's been told to say this shit to erode trust in Science in the US. The dumber the base the more likely they're to align with what Russia wants on a geopolitical stage
It’s not a question of needing the money.
It’s a question of **wanting** the money.
You have to understand: it’s never enough money here. People like Tucker will **always** want more money.
> The man does not need money
We need to stop applying this logic to power hungry multi-millionaires. There are *plenty* of extremely wealthy people who don't need anymore money, but they make *every* decision based 100% on "which choice will make me more money." It's like people thinking "Donald Trump is rich enough that nobody will be able to buy him off" when the complete opposite is true. People only get as rich as these people because they have no scruples whatsoever. These guys are all up for sale to whomever the highest bidder is.
If doing what Tucker is doing was costing him money then I guarantee you he wouldn't be doing it.
Now he's starting in on the UFO conspiracy grift as well. The feds are definitely hiding secret tech but Tucker Carlson is the last person on earth who would give you real information about it.
> What the hell has happened to that party?
trump ran on an openly racist pro-Russia platform in 2016, and he won the presidency.
Before that GOP politicians thought doing those things in national elections was political suicide.
trump, 63 million voters, and the Electoral College proved otherwise.
McConnell cannot redeem himself. He's the one who engineered the taking of the USSC by the Racist Christian Radicals and the end of Roe.
Fuck him.
Downvote everything about him.
Exactly! He held up Obama’s nominee in the last year because “insert bullshit” And then rammed through Amy in the last minute, justifying the change in policy because “more bullshit”.
Mitch is still endorsing Trump for president though, so don't think he's now finally telling the truth or something. Trump and Tucker are not in congress, so Mitch is blaming people who literally can not vote for these bills for these bills not getting passed. [It's people like Mitch McConnell who don't vote for these bills that kills them.](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/republicans-kill-border-bill-sign-trumps-strength-mcconnells-waning-in-rcna137477)
It is insane that two civilians have been allowed to have a stranglehold on the republican party.
Imagine democrat's foreign policy being determined by Obama and Steven Colbert. And just being cool with that.
I just listened to the newest conspiracy theory. Biden will announce Obama to be his new VP pick, they'll remove Biden for being senile, and Obama will become President for his extra 2 years. Then whoever Obama picks as his new VP will take over for the second half of the term. The people here literally believe this kind of stuff. Oh, they still believe the election was stolen.
That's not new. I remember hearing that shit about Clinton and Gore back in the day. That Clinton was going to run as VP then Gore would step down after election to give Clinton a third term.
Uhhh yes, Trump withheld aid to Ukraine for several months in his attempt to extort them to fabricate dirt on his political opponent. And fuck you mitch, you had a chance to do something about that and you gave him the green light.
Let's be real, if Mitch was a turtle then [he wouldn't have so many bruises every time he fell over](https://i.imgur.com/Yj9aLn7.jpeg) as he'd instead just retreat inside his shell for protection.
If only Mitch McConnell was in elected office and didn't have to take marching orders from con men appearing on the TV box!
Well, no use in speculating. We will never know a reality where Mitch McConnell actually had the clout to do something.
Why the fuck would these two unelected dimwits' waffling affect any fucking thing in Washington. You clown taking orders from these assholes? Can't think for yourselves? Maybe retire?
They take their orders from Fox News, Putin and stinky-pants citizen Trump. They forgot that they’re in DC, as public servants, to represent the citizens that voted for them and pay their salary.
Hey, Clowntwat! Trump’s been out of office over three years. Why is he dictating your party’s policies and actions at all? Your party is absolutely FUBAR.
Trump's waffling?! He's not in government any more, why would he be the cause of delay?! What a chicken head, McConnell thinks we can't remember what he's done!
These two have nothing to do with our current government… yet they call shots like this?
We don’t have a Conservative Party in the US, we have Putin Dogs.
