Yeah, the president can call Congress for a special session. But then Pelosi can just use the gavel and adjourn immediately. She has too much power.

Please read the constitution, Pelosi cannot, cannot adjourn if the President calls a special session, the President is the only one who can decide to adjourn if he calls a special session.

If the president can call a special session and is the only one who can adjourn it why doesn’t he call it?

Hmm, OK. I’ll read the Constitution, but are you sure you’re right?

I was just reporting what was explained by our own Republican heroes yesterday from the House on C-Span... that Pelosi can gavel a special session. I certainly didn’t make that up.
