Whistling past the graveyard? Sorry, I don’t buy it. That line from Aliens, when the dropship leaves the Sulaco and Hudson yells out “we’re on an express elevator to Hell.”
There is precious little time for Congress to get anything accomplished. Look for a Christmas shutdown when the current CR expires on 12/11. The RATs will hold out until they take control of Congress in January. Then it will be hearings and Impeachment 24/7.
The dems will definitely go for impeachment 3.0, especially now that they have a majority in the senate as well. Although they won't get enough votes to actually remove Trump, they will get a majority vote in the senate to do so, and that will give the media a talking point to focus on leading into 2028.