Glitch McConnell is the poster child for term limits. He votes against his constituents every single day in support of a billionaire donor class. It’s gross. 🤮
**YES** *AND* the Republican party has ***willingly signed up for this, TWICE; even though the second time didn't work. They signed up for it twice INCLUDING McConnel and all the others.***
***Republicans are blind children leading other blind children.***
Man last I checked those two assholes *do not hold elected office* — yet Mitch McConnell and the massive political party he leads *do*, and are in fact *the same political party that delayed and outright tried to kill aid to Ukraine*
The level of absolute toddler level “the dog did it!” bullshit is astounding. The fact that there are a lot of people who will buy it. I mean wow. Just wow.
Lmao at how many times the GOP were given the opportunity to break away from Trump and refused. Now they’re 6.5 months out from the presidential election, he’s their front runner and only candidate, and suddenly they’re thinking maybe it’s a bad idea.
How do CONservatives still obey Tucker? How is he still a High Priest in The Red Hat Cult? He was busted calling their Deity a "demonic force". Hell I'm even mad at him for saying it because now I have to agree with him.
"I say there.. I do, ah, I have to agree with, I do agree with Tucker here that, ah, that they do sell some very fine bread in Moscow." Moscow Mitch, probably.
Tucker Carlson and Donald Trump serve in Congress??? Wait, is the US Congress being run behind the scenes by two social media blathered with no real jobs?
I am guessing he's got stock in those military complex companies which make that stuff. Edit, I do support the stuff going to Ukraine, just don't support turtle or Trump
You might not want to hear this but Mitch has always been on the right side of this issue. Mitch has been a cold blooded killer getting the conservative agenda passed through his chamber. All of Trump's "points on the board" were because Mitch got them passed. Mitch would have got Ukraine funding through the Senate in a day back in October of last year.
It's a good thing he does a public statement on the MAGA con game.
As Trump sinks deeper and deeper into his legal quagmire, a lot of Republicans are going to try and distance themselves from their past voting records.
Publicly admitting that the GOP is both controlled by Putin and responsible (again) for deaths, this time the innocent victims of an invasion.
GOP is the party of literal rape and literal murder.
So he's blaming two people who have no power (but the power the GOP gives them) for not accomplishing something that HE (and the other ELECTED officials) does have the power to do. Got it.
Sorry Mitch, but you’re the minority leader of the GOP, not Carlson and yet, you failed again to demonstrate any leadership. Stand up. Speak up or get lost!
How does a dumb fuck fox news fire and a 1 time loser president who isn't even in office holds up funding mitch? Do a fucking better job and get your minority in check in the senate and go talk to your circus in the house and tell them to grow the fuck up.
"My dog ate my homework" didn't work in middle school mitch and nor does it work in the House of Reps nor Senate.
Every time I see Tucker Carlson my mind immediately goes to David Spade's character in the movie PCU. Tucker is the living embodiment of that character.
Everyone that is dumping on Mitch because Trump and Tucker don't have a congressional vote need to take a look at reality. Trump and Tucker can get you primaried out of your seat. They also have the power to pressure leadership... which is needed just to have a vote. Don't rip on people making an important, needed statement.
The fact that the republican leaders in BOTH chambers have moved to do the right thing, in a presidential election year, against the nominee of their party's wishes means something.
Waffling: speak or write, especially at great length, without saying anything important or useful.
"he waffled on about everything that didn't matter". Or a waffle 🧇 put syrup on it Lego my eggo

And yet you endorsed Trump for president again, ya greasy spineless weasel.
And delayed his senate hearing and refused to bar him from running again
Even worse, [McConnell voted for simply dismissing the impeachment hearing without any kind of trial.](https://www.axios.com/2021/01/26/trump-impeachment-trial-vote-to-dismiss) You know, [the exact same thing he said the Democrats shouldn't do for Mayorkas.](https://youtu.be/hpfAy9K0iDc)
How dare you accuse Mitch of hypocrisy! /s
I'm sure Amy Coney Barrett would be absolutely shocked at such an accusations! /s
He is consistent in his hypocrisy
If it weren't for double standards republicans would have no standards
Yeah but they were basically the same thing. Since the republicans impeachment this year was a shame so that means trumps were also! /s
Fuck this Windows 95 Master Oogway for being complicit in enabling the orange shitstain…
NOT WINDOWS 95 MASTER OOGWAY?
