They have been for years! I honestly can't think of anything Congress has done that was good for the American people when the republicans have had control.
@@adotjon78busy being president of the United States! What is the convicted felon doing today? Spewing lies and misinformation and sounding like a carnival barker?😊
Wondering what they are taking a break from since they have accomplished NOTHING since they took a majority. I never had a job like that…..most of us have not….
But they need a break for all the blood, sweat, and tears they went through trying to damage every Democrat they could instead of actually doing their jobs and legislating for the good of their constituents and the nation as a whole.
These breaks are supposed to be for them to go back to their home districts/states and continue working there on local stuff. But the GQP folks will be going home empty handed, which will not play well.
They owe *SO* much more than that but I'd be willing to settle for none of them ever darkening D.C. again! They're going home? GOOD, let them stay there!
They could have said we passed a good border control bill but their dear leader said don't pass it so he can run on it. Shows how much they really cared about the border.
Vote blue, or it will be the last time you will have the chance. Tfg just said on a recent rally that if you vote for him, you wont have to vote again "we're fixing it so good" and that is a direct quote from orange menace
That's exactly how they do it in Rus and Hungary and China. Hear that Magats? Better wake up, if you think your life is bad now, keep supporting the orange menace.
This isn't even a sound bite taken out of context. Google "trump believers summit cspan" and go to 1 hour 3 minutes in the video and you can see it for yourself.
Never let anyone tell you what someone else said. I just watched that video, and yes, it could easily (very easily!) be taken as a statement of impending dictatorship, but what I think the orange potato really meant was that he would enact all the legislation the Christian right wants so they won't need to be politically active afterwards. It's too easy to put the worst possible spin on anything your opponent says, but it's a disservice. There are plenty of examples from both sides to illustrate this, but we don't have to be part of that problem. If something sounds outrageous, look deeper.
@louisa6948 It isn't, because Affirmative Action gives qualified people a chance who would be passed over otherwise. It isn't equivalent to hiring mediocrity, despite the spin. As recently as this month, a black man sent his resume to the same hotel with his real name and a name that sounded white (Dombrowski, or something). He got an interview as the latter. There was an element of compensating for woefully underfunded schools by giving promising kids from disadvantaged backgrounds a chance. I agree that this, rather than primarily race, should be the focus. That said, in a country where Serena Williams nearly died after giving birth because her doctor didn't take her seriously, it seems like your analogy could use a tweak.
Essentially proving there is no "crisis" there. And indeed the actual crisis is in the countries those people are fleeing, even risking death to do so. The overall phenomena reminds me starkly of "The Trail of Tears." And many of us do know who intentionally helped create those crises, and for whom it would profit.

I have completely lost track of how many times congress has taken a break. Not that anything important has been accomplished when they are actually in session, but the amount paid down time is shameful.
All that time the House Repubs devoted to impeachments, Hunter’s laptop, speakership infighting, and NOT ONE ITEM passed for the betterment of the American people. Sheesh.
The dems should do a breakdown of how much of our tax dollars have been wasted this past session. At least 80 mil for congress salaries alone. That doesn’t include staff wages and all the other stipends they get. A reminder for us the importance of voting up and down the ballot.
The truly evil part is they aren't all know nothing hacks. Many know exactly what they're doing like Bond Villians trying to doom the majority of the country to lives of mysery and servitude who are supposed to thank them for the metaphorical trickle of urination they've allowed to avoid their grasp for we the plebes to survive on.
Their constituents think they are battling out the latest conspiracy theory their lackeys taught their voters to believe is real. The thing is that some good portion of people tend to think is more exciting and compelling [like TV] rather than reality they think is boring [because school taught them to feel this way?].
The problem is, they didn't et sent their to legislate. They got sent there to play games and engage in bonkers rhetoric. You can't tell me that the people who elected Boebert and Taylor-Greene expected or desired anything but chaos.
The only thing I can think of for the republicans to tell their constituents is that they stopped everything the Dems wanted to do. That will make their base happy, right?
That worked for McConnell over in the Senate. He stated more than once the job of the then Senate Republicans was to deny any legislation Obama wanted. Today's House are just copying McConnell's playbook.
