This guy is a one-trick pony.
Have to oath in a Democrat who will trigger a vote his master doesn't like? Send everyone home!
Files that incriminates his master are being released? Send everyone home!
This tactic is getting old already.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I see it as them showing their hand. They know they cant take the heat, so they run. Pussies.
Hey now, pussies can take a pounding and keep on coming.
They also have depth and warmth that most if not all republicans lack.
🧑🍳 🤌
When does the coming happen? Asking for a friend. A highly unsatisfied friend.
Edit: i just noticed how this joke might be taken. Before the unsolicited offers and pictures come rolling in, thought I should make clear that A) this was entirely a joke, a complete fabrication, and B) that I'm a dude. Please don't send me pictures of your unimpressive dicks. I'll post them online.
What about impressive ones? /s

Republicans complain that government is ineffective and corrupt, then they get elected and prove it.
Members of your own party trying to force a vote to extend Obamacare subsidies? Send 'em home!
You forgot about his other trick: I haven't heard about that or I haven't had time to read that.
That's not his trick. That's a GOP trick.
I wish I got so many days off...
No shit! Same… add to that the best healthcare, transportation, and a personal assistant.
Pension too if you can last long enough
Pension for them is like 5 years or something absurd like that.
A pension is available to members 62 years of age with 5 years of service; 50 years or older with 20 years of service; or 25 years of service at any age. A reduced pension is available depending upon which of several different age/service options is chosen. If Members leave Congress before reaching retirement age, they may leave their contributions behind and receive a deferred pension later.[1]

It’s easy when special interests are paying you for NOT working. Sweet gig.
Dems should release more pics right when they come back.
lol. I love it. Keep a reserve of photos and keep trickling them out when the new cycle dies down.
Wait, there's a person named Noam Chomsky?
I've heard the name said on the news before but was never listening.
Isn't that the name of the gnome in the carnival campaign of Left 4 Dead 2?
He has to be a pedo.
The guy that shares details around jerking off with his son. Totally normal.

The epstein files are inevitable at this point and republicans are already getting marching orders for how to do damage control.
Mad props to AOC and I get why she wants to keep that in the cultural zeitgeist ahead of... tomorrow. But this is very much about house republicans breaking with johnson/doing token "See, I am one of the good ones" votes to override him on obamacare extensions and preventing trump from bombing Venezuela to distract from the epstein files.
Are we gonna see the naughty list soon?
He's making his list, redacting it twice, you'll never find out who's naughty or nice.

They're checking it twice.
It may also effectively kill the discharge petition for the 3-year extension of ACA subsidies vote.
I guess it's the land of the free after all if you can fuck a bunch of children and still be president

Is the idea that he knows the justice dept is going to delay, and if the house isn’t in session, they can’t do anything?
I wonder if the Republican voters recognize this is literally protecting pedophiles. There’s no way around it.

He sent everyone home because of the discharge petition for ACA. Epstein was coming anyway, this is about ripping healthcare away from millions. Which in Mike's own words....."It's only 7% of the country"
Wow, I don't know about you guys, but I've come to the end of my attention span. I guess there was never anything to see there after all, right?
Are there any conservatives out there that can tell us why you worship a pedophile?
These files must still have some juicy bits after redaction to pull this.
I think this is so there can be no council sessions that might be discussing the obviously over-censored and incomplete dataset released tomorrow before the GOP can sit their butts on billionaire owned media networks (hint: all of them are billionaire owned now) and give the idiots who listen to them their opinions.
Nothing spells guilt like..
I was promised all the epstein files today. Who do I call and complain to?

I'm sure he's going to run home to Louisiana and explain why he's blocking ACA subsidies
Grindr use is going to spike.
