If I showed up to work drunk everyday screaming about nonsensical things , they’d put me away. Keg stands is no basis for running an military industrial complex.
Supreme executive power…
Hey, remember when there was a vote for COVID checks on the agenda and mitch the bitch decided to leave it on his desk for a break…until RBG died and suddenly it was Uber importance to shove another red into the SCOTUS
The rules need to be rewritten. The house speaker and Senate majority leader both have WAY too much power. No single individual should be able to dictate what the entire body does, nor have sole decisionmaking authority to decide what bills can and cannot be voted on. And it should take a majority vote to call a recess.
Mitch McConnell is definitely alive.
Mike Johnson is such a chickenshit. I hope seagulls grab him and take him away.
This sounds like good news for those who want that vote to succeed. The voters will be a little more blue, right?
Maybe yes, maybe no. It could be strategy to make sure representatives who might get voted out in the midterm if they did not vote to impeach, will not have to go on the record, and thus hold their seats.
In other words, rather than having them save Hegseth and then lose their seats, they delay the impeachment, potentially sacrificing Hegseth, to save multiple seats.
Fucking coward.
Damn. I really wish whenever there was work that I didn’t want to do I could just say “nah, I’m gonna take some paid time off instead”.
Was the house out of session like the senate until a few days ago?
Did they really just come back, and then go nah, and leave again?
Barely over two weeks ago, yes. They were just off for a month, now off for another two months. Suck shit, Mike Johnson. Take the rest of your career off.
Must be nice to work five months a year for a six-figure salary, best healthcare on Earth, and all the easy-money stock trades you can handle.
… and have you ever watched them in session? Even when they are “working”, it’s hours of killing time, and a good deal of them don’t bother to show up.
The more you look into it, the more disgusting it gets. Revolting pigs, the lot.
They won’t fix it… they’re paid not to. “They” includes Democrats.
Technically they work for you all. So you should hold them accountable.
I suggest the French method
I mean - I don’t want to do it. It sounds like having to do a bunch of bullshit just to maybe kick ball downfield a few times every year.
Don’t worry they will be working. They think it is work to glad hand with their rich owners (so meant donors) that what they will be doing. Fuck the lot of them.
House and Senate Republicans love not working while collecting bribes, a salary and stock dividends.