I sat and watched the twitter feed of the voting this week. Voting, but not passing anything. It's incredible that they put up so many votes and have zero to show for it. The disfunction is incredible.
I hear they are starting a band called The Procrastinators and they are currently arguing about a set list full of songs they havent written yet for a gig no one has booked. When your only policy is "I am against what ever you are for" this is what you get.
Forgive my cynicism, but I don't think not passing legislation is going to be a problem for the GOP, one might argue it's half the point of the party's existence.
Their constituents can start by keeping the three stooges home permanently! Lauren Boebert (CO) Marjorie Taylor Green (GA) Elise Stefanik (NY) Again, what’s with their constituents 💆♀️.. they’ve done nothing for them and yet they keep sending re-electing them🤦♀️
Former President Donald Trump urged Christians to vote, saying they wouldn’t have to vote again if they got out there in November and elected him. Said during the Turning Point Action Believers’ Summit 7/26/2024
I normally don’t hope for a government shut down, but in this case the short term pain will be worth it if swing voters can be reminded of how useless the GQP is.
key word "TRYING"... who knew you had to show an actual "high crime or misdemeanor" in order to do this. I expect TFG to be ignorant such details, but entire caucuses in Congress?
to be fair, Comer did say this past week that trump would indict Joe if he wins the election. that committee laid all the groundwork for them. also, to be fair, trump was gonna indict Joe no matter what. republicans will be REALLY POed if trump loses and they can't get their revenge.
They passed bills to allow less efficient appliances so their constituents will have to pay more to use the - but none of them were passed by the Senate 🤦♀️
I think the American people need to send a VERY CLEAR signal to all the GOP this November. We'll put you back in office when you get your "stuff" together.
"They don't have much to show for it"- but what about that SUPER IMPORTANT bill to revoke energy standards on household appliances? Unfortunately, doing jack shit for "their constituents" has never prevented them from getting re-elected.
Maybe, but blaming Biden who isn't even running is kind of a moot point. What could possibly be the result? That their zombie-base doesn't vote for Biden? Those people are going to vote for Rump anyway, so no practical difference.
@BeauOfTheFifthColumn I'm in Tom Emmer's district. This is what they are going to be running on, he sent out this email this week. Exciting news! This week the House of Representatives passed the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act for fiscal year 2025. This legislation included targeted, federal funding for hard infrastructure projects in the Sixth Congressional District; funds that our office fought to secure to ensure our taxpayer dollars are being used efficiently. It included a map with where the money was going in MN. But looking at the vote record, it won't pass the Senate nor the President. But they will run on this.
It is common sense that in a fairly balanced congress, zero compromise equals zero accomplishment. Uncompromising ideology equals compromised effectuality.
GQP to constituents "We almost stopped Biden from forgiving student debt. And we almost stopped aid to Ukraine. And we're almost sure we had something to do with Biden dropping out, which caused TFG to go from leading in the polls by 6 points to now being dead even with Harris." Aren't we great! You should defiantly send us back to continue our great accomplishments.
Hey Beau and team. Is there a plan to cover Kevin Roberts' recent ominous speech? e.g. "We are winning... in ways the other side doesn't know... we're not gonna tell you everything that's coming...." People seem worried that the fix is already in.
This is scary indeed. What are they planning? An October surprise? Tampering with the votes? The fake elector scheme again? Me too, I'd love to hear what Beau thinks about that.
Oh good grief, September 30th is a Monday and October 1st is a Tuesday this year. Please let these people gain a few grains of sense before September. Or not. Republicans holding up the budget during an election year wasn't on my bingo card, yet some of them might try it.
As others have said, I'm normally against shutdowns (because of how many who can't afford it get hurt), but in this case, the short term pain might be worth the damage it causes to Republicans
Instead of religious nonsense, like the 10 Commandments, this is the stuff that should be taught/ shown in our schools; just general functions (or in the case of the GOP ,malfunctions) of government. These short videos would be perfect!- kids wouldn’t get distracted by some long drawn out boring presentation. Way to go Beau!👍
I can’t ever understand why anyone would Vote for any republican. Even those of the GOP who wasn’t in the part of the news cycles because they also voted along party lines. It’s not just a few bad apples, the whole crop is tainted.