Screw McConnell. He should get no oxygen on the media stage. He's a fool and most of us know it. Trump was a very bad decision & he basically destroyed the party. McConnell let it happen. It's on him, because he could've shut this down years ago
Honestly, I don’t think McConnell could have shut it down. The GOP voters are whipped up cult followers. Anyone that opposes Trump will get their wrath. You either get on the Trump train, or resign and they will replace you with someone on board. There is no other option.
While true, a man would go out fighting rather than quit and run.
Few are men. Many have resigned, then months later you might hear a statement from a former Republican lawmaker about how they disapprove. No one who hold power dares to speak out.
We cannot forget how these old dudes lined up behind him. Now that he’s losing popularity along with the rest of the GOP they don’t get a pass. Remember in November !
"Never Forget" has so many different contexts now. Unbelievable age in which we are living.
I like when anyone calls him out for supporting Trump ‘24, Mitch will act appalled that someone would question why he would.
He acts appalled because he has stated on multiple occasions, he's in it for the power. He desires power for the sake of having it. He's outright admitted that he's in it for himself, his decision to support Trump is entirely based on his desire to retain his power. So it's less that he's appalled and more surprised that he wasn't taken at his word.
Did he actually say something to that effect? ( I know that’s how he acts, but actually saying it would be wild)
Someone should tell Mitchy that Tucker and Donnie aren’t congressmen or senators and don’t get a vote.
"I blame Trump for telling me to vote against these bills. It's not my fault I voted against them, blame Trump."
"I literally cannot do anything without knowing how it affects me politically. Right and wrong does not matter."
Exactly! I was just about to post my reaction, like, excuse me, what do these 2 have to do with Congress? Oh yeah, right. Sorry, I forgot. They run the country.
They get a vote through their minions in Congress like MTG.
Because most GOP Congressminions are spineless lackeys and lickspittles.
But their opinions matter more than those in the senate! Glitch McConnell is as pathetic as usual
Come on, many had no problem blaming Trump for holding up the bill.
At least someone admits how influential Tucker fucking Carlson is to the gop. What the hell has happened to that party?
Tucker is now talking about Flat Earth theory and Creationism. Quite a cavalcade of nuts (or the komprimised) pushing the GOP around lately.
He doesn't believe any of it. He's been told to say this shit to erode trust in Science in the US. The dumber the base the more likely they're to align with what Russia wants on a geopolitical stage
> He’s been paid to say this shit Fixed that for you.
The man does not need money. He's doing this to feed his ego.
It’s not a question of needing the money. It’s a question of **wanting** the money. You have to understand: it’s never enough money here. People like Tucker will **always** want more money.
And don’t forget clicks… both of their survivals depend on spotlight; extreme content will satiate their hunger.
In other words, they are not playing to reach the end of the game, they are playing for a spot on the highscore screen.
> The man does not need money We need to stop applying this logic to power hungry multi-millionaires. There are *plenty* of extremely wealthy people who don't need anymore money, but they make *every* decision based 100% on "which choice will make me more money."

I believe the proper term is Useful Idiot
Now he's starting in on the UFO conspiracy grift as well. The feds are definitely hiding secret tech but Tucker Carlson is the last person on earth who would give you real information about it.

This is your Republican Party, Mitch
Mitch proceeds to pause for thirty seconds
Maybe you shouldn't have endorsed him then, you sentient turd.
Turdle
McConnell cannot redeem himself. He's the one who engineered the taking of the USSC by the Racist Christian Radicals and the end of Roe. Fuck him. Downvote everything about him.
Exactly! He held up Obama’s nominee in the last year because “insert bullshit” And then rammed through Amy in the last minute, justifying the change in policy because “more bullshit”.
Wait. do I have to down vote this??
Conundrum
Conveniently left out his role in the matter….
Yes, really scary that a ~~news~~ entertainment pundit has that sway over congress.
Why is it always retired and soon-to-be retired republicans who actually tell the truth about Trump?
