Those sissies on the GOP just want to wait until after their "Christmas Break".

The should remain in Washington until the peoples business is finished.

We’ll see. It’s possible that they wanted to wait until the impeachment inquiry passed. I don’t understand all the legal subtleties, but it’s my understanding that enforcing subpoenas is easier under an official impeachment inquiry.

Yes. Opening up an impeachment inquiry is discovery; now the House will have more subpoena power and authority.

“Patience grass hopper…”

Hope they don’t fall asleep and miss their election.

Also, don’t do or say anything about Eric Swalwell helping Hunter skip his meeting. A violation of Law? Well it certainly doesn’t equal pulling a fire alarm.

Just think about it, it took the Republicans over 11 months to figure out they needed a vote for an impeachment inquiry.

“And in 2025 they will be down to the 180-190 range again.”

Sad but very true, I’ve been saying this ever since the beginning of the year but they don’t listen.

Trump seems to be aware of this failure also as he is now urging the Senate to be careful and gain more seats. It would be his only protection.

On the bright side, maybe we can rid ourselves of 50-60 moderates.

What’s wrong with these pussies?

They don't have the votes to control the House.

All Democrats vote with their leadership on all issues that come to the floor.

Depending on the issue, there are 5-20 Republicans that will vote with all Democrats to form a working majority. On abortion, there are probably 40-50 Republicans who would defect.

Of course, the Democrats can only keep their bloc together as a minority with known Republican allies.

After 2025 when the Democrats have a large majority again, hey will have some defectors over Ukraine, Israel, and the border.

Probably a good idea. Now Hunter can be subpoenaed as part of the Biden impeachment inquiry. The subpoena will have more importance.

Exactly. A new subpoena will be part of the Biden impeachment inquiry.
