Senate Hits Snooze Button, Democracy Takes Recess

In a true political masterpiece, Senate leaders couldn't agree on rushing Trump's nominees, so theyâre taking a month-long vacation â because nothing says 'urgent policymaking' like fundraisers and town halls! Trump cheered them on with a fiery Truth Social post: 'Have a great RECESS and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!' Meanwhile, Democrats warned about a 'nuclear' rules change that might shake the Senate forever. At least now, both parties get some well-deserved R&R while plotting new ways to keep the stalemate going. Who said politics isnât thrilling? Everything happens for a reason!