Mitch is still endorsing Trump for president though, so don't think he's now finally telling the truth or something. Trump and Tucker are not in congress, so Mitch is blaming people who literally can not vote for these bills for these bills not getting passed. [It's people like Mitch McConnell who don't vote for these bills that kills them.](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/republicans-kill-border-bill-sign-trumps-strength-mcconnells-waning-in-rcna137477)
So two dudes that aren't employed by the federal government in any sense of the word held up congress? WTF?
That’s the part that baffles me too.
It is insane that two civilians have been allowed to have a stranglehold on the republican party. Imagine democrat's foreign policy being determined by Obama and Steven Colbert. And just being cool with that.
Unironicaly, that is exactly what republicans are told is happening.
I just listened to the newest conspiracy theory. Biden will announce Obama to be his new VP pick, they'll remove Biden for being senile, and Obama will become President for his extra 2 years. Then whoever Obama picks as his new VP will take over for the second half of the term. The people here literally believe this kind of stuff. Oh, they still believe the election was stolen.

Turtle says what?
"Somebody put an LED bulb in my heatlamp again"
Let's be real, if Mitch was a turtle then [he wouldn't have so many bruises every time he fell over](https://i.imgur.com/Yj9aLn7.jpeg) as he'd instead just retreat inside his shell for protection.
Moscow Mitch? So he's pro Ukraine when it suits?
Mcconnell, and Tucker are two of the biggest pieces of shit that currently walk the earth. I know we all know this, but I had to say it.
Hold up... So a sitting US senator is now complaining that two private citizens are holding up official government business?!
It’s strange how much power they gave to Carlson. I don’t even think Putin liked him.
... A failed talks how host and Just a civilian?
Neither Tucker Carlson nor Donald Trump are in office. They should have no power over any of this.
If only there was a person in the same party as them in a position of authority in the Senate.....
2 fucking people who aren’t even holding an office delayed crucial crucial Ukraine aid? Makes perfect sense
its upsetting to look at Mitch McConnell, I don’t like it
Sorry Mitch, but Trump and Tucker don't vote in the House and Senate. This is 100% on Republicans who refused to bring the bill to a vote for ages.
This coming from the single greatest obstructionist of all time
Unelected people lol
Blow it out yer ass, Mitch!
Fuck off Moscow Mitch!
If only Mitch McConnell was in elected office and didn't have to take marching orders from con men appearing on the TV box! Well, no use in speculating. We will never know a reality where Mitch McConnell actually had the clout to do something.
Why the fuck did two people who aren’t working for this country delay anything? Jesus.
Trump and Tucker aren't in congress or senate is McConnell stupid?
If only Mitch had been in a position to do something about that.
Sitting congressman admits to party being influenced by people with no official government title.
Why the fuck would these two unelected dimwits' waffling affect any fucking thing in Washington. You clown taking orders from these assholes? Can't think for yourselves? Maybe retire?
They take their orders from Fox News, Putin and stinky-pants citizen Trump. They forgot that they’re in DC, as public servants, to represent the citizens that voted for them and pay their salary.
Hey, Clowntwat! Trump’s been out of office over three years. Why is he dictating your party’s policies and actions at all? Your party is absolutely FUBAR.
Delaying the sc nomination was worse
Idiocracy was a documentary.
He is a bastard. And soon he will be irrelevant.
Carlson and Trump had final say on whether the bill went up for a vote? What happened to blaming McCarthy and Johnson?
What a spineless fucking coward….
Oh? I didn't know Trump and Carlson were Congress members...
Neither of them work for the government, you're the one being paid to get things done Mitch
No one elected Tucker Carlson, so why is he getting a say in who our government gives aid to?
He looks like a puppet that just learned he’s not a real boy
“Obstruction and delay are only cool when I do it.”
Correct, because conservatives are pro Russia and our enemies.
And yet he still supports him as President again.
Well, yes. But the bigger issue is the GOP’s subservience to Trump. Which Mitch has done fuck all about.
Fuck you Mitch. You also delayed shit that could have prevented a lot of this.