I don’t know anyone locally that wouldn’t be fired from their jobs if after at least 6 months there was absolutely zero work done. And there was a constant last minute scramble to do the absolute bare minimum.
The House GOP is utter waste of taxpayer money.

Doing nothing is very tiring. They can’t even claim they passed legislation but the democrats in the Senate wouldn’t act.
eh not like red state rethug voters care about real legislation
Remembering a constantly changing ocean of lies must be exhausting.
I hear they are starting a band called The Procrastinators and they are currently arguing about a set list full of songs they havent written yet for a gig no one has booked. When your only policy is "I am against what ever you are for" this is what you get.
Hopefully the energy from Harris will roll down the ballot.
Forgive my cynicism, but I don't think not passing legislation is going to be a problem for the GOP, one might argue it's half the point of the party's existence.
It sure gets old paying a worker for no work performed,but that's the Republican way.
I was always told that happens only in communist countries😂 I guess their full name should be 'People's Republican Party'
Then there's the Trump way, make them work but don't pay them
Love the T-shirt !! The House MAGA ain't got nothin'. PERIOD !! Clear them all out !! VOTE BLUE !!
hope every one of em has to face the tough questions from their betrayed constituencies... Vote for Childless Cat Ladies!
💃💃🐆💃🐆💃🐆💃💃
Their constituents can start by keeping the three stooges home permanently!
Lauren Boebert (CO)
Marjorie Taylor Green (GA)
Elise Stefanik (NY)
Again, what’s with their constituents 💆♀️.. they’ve done nothing for them and yet they keep sending re-electing them🤦♀️
They have an "R" next to their names and, for some, that is enough.
We're living in a historical moment. Which side you're on is gonna matter.
Former President Donald Trump urged Christians to vote, saying they wouldn’t have to vote again if they got out there in November and elected him.
Said during the Turning Point Action Believers’ Summit 7/26/2024
I normally don’t hope for a government shut down, but in this case the short term pain will be worth it if swing voters can be reminded of how useless the GQP is.
The GOP knows they don't really need to DO anything to satisfy their voters. They just have to keep making up crap that makes them mad or fearful.
they did spend about 2 years and millions upon millions trying to impeach a lame duck president, that's an accomplishment, right?
Yeah but they FAILED to impeach Biden. So they're all LOSERS.
key word "TRYING"... who knew you had to show an actual "high crime or misdemeanor" in order to do this.
I expect TFG to be ignorant such details, but entire caucuses in Congress?
I'm actually shocked they got absolutely nothing.. despite all this 'Evidence'
I want a refund, GQP!
This is not what I agreed to pay for. 😠
to be fair, Comer did say this past week that trump would indict Joe if he wins the election.
that committee laid all the groundwork for them.
also, to be fair, trump was gonna indict Joe no matter what.
republicans will be REALLY POed if trump loses and they can't get their revenge.
Vote them OUT in November. Every last one!!
They secured the rights of home appliances, that's something, isn't it ??
Woohoo! 😆🤣😆
Have you heard? They're trying to take away our bunion removers!!!
...and they helped preserve electric sharks
Hands off my bunion remover big government !!!!!
They passed bills to allow less efficient appliances so their constituents will have to pay more to use the - but none of them were passed by the Senate 🤦♀️
I think the American people need to send a VERY CLEAR signal to all the GOP this November. We'll put you back in office when you get your "stuff" together.
They busted the spending omnibus into 12 different spending bills and passed half of those.
"They don't have much to show for it"- but what about that SUPER IMPORTANT bill to revoke energy standards on household appliances? Unfortunately, doing jack shit for "their constituents" has never prevented them from getting re-elected.
Won't they just blame the Democratic president?
Of course they will. They won’t even have to think about it. They are already gearing up to blame the VP for the “ border crisis.”
