As a Republican, I don't care if Johnson can use the recess appointment. This is not the intended use. Let it play out. If it costs us Gaetz, so be it. I won't shed any tears.
 
From what I understand, only Johnson has to sign off on using a recess, is that right?
From my understanding: Since mitch says no recess appts, let us say the senate fails to set a date. Johnson can call for a date to recess the house. That would allow the president to step in and set a date to resolve the dispute. I'm certain the D would fight it. It appears to be in the constitution, but I don't think it has been used in that manner before. Not 100% on it though.

Well gaveling the Senate into session and the bullshit pro forma session strategy while the senators jerk off at home is also outside the spirit of the process, so you’ve gotta do what you gotta do.
 
Wow. Mitch is pretty normal.
If it were up to me, I'd start at the very top of this graph and start investigating how they managed to beat a very good S&P by 500% or more. Honestly, there may be a very legitimate reason - start up company went crazy, they bought a bunch of options (leverage) on NVDA or others that went through the rood (although I'd question WHY they were so inclined to do so since leverage works both ways), and other ways. But, my guess is there's something fishy about many of these jokers making so much money in the market in one year. Maybe that's how so many somehow go from somewhat well off to fabulously wealthy in just a few years of 'public service'.
 
They won't resign, they really have no where else to go. (They always talk big and tough but they are not.) They sure like the dough too. You will have to remove their jobs to get them out then watch the lawyers go to work stealing and pillaging, and...
^this X 1,000. A bunch of government workers are threatening to quit? Great. Who would hire them? They have no risk of ever being fired or their company going through hard times and laying people off. You can be a lazy ass and never lose your job. Great benefits and strong pension that is indexed for inflation, not to mention many enjoy government retiree health coverage which is generally less expensive with richer benefits than Medicare supplement plans that the serfs purchase. Exhibit A of 'Empty Threat' with Exhibit B thru Z all the ridiculous celebrities 'threatening' to leave the US. Does anyone care if George Clooney or Bruce Springsteen don't live in the US? Anyone? Buehler?
 
As long as you have ownership at these mainstream outlets that is seriously compromised or biased with an agenda, trying to work with them will be futile. Remove the ability for the DNC to feed them their talking points. Also remove the ability for companies like Pfizer who holds federal contracts to basically sponser and advertise on all the primary media outlets, thus creating conflicts of interest when it comes to investigating them and protecting the public.

Scarborough is seeing his competitor at Fox end up as SecDef while Morning Joe becomes the morning equivalent of Joy Reid's show. He wants Republican guests and to be relevant again. A good first step would be to jettison "Reverand Al" as one of your top contributors.
 
Gaetz won’t get confirmed. He made a lot of enemies with the McCarthy stuff. Say what you want about McCarthy, but the guy is one of the best fundraisers the party has ever seen.

Sen. Thom Tillis’ Halloween party invites last year had Gaetz as an unflattering zombie on it…it’s not just the Murkowski’s and Collins’.

DeSantis could earn back some good will from Trump folks by appointing him to the Senate, because I don’t think he wins the race without an appointment…especially without massive fundraising. If he’s appointed, then RUNS, he gets a lot of that fundraising back as the NRSC, etc have to back the GOP incumbent.

Don’t know if that’s the plan, but it’s what makes the most sense to me.
 
How many were cabinet level appointments? And how many were to ram through appointment(s) that apparently would not be successful even in a friendly Senate?
What difference does that make? The Constitution doesn't say what kind of appointments they have to be.

The Senate is b/t a rock and a hard place. Either confirm Gaetz or risk him becoming a colleague and having to deal with him daily.

Not disagreeing with your last statement.

But what makes them "new" ballots? Any ballot not counted yet is new unless they arrive at the count location now. Which/what is it? CA is known to have 1-2M uncounted ballots yet. Does that make them new? Tell me what the fraud is vs. just claiming it. CA is known to take forever to count. It's BS I agree.
They are new because they were not cast on election night. It doesn't take 2 weeks to get mail from 100 miles away. Your ability to defend outright corruption is amazing. If they are still counting newly found ballots on Christmas, you'd find a way to defend it because you can't admit what is right in front of your face.
 
The Senate has to be in recess. There doesn't have to be agreement with the House. Net, don't see what Johnson/House has to do with it.
Wrong. The president can order the Senate to recess with the approval of the Speaker. once the Senate is in recess for 10 days Trump can appoint anyone he wants.
 


Translation: Trump makes money off these Bibles so we’ll funnel taxpayer dollars back to him and force Christianity upon kids of all religions. No wonder Oklahoma is 49th in education.
 
Zero evidence he ever did anything inappropriate with his daughter. She has never come out and said he specifically did anything.
She wrote it in her own words in her diary you idiot. Good lord. She said it has screwed her up sexually. You are a fraud. You don't care about preg 12yo girls. Its just a political stick to swing. If you cannot agree that the known pervert...WHO WALKS AROUND NAKED at his home, has showered with his daughter when she and he were old enough to know its WRONG in any situation. You are a fraud.

They basically stole his first 4 years with fake RussiaGate. We aren't going to pretend everything is cool now. Gaetz had fbi agents try to extort money from him and his dad due to baseless sex allegation. They were going to throw Gen Flynn in jail when they knew he didn't break the law... they literally withheld exculpatory evidence just to try to get him to flip on Trump.

People have to go to jail and we can't get a Lindsey Graham type in there who would be willing to take a "My bad" as enough punishment.

But she did record it in her diary.
You know, the book people write their innermost thoughts in.
Of course no msm member would ever question her regarding this, but it has been reported on.
Not zero evidence.

He'll be out of a job soon. MSNBC is getting sold and advertising is drying up for leftwing news propagandist.