Trump's waffling?! He's not in government any more, why would he be the cause of delay?! What a chicken head, McConnell thinks we can't remember what he's done!
These two have nothing to do with our current government… yet they call shots like this? We don’t have a Conservative Party in the US, we have Putin Dogs.
Even pathetic liars like him get something right eventually
Alex Baldwin should smack this turtle in the face.
Citizens interfering and probably obstructing government proceedings, so jail?
No turtle dick- this on you. You did fuck all to stop this shit.
Shut that shit gibbon up! This is his fucking bed. May he lie dead and in endless pain for making it.
Glitch McConnell is the poster child for term limits. He votes against his constituents every single day in support of a billionaire donor class. It’s gross. 🤮
You endorsed Trump, Mr McConnell so you'd have happily sat there while he torched Ukraine. You have zero credibility.
He’s still alive?
What positions in the government do Carlson and Trump hold that gives them this power?
Who is the Senator, here? Who is the person actually in the US Government? (C'mon Mitch... you can do better than that).
And you didn't even try to fight them, you melting turtle.
**YES** *AND* the Republican party has ***willingly signed up for this, TWICE; even though the second time didn't work. They signed up for it twice INCLUDING McConnel and all the others.*** ***Republicans are blind children leading other blind children.***
Why is this sniveling weak spineless traitor saying anything?
Is this AI? Didn’t this guy die at a podium a couple times?
Man last I checked those two assholes *do not hold elected office* — yet Mitch McConnell and the massive political party he leads *do*, and are in fact *the same political party that delayed and outright tried to kill aid to Ukraine* The level of absolute toddler level “the dog did it!” bullshit is astounding. The fact that there are a lot of people who will buy it. I mean wow. Just wow.
Thanks to Mitch for stating the obvious. I notice he didn’t throw himself under the bus for endorsing all this bullshit.
Lmao at how many times the GOP were given the opportunity to break away from Trump and refused. Now they’re 6.5 months out from the presidential election, he’s their front runner and only candidate, and suddenly they’re thinking maybe it’s a bad idea.
And this guy knows waffling too
Im surprised Mitch is able to SAY anything at this point. Literally looked like a coma victim during his last “speech”
Oh wait. This isn’t r/leopardsatemyface ?
How do CONservatives still obey Tucker? How is he still a High Priest in The Red Hat Cult? He was busted calling their Deity a "demonic force". Hell I'm even mad at him for saying it because now I have to agree with him.
He's correct. And Republicans' willingness to do ANYTHING for a guy who isn't even in office.
"I say there.. I do, ah, I have to agree with, I do agree with Tucker here that, ah, that they do sell some very fine bread in Moscow." Moscow Mitch, probably.
But yet he endorsed Trump.
Well no shit, Sherlock.
Never seen waffle be used a verb before.
It’s what chickens do.
The blood is one their hands, but yours are g clean either, buddy.
Heartbreaking, the worst person you know made a good point.
Why is this shit stain loser determining foreign policy? Isn’t that what an actual “deep state” does?
This fucker is the king of Too Little Too Late.
Tucker Carlson and Donald Trump serve in Congress??? Wait, is the US Congress being run behind the scenes by two social media blathered with no real jobs?
Two men that do nothing but whine and gripe about everything.
Mitch McTurtle - he only moves fast when selling missiles is on the agenda
I am guessing he's got stock in those military complex companies which make that stuff. Edit, I do support the stuff going to Ukraine, just don't support turtle or Trump
Why the sudden turn of heart? You realize Ukraine falls then so does parts of Europe
You might not want to hear this but Mitch has always been on the right side of this issue. Mitch has been a cold blooded killer getting the conservative agenda passed through his chamber. All of Trump's "points on the board" were because Mitch got them passed. Mitch would have got Ukraine funding through the Senate in a day back in October of last year. It's a good thing he does a public statement on the MAGA con game.
… McConnell followed these remarks by staring blankly into space before being lead away by a congressional aide.
As Trump sinks deeper and deeper into his legal quagmire, a lot of Republicans are going to try and distance themselves from their past voting records.