No they'll blame the "Democrat" president.😉
Maybe, but blaming Biden who isn't even running is kind of a moot point. What could possibly be the result? That their zombie-base doesn't vote for Biden? Those people are going to vote for Rump anyway, so no practical difference.
@BeauOfTheFifthColumn
I'm in Tom Emmer's district. This is what they are going to be running on, he sent out this email this week.
Exciting news! This week the House of Representatives passed the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act for fiscal year 2025. This legislation included targeted, federal funding for hard infrastructure projects in the Sixth Congressional District; funds that our office fought to secure to ensure our taxpayer dollars are being used efficiently.
It included a map with where the money was going in MN. But looking at the vote record, it won't pass the Senate nor the President. But they will run on this.
It is common sense that in a fairly balanced congress, zero compromise equals zero accomplishment. Uncompromising ideology equals compromised effectuality.
The House destroyed themselves from within. They took us along on their miserable ride. VOTE HARRIS in ROEVEMBER 🇺🇸💙
Flush the GOP in November!
GQP to constituents "We almost stopped Biden from forgiving student debt. And we almost stopped aid to Ukraine. And we're almost sure we had something to do with Biden dropping out, which caused TFG to go from leading in the polls by 6 points to now being dead even with Harris." Aren't we great! You should defiantly send us back to continue our great accomplishments.
They could have been bragging about Border Legislation. It was right there.. that's gotta sting.
I'm sure speaker Mikey is feeling proud and will tell his constituents:
"We're doing the Lord's work fighting the enemy for you."
The Lord got more done in a week than his narrow ass got done in his entire tenure. Maybe learn the Lord doesnt like liars Mikey
Wish I knew how to spell the sound of strangled screaming.
Hey Beau and team. Is there a plan to cover Kevin Roberts' recent ominous speech? e.g. "We are winning... in ways the other side doesn't know... we're not gonna tell you everything that's coming...." People seem worried that the fix is already in.
This is scary indeed. What are they planning? An October surprise? Tampering with the votes? The fake elector scheme again? Me too, I'd love to hear what Beau thinks about that.
My rep said he brought all kinds of $ back for infrastructure with a bi partisan bill. He doesn't mention he voted against it!
Remind him ofvthat when he runs again
I wish the government would post the cost of each representative branch. And also all the perks and breaks they get.
They've been very hard at work doing absolutely nothing.
Oh good grief, September 30th is a Monday and October 1st is a Tuesday this year. Please let these people gain a few grains of sense before September.
Or not. Republicans holding up the budget during an election year wasn't on my bingo card, yet some of them might try it.
As others have said, I'm normally against shutdowns (because of how many who can't afford it get hurt), but in this case, the short term pain might be worth the damage it causes to Republicans
Yea....these people really need a break!!!!they have done nothing!!!! They should just stay home..... You're Fired
Money for nothing.
And empty rhetoric for free!
Yeah cus the chicks have high priced NDAs
Instead of religious nonsense, like the 10 Commandments, this is the stuff that should be taught/ shown in our schools; just general functions (or in the case of the GOP ,malfunctions) of government.
These short videos would be perfect!- kids wouldn’t get distracted by some long drawn out boring presentation.
Way to go Beau!👍
Beau , you’re on fire these days… fantastic coverage. Thank you!
They will do what they do best, blame someone else.
⬆️🎯
The House GOP did so little legislative work this year, that the GOP justices decided to make up for it by legislating from the supreme Court rulings.
As a group, they have made fools of themselves. That’s pretty clear.
They voted NO a lot
Whenever it is wherever you are, I hope it's good!
Sorry that I couldnt accomplish anything; I was too busy fighting wokeness!
I can’t ever understand why anyone would Vote for any republican. Even those of the GOP who wasn’t in the part of the news cycles because they also voted along party lines. It’s not just a few bad apples, the whole crop is tainted.
Unfortunately their constituents don't seem to care.
I don’t know anyone locally that wouldn’t be fired from their jobs if after at least 6 months there was absolutely zero work done. And there was a constant last minute scramble to do the absolute bare minimum.
One would hope they don't get sent back, but how many will just vote for the incumbent no matter what.
Hello everyone. Good morning to you all!
