A crowd of crazed leftists descended on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s Louisville, Kentucky home Monday night to harass the elderly statesman they blame for recent mass shootings.
“So a woman on FB is live streaming acting like Antifa outside of @senatemajldr house!” Karli Bonne posted with a video on Twitter. “She is here saying she hopes someone ‘just stabs the mother f*ucker in the heart! This is where we are now?”

The video was originally streamed to Facebook by Louisville resident Chanelle Helm, who stood outside the McConnell residence along the sidewalk with about two dozen others, all toting signs, ringing bells and screaming wild accusations into the night.
“This bitch think he about to get some rest, not if the children you’re kidnapping can’t get any rest, not if families who are getting murdered can’t get any rest. Fu*k Mitch! Ditch Mitch!” Helm screamed.
The group featured a few black men and women, including Helm, but the majority were white millennials, mostly guys, who repeatedly taunted the 77-year-old to come out. The group banged snow shovels on the sidewalk and clanged wooden broom handles together.

Signs read: “Fu*k you murder turtle,” “Death to white supremacy,” “Gun control now,” “#MassacreMitch.”
“If we can’t get no rest because of you, you won’t get no rest because of us,” they chanted. “No KKK, no fascist USA!”
Many of the protestors covered their faces in the video or ducked behind their signs, which appeared to have been repurposed from local advertising signs. Eventually, several folks come outside and stand in front of the senator’s home, as the banging and screaming drew complaints from neighbors and a police presence.
“This bitch is home – we keep seeing the lights go on and off,” a protestor said. “This h** really thought he was going to get ready to be at home after he hurt his little punk ass shoulder. Bitch, don’t nobody give a f*ck! F*ck your thoughts and prayers, Mitch. F*ck you, f*ck your wife, f*ck everything you stand for.”
At one point, a male heckler called for a voodoo doll.
“Just stab the mother f*cker in the heart, please,” another said.
The protest followed several hours after Team Mitch posted two images to Twitter, one with the senator’s defective Nike shoes and another with McConnell holding the shoe in a shoulder sling.

“First Zion. Now me,” the post read, referencing Duke freshman phenom Zion Williamson’s infamous Nike shoe blowout in February.
The madness at the McConnell residence continued for over two hours, and involved at least two young children toting picket signs into the night.

One read, “Mich McConnell more like B**** McConnell.” The other: “Save the turtles … except for Moscow Mitch!”
A deranged man screamed: “F*ck Elaine! F*ck Elaine! F*ck Elaine!” referring to McConnell’s wife.

About half-way through the hours-long ordeal someone ordered the hecklers pizza from Papa John’s as a way to troll the social justice warriors, who boycott the pizza chain because of racial comments made by its namesake.
“Honey, we boycott Papa John’s,” Helm said. “People pull this prank all the time. They did it when we did occupy ICE, too, ordering from restaurants that we boycott or folks that we don’t f*ck wit.”
The stunt continued for another hour or more as protestors gave interviews to the media and continued with more of the same.
Some told WLKY the group intentionally targeted the home Monday because the senator’s social media activity indicated he was home, recovering from a fall over the weekend.
“One organizer said the protest is partially in response to this weekend’s mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton but is largely about a range of policy issues. She said she feels this is the only way they can be heard,” according to the news site.
“The group said they knew McConnell was home because of his recent injury. McConnell fell over the weekend and fractured his shoulder and is recovering at his Louisville home.”

The protest came on the heels of a statement from McConnell on Sunday calling for “bipartisan discussions of potential solutions to help protect our communities without infringing on Americans’ constitutional rights.”
“Partisan theatrics and campaign-trail rhetoric will only take us farther way from the progress all Americans deserve,” he said.
