The House Freedom Caucus is publicly calling on the Senate to return to work, as the upper chamber is now in a two-week Independence Day recess. President Donald Trump and many Republicans still want to find a way for the SAVE America Act to get passed in the Senate.

Anthony Tollin, in “Too Hot for Radio” quotes Fred Allen’s take on radio executives:

All that is necessary is to substitute “Senators” for “radio executives.”

These assholes (all of them IMO) will have one Senator that is still around to gavel the Senate in for a few minutes and then gavel out. Thus it is deemed “In Session”.

Jerks. My Senator did it. Hawley has done it.

seditious conspiracy

It takes 5 to vote hil out- it takes 51 to name his replacement. That’s the hard part.
