The Senate has pro forma sessions planned to keep the lights on. Obama will not get away with a recess appointment. In fact, the Court smacked him down 9-0 when he tried one a few years ago.

Scalia died in his sleep. These conspiracy theories have to stop. It makes us look bad.

“Scalia died in his sleep.”

An assumption since he died with a pillow over his head, was pronounced over the phone, no autopsy, then taken to a remote funeral home.

Can’t look worse after the DJT ringmaster and his 3-4 stooges began their inane juvenile acts on the public stage.

Where did you get this from? I'm looking at the U.S. Senate: Calendar right now, and the next business is scheduled for Monday, Feb 22, 2016: 3:00 p.m.: "Convene and proceed to the reading of Washington's Farewell Address. Thereafter, begin a period of morning business."

Article 1
Section 5
Neither House, during the Session of Congress, shall, without the Consent of the other, adjourn for more than three days, nor to any other Place than that in which the two Houses shall be sitting.

Clearly the House too has authority to meet pro-forma to keep the in-session requirement fulfilled.

These conspiracy theories have to stop. It makes us look bad. Gee im worried about looking bad, if you question anything these days already you’re a conspiracy nut with a tin foil hat. Take into consideration what kind of devious parasitic sub humans we have in control and what damage they have done already. They will stop at nothing to meet thier ends

Doubt it. The house agreed to the resolution. They are in a intersession recess.

It is fascinating that the recess is at the 10 day mark. Scalia had interesting things to say about the length of time of a recess in Canning. 10 days MIGHT be enough for a Recess Appointment.
