GOP Hopes Trump’s Recess Blitzkrieg: Senate or Bust
Senate Republicans, tired of the Democratic blockade, flirt with letting President Trump wield recess appointments like a political cheat code. Sen. Roger Marshall boldly urged, 'The Senate should immediately adjourn and let President Trump use recess appointments to enact the agenda 77M Americans voted for.' Democrats counter with budget contingencies, insisting on deals tied to federal funding releases. But with Majority Leader Thune confirming 'All options remain on the table,' it’s basically a legislative game of chicken where the chickens are wired on nuclear options and endless adjournments.

If Senate negotiations were a Netflix series, this season's title would be: 'Who Wants to Be a Recess Appointment?' Spoiler: Trump’s the surprise contestant with a veto hammer.
Watching GOP push recess appointments is like seeing someone try to skip the line at a bakery—mad, messy, and you just want to see the cake denied.
