So the arrogant SOBs can stop the clock and now it’s the Constitution. That should make for an interesting session.

They can resort to procedural gimmicks without violating constitution. I can’t say what it will be. I am not a legal expert. I suggesting this possibility because many vote fraud lawsuits so far were rejected on technical ground.

Maybe he realized that his annoying habit could cost him his site’s viewership.

Legislature can pass no laws without POTUS signature unless afterwards they override his veto with with 2/3 majority in both houses.

NO way to do this in 7 days.......

If this happens the pitch forks, torches and tree decorating will start soon after.

“...riot and burn shit down...”

Well that’s.probably the only way to get those knuckleheads to sit up and take notice. It worked for BLM and Antifa.

Never in my life have I ever had the slightest impulse to riot, but honestly, this complete, “icing and cherry on the cake “ disregard for the obvious will of “We The People” makes me feel an immense desire to show up on the Capitol steps with a torch and a pitchfork!!!! How {^£]#%?!% DARE they conspire to sanction the obvious, in our faces fraud, without ever letting us be heard, letting the evidence be heard? I believe the Boston Tea Party was predicated on far less egregious instances of disregard of the “subjects”.

If the “elites” who purport to represent us in DC have that little interest in what We The People want and are paying them heartily for, why do we need them anymore? If “laws” are only a convenient excuse for keeping the rabble quiet, but the “special” people can do whatever the F they want and they just give each other a wink and carry on stabbing us in the back, then we aren’t citizens anymore, we are indentured servants, and we don’t have any sort of a republic, but an “aristocracy” of sorts, where the “aristocrats” aren’t born to it but attain their titles through familial relationships and attendance at the “right” schools. That is a far cry from what the Founders created, in fact it is the complete opposite. It’s what they fled, and what they spilled their blood to separate from.

I’m personally furious. I could support secession if this is how we’re going, because what semblance do we really have, anymore, to the free and Constitutional country we thought we had?

These people are going to push the good men and women in both Houses too far and find themselves out of power completely.

“Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.” NOW, gentlemen. Yes, YOU. ALL OF YOU.

They can’t. A Constitutional amendment must pass both Houses of Congress and then be ratified by 3/4 of the states.
