They shut down early to avoid doing anything about the Epstein files or the war.
They did condemn Socialism. There’s that…
Congress: My job here is done.
Everyone else: But you didn’t do anything…
The rest of the world to American citizens: And you did even less.
They are f-ing paid to do their job in Washington. Re-election circus is a hobby they can chase in their spare time.

I mean, there is going to be. The federal government really doesn’t have an enforcement mechanism they can use. However - it is going to be a shitshow with tons of laws broken, mountains of lawsuits and most likely violence.
Even after the US goes full dictatorship, there will still be “elections” … where the dictator and his cronies just happen to win every time with 95% of the vote, because they’re so popular.
Sure, ya. But not this election.

A week in the coal mines for each week out of session
I mean…. Do we really want them working in order to do even more damage?
At this point, Congress as a whole seems to be hurting us a lot more than helping us.
Nice perk of the job to give yourself an extra 2weeks vacation because you think you did well.
Wish i could do that.
They should take off until mid January. Without pay
These MFs! This is outrageous…
