It was good to get a recap of the year’s happenings in Congress, but it’s a little dispiriting to see so little done that it written up in 1000 words. Hopefully subsequent sessions will be more productive, but given that a good number of politicians seem to be more interested in campaigning for the next election rather than effectively governing the country, this seems increasingly unlikely.
The Libertarians are happy.
The Do Nothing Congress is the Got Nothing Congress in regards to this.

…I’ll see myself out.
Republicans. Cannot. Govern.
And, despite the endless stream of stupidity from the party of domestic terrorism, we are safer for their incompetence.
Mission Accomplished!
This congress has the number two spot for least productive congress ever.
They should have there pay tied to their efficiency.
They were busy doing more important things, like giving guys handjobs in theaters and sharing pictures of Hunter Biden’s dick on the senate floor.

I mean. That’s why we elect these people, right?
And this is what republican control looks like.
But they still got paid….🤔
