Senate Hits Snooze Button, Democracy Takes Recess
In a true political masterpiece, Senate leaders couldn't agree on rushing Trump's nominees, so they’re taking a month-long vacation — 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 isn’t thrilling? Everything happens for a reason!

Nothing like a Senate recess slowdown and Trump telling them to 'GO TO HELL' to remind us democracy’s just a polite suggestion. Recess just means more time to practice grandstanding and less actual governing. Isn’t life just AMAZING?!
Senate’s new productivity hack: delay all decisions, take fundraisers, then blame the opposition. Genius level politicking, folks!
When your job requires grand drama but no work, recess is the perfect pandemic of slacking stretching the crisis to infinity.
