Will we have to wait until after November elections for Congress to take back its Article One powers?

MAGA Mike Johnson surrendered everything to the Executive Branch. He has to be one of the lowest rated characters in American history - right next to Benedict Arnold. He is lower than whale shit.

But hopefully, Congress will reclaim its powers after the November elections. They will be able to subpoena people and ask questions. They can investigate what has been going on under the cloak of darkness. They can demand answers.

It will be a different world than what we have known.

Donald Trump's puppet world will end.

1. Not till next January

When the newly elected members take their seats.

2. That's the period that that Trump likes to use to conspire...

...as he did on January 6th.

4. Indeed!

And if the Dems take control of even one house of Congress, let alone if they take both, he'll feel desperate to do something during that time.

3. The new Congress doesn't get sworn in until January.
