The stack, a symbolic replication of legislation McConnell refuses to bring to a vote, was reportedly the brain child of Senator Debbie Stabenow. According to her office, it includes more than 300 bills about voter registration, background checks for firearm sales, domestic violence, climate change, minimum wage increases and other issues. The do-nothing strategy spearheaded by McConnell’s office seems intentional, Democrats claim. Back in September, McConnell promised to be a “grim reaper” to any and all progressive legislation....

“We have to uphold a free press and freedom of speech—because, in the end, lies and misinformation are no match for the truth,” Obama said, evoking a round of applause.

Walker remains questionable for the Week 11 finale, but he did practice for the first time since being injured against the Baltimore Ravens.
