No big deal. Just a month and 1/2 vacation while we are dealing with massive inflation, soaring gas pricing, and basically teetering on ww3.

Duh, to pass all of President Trump’s agenda before the midterms and make Republican incumbents appear to be working hard for us.
This has nothing...I repeat nothing...to do with being afraid of Thomas Massie.

Was on a capital tour today and Speaker Johnson walked right by is. He didn’t look overly happy either.

Yup. This is going to be a field day for Democrats.
I don't think Massie intended to do that, but who knows.
I watched his speech on the House floor today. It's pretty clear he's setting up for an independent, America First presidential bid in 2028.

The mid terms are going to get ugly and republicans only have themselves to blame for this shite.

What is the House supposed to do when the Senate is killing every bill because they don't want Trump getting credit for any new law.

So in 2016, everything was “oh he can’t do anything because he doesn’t have congress or the courts”
Now he has the courts, both houses of congress, and the presidency, and y’all still can’t realize he’s a fricking fraud and a scammer
Incredible tbh

Are you talking about the Supreme Court?? You do realize they have not voted for several major initiatives of his, so he really doesn't "have the courts." He doesn't have enough margin of strong Republicans in either the house or the senate to pass much of his initiatives either. He's worked his 80-year-old butt off trying to bring our country back and people like you don't appreciate it and deserve a Kamala or AOC.

435 house seats (all seats) are in election cycle.
They want to go home and beg voters to let them stay is DC and have power and make money.

We know they just had a holiday and returned to watch turtle wheeled in. But is this recess the kind that Trump can appoint in recess?

Nope. The senate will still have pro forma sessions to prevent that.

Well yea. Constitutional judges aren’t going to like when you do unconstitutional shite. Republicans or democrats.
