Yet another reason the Congress should remove all losers as soon as the election is certified.
Lame duck sessions are a fraud on the electorate.
Limiting the ability of career pols to cause damage immediately after an election in which they lost power needs to be done. An Article V Convention of the States will be needed to do it, since the Swamp will never reform itself.
HR1 of the new congress should be election integrity.
This is Manchin’s chance to get revenge for the Dems screwing him over on the Massive climate bill.
The new Congress can just spend a few days rescinding everything passed in the last 2 years. Then do away with the horror of omnibus bills and get down to repairing the damage down. Maybe clean out some administrators.
As soon as they lose their election they should be marched out in handcuffs. Liz Cheney has been a lame duck for months & look at the damage she’s still causing.
They will attach all their schemes to the budget and then blame republicans for not passing a budget.
If it is signed into law, it will take the signature of Biden to undo it. Biden will be told not to do it.
Why would you march them out in handcuffs??? We are not yet a banana republic and the talk of handcuffs, and all the other crazy rhetoric doesn’t do anybody any good.
Yeah we all know about the lame duck stuff but that’s how Congress works. You want to change it then either get elected or make sure whomever you elect remembers who they work for...We the People.

New congress, but same old Republican “leadership”.
Get ready for an avalanche of excuses for noting doing anything constructive.
They will attach all their schemes to the budget and then blame republicans for not passing a budget.

And the Republicans will cower in fear of being criticized. Some things never change.
Just wait and see who the lame duck Republicans jam through as the new Speaker should they win!
I told ya they would. They can spend trillions and pass some fat-handed legislation wiping out swaths of constitutional protections.
Senate can override.
Both houses have to override with 2/3 vote. Extremely unlikely.
If the new Congress passes a bill of recension and Biden vetoes it only requires the Senate to override.
Where in the Constitution do you find that?
Not true.
