Right, and Trump wouldn't sign them anyway.

Sure, all highly partisan meant to appeal to their radical base. Not a single one they worked across the isle to try to actually get anything accomplished!

H.R. 1 literally is about a lot of things that should be non-partisan, but the Republican party doesn't believe in ethics at this point.

Not true. There are at least 169 bills that were so bi-partisan that they passed by voice vote sitting on McConnell's desk.

I find it funny how the house didn’t let Republicans choose witnesses or even ask the majority of the questions they wanted and now they think they can control how the Republican controlled Senate conducts their business lol. I agree with Trump, make it a big thing, call in Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, Schiff etc.

Withholding many House-passed bills and Merrick Garland is constitutional extortion. Karma takes time.

Nancy is waiting for assurance the Senate will not hold a trial to protect the Bidens and shifless.

I don't agree with not sending the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate unless the House is going to use the time to force the Executive to comply with the subpoenas but Lindsey Graham can take his disingenuous complaints and victim mentality and shove them up his rectum
The Constitution is silent on the topic. Graham knows this and is counting on Voters not knowing.

He’s up for re-election in 2020.

Democrats you can thank the progressives in your party for losing the election. Now more than ever I see why it’s important to have Republican senators and congressmen. I wish we could get real gun control legislation passed and that was a big reason why I was considering if nothing else, I’ll vote for Trump and vote Democrats down the line because if a bill got sent to his desk, I bet Trump would sign it, but not anymore. Democrats have gone off the deep end!

Nancy Pelosi is giving Mitch McConnell a taste of his own medicine!
