COVINGTON, Kentucky (AP) — President Joe Biden is in Kentucky visiting a dilapidated bridge that’s getting a federal facelift and talking up the virtues of bipartisanship with Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell. But at the same time, the Democratic president is blasting House Republicans for an “embarrassing” scene of disarray in Washington that’s kept the chamber from organizing itself. Biden’s Wednesday visit to the Brent Spence Bridge connecting Ohio and Kentucky is designed to promote his administration’s bipartisan infrastructure law. The bridge has been a symbol of the nation’s aging infrastructure, with presidents of both parties vowing to fix it. Biden administration officials are headlining similar events this week in Illinois, Connecticut and California.