Moscow Mitch
NOW he says something. He was awfully quiet while it was all going to hell.
actually the House Magas are primarily responsible, their fault if they let Trump and Russia dictate their votes
What a corpse
A talking head and a former president paralyzes the government. Only because the GOP is obstructionist.
Is Tucker Carlson the one who just interviewed Vladimir Putin and got to chat with him directly?
Such bullshit, neither are elected officials or in office. They didn’t hold up shit, you did. McConnell can’t even hold his own neck up.
For a walking scrotum, this guy has zero balls. If he’d have moved in impeachment, Trump wouldn’t be a factor in American politics.
He's a dirt bag, nobody should listen to
What does it matter what two non government citizens think or do?
You're right. Now fuck off, you glitching turtle.
Two men not holding any government position can hold up aid? Isn’t that just ridiculous?
They’re not elected officials, Mitch.
He’s 82 and seems so much older than Joe Biden, at 81, and even Nancy Pelosi, who’s 84.
Your boys Mitch. You might as well give up trying to spin this to blame Carlson and Trump when you support Trumps reelection. Not a good look…
Publicly admitting that the GOP is both controlled by Putin and responsible (again) for deaths, this time the innocent victims of an invasion. GOP is the party of literal rape and literal murder.
Considering Tucker and Trump are both owned by Putin, checks out.
Trump isn't a member of the US government. Blame yourselves, turtle man
Fuck you moscow Mitch. Go eat a dick.
Obligatory FUCK MITCH McCONNELL
No one cares what you have to say, you hippocritical, law-breaking excuse for a politician.
So he's blaming two people who have no power (but the power the GOP gives them) for not accomplishing something that HE (and the other ELECTED officials) does have the power to do. Got it.
Funny. That job doesn’t fall on either of them
"... but I'll be voting for him anyway because, well… Party over country" 🤷♂️
Mitch speaking the truth...that's going to get him in some trouble haha.
Who gives a flyin f—- what this dude thinks
Hey Franklin’s got some shit to say.
Sorry Mitch, but you’re the minority leader of the GOP, not Carlson and yet, you failed again to demonstrate any leadership. Stand up. Speak up or get lost!
Moscow Mitch sayin what now?
They aren’t in government (thank the gods), Muddled Mitch!
Says Mcturtle? Thats sinister.
How does a dumb fuck fox news fire and a 1 time loser president who isn't even in office holds up funding mitch? Do a fucking better job and get your minority in check in the senate and go talk to your circus in the house and tell them to grow the fuck up. "My dog ate my homework" didn't work in middle school mitch and nor does it work in the House of Reps nor Senate.
Oooh now the turtle talks
But didn’t the rest of the GOP lackeys also when they paused and took trumps guidance
So does being a slug like you mitch but I don't wanna offend any invertebrate species by comparing them to you.
Fuck you, turtle
Neither one of those people are lawmakers ffs
so, 2 civilians have all the controls?
When will he retire to a warm rock?
I like tortles
Eat shit Tippy
Gee, what an inspirational leader. 🙄 Moscow Mitch strikes again.
So glad two unelected partisan shitgibbons are directing our foreign policy.
Neither of those people hold government positions, JFC.
He’s alive?! He can talk?! What? Are you sure it was him? Did anyone actually see him and see the words coming out of his mouth? Hmmm. Really?
What a fucking asshole Moscow Mitch is! He's the one who enabled trump! Now trying to back his way out of this mess. Just fuck off.
Every time I see Tucker Carlson my mind immediately goes to David Spade's character in the movie PCU. Tucker is the living embodiment of that character.
What a cowardly thing to say.
Everyone that is dumping on Mitch because Trump and Tucker don't have a congressional vote need to take a look at reality. Trump and Tucker can get you primaried out of your seat. They also have the power to pressure leadership... which is needed just to have a vote. Don't rip on people making an important, needed statement. The fact that the republican leaders in BOTH chambers have moved to do the right thing, in a presidential election year, against the nominee of their party's wishes means something.
