Is the House and Senate back in Washington?

If not, they should be.

They should be meeting in emergency session. They should be talking. They should be discussing what is happening to our country? They need to put partisanship aside. They need to get serious.

The nation calls for them to act. They should not leave the room until they agree.

These are the times that the Congress can not be out to lunch.

I had forgotten that we even have another branch of the government. The only solution would be if the Republicans in the Senate came to their senses, asked Speaker Pelosi to pass another article of impeachment (promising to remove him this time), and voted 100 - 0 to boot him out. And then go after Pence and Barr. Quick impeachment of all of them.

But it will never happen. Moscow Mitch is too busy installing his toxic judges.

I don't know if they are in session, but we are at 17 on a scale of 1-10.

At the very most they be concerned until Trump does a tweet on them, then they cave.
