A whole week early? Unacceptable. I don’t get an extended vacation when I feel like it. Why should they?
Because you allow it.
America must keep Dear Leader in power. They haven’t even got around to the portraits in every home yet. Probably won’t need to, it’s happening naturally.
Your deification of your elected leader is apparently so strong now that mere humans are abusable, at least non-cis-white-male-conservative-natural-Americans.
Squeaker of the House, Mike (‘Mickey’) Johnson…
This is the DEMOCRATS Fault that the Republican led House is Protecting Infamous CHILD SEX TRAFFICKER Jeffrey Epstein and his Best Friend Republican President DONALD J TRUMP!
Buying time to scrub records?

Very Christian of you, Mikey, to protect your false idol’s pedophilic actions.
Don’t lump chickens in with them. This isn’t cowardice, it’s complicity.
A lot of the people in charge of the country are child rapists.
Chickens are also capable of intelligence, compassion, and bravery protecting their flock. So unfair comparison, really.
It is a Tuesday. 🌮
I don’t understand the premise of frequent recesses, anymore. They seemed reasonable when people were traveling by horse and buggy and required 2-4 weeks to get back to their district, but now? In the era of phones and planes, why do they still deserve to get half the year off?
Well, it shouldn’t quite be half the year, but it makes sense to plan some official time to be back in your district. Your constituents shouldn’t have to travel to DC to see you in person.
The MAGA Nazis are avoiding meeting their constituents at all costs. It’s just a vacation for them.
Probably not. Appeasing their corporate overlords takes a lot of work.
The real constituents.
I believe they call it a “Klavern”
But they’re mostly just dicking around elsewhere with the free time. The time isn’t bound to any structure. I wouldn’t doubt that we get less time with our representatives today than at the founding of the country, when dying of dysentery was a plausible end for a casual walk.
Also with telecommunications, we should reasonably be able to access our representatives wherever they are at all times. It’s not like we don’t live in a videoconference connected world, we absolutely do. We have phones, email, videoconferencing, and all manner of being able to directly contact our representatives without having to travel to Washington DC.
Since DC can get very hot and humid in the summers, I can see why you’d want to get the heck out of there in the days before AC.
Because you allow it.
They still need all that time off to suck up to the donor class, though, don’t they? Because fuck you, is why.
Because it’s a club and we’re not in it.

Here is an amazing write up on all of trump’s connections to epstein.
Thanks. I’m embarrassed to admit that I thought the 2003 birthday letter was a meme, until right now.
Like the text was real, but somebody superimposed it onto a lurid drawing, adding T’s signature for extra disgust.
Turns out it was Trump himself who did all that. And thanks to the WSJ for holding up to at least some journalistic integrity, sticking to the truth.
Well, this will put those conspiracy allegations to bed.
“Christian” Mike Johnson doing his best to give cover to pedophiles. Wonder if him and his son discuss these sins at bedtime together while going over their porn monitoring.
No rule against pedophilia in the Ten Commandments.

Mickey (‘Mike’) Johnson, Squeaker of the House!
So Christian he’s practically Catholic.
Protestants have plenty of child rape as well. For instance, maga mikey’s church…

Fair enough.
It really seems like most of Christianity’s leadership fucks kids pr enables others to do so. Its disgusting.
That pretty much confirms it

I reckon a good number of them won’t be returning from recess. They’ll start sounding up the neurodivergents for the “wellness camps” during the August recess and also use the opportunity to murder or jail their opponents probably using ICE operatives. Dark times ahead.
Fucking cowards. Stop protecting pedophiles.
Unfortunately- in this case- self-preservation is usually a very strong drive in human nature.
