Is this a “real” recess, where Trump could make recess appointments? That would clear the backlog.
“There’s no purpose for the Congress to push an administration to do something they’re already doing”
I’m sorry, what? Trump told everyone to stop talking about it.
Johnson is rebuffing pressure to act on the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, instead sending members home early for a month-long break from Washington.
Phew that was close they almost had to stay and get something done what they were elected to do.
Par
Trump directed the release of the Epstein grand jury transcripts.
They are such a bunch of nimrods. Now how long is their break, till Christmas or something? I know; they have to come back and push through a continuing resolution in the fall, again, in a hurry because they haven’t done their work beforehand.
OH BOY-—OH BOY-—OH BOY
WOULD THAT FRY THE DEMS?????
There are no files.
There are no videos.
Nobody was trafficked.
Epstein killed himself.
Nothing to see here.
People who ask questions are “bad people” (the president’s own words)
/sarc
THEY GET AUGUST OFF——WITH PAY
Ah republicans. Never passing up a chance to lose at every chance they get.
What a shitful excuse to do nothing and go home.
If the senate goes into recess also.
Maybe I’m diving into the lions den, but I think I’m gonna go with Johnson on this one.
Perhaps Trump is still playing chess with it.
So the Biden DOJ pulled out everything they could to jail Trump. Even making up crimes to try in front of a rigged NY Court. Yet somehow they did not use the Epstein silver bullet that would have ended Trump political career forever.
Just how f’in stupid are the screaming clowns in Conservative Inc?
These a-holes don’t do anything but steal money and act deplorable. The GOP is purposely sinking the President Trump agenda and administration.
What going to happen next?
Nothing is what happens next.
You all have worked yourself up into this imaginary bubble world where you think Epstein's list is going to be the magic silver bullet where you finally get all the people you hate in politics.
It won't
Law doesn't work like you wanna be lynch mobbers in Conservative Inc thinks it does. Being on a list is not a crime. You have to build cases against each and everyone on the list and prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that they are guilty of crimes.
As we saw in the Diddy case, rich people buy their way out of prison with high priced legal teams.
So Conservative Inc has worked itself up into hysterics about something that is going to be completely meaningless in the end. Meanwhile real things that actually are important, like the Senate approving Trump's judicial appointments, are ignored so Conservative inc can hyperventilate about nothing
‘instead sending members home early for a month-long break from Washington after the week’s legislative agenda”
I wonder how long a typical work week is for members of Congre$$.
The pedos will be exposed. Any effort to hold the files form view protects these pedos.
Wrong house.
“ I wonder how long a typical work week is for members of Congre$$.”
A typical work week is Tuesday through Thursday. Someone comes into the House or Senate on Monday and gavels in a session. A couple of people might speak and then the session is gaveled out. Repeat on Friday. This is called a pro forma session.
It prevents the President from being able to make any recess appointments.
