In re Senator Schmitt's faceplant, it was like a badly-staged middle-school play. All the Republican Senators could do was yell at Smith. What was the point? Sounds like the fake Atlanta trip story is still making the rounds. Weird. youtu.be/i4PWmvrZGn8?...

When confronted by current bad economic data showing things getting worse, Republicans blame Biden. When confronted with polls showing dissatisfaction, they say the polls are wrong. When confronted with election results of voter revolts, they say the elections are rigged.

Through the end of August 2026, the House was in session for roughly 383 hours total. That’s an average of about 48 hours per month. Their average monthly floor time is well below the 80-hour monthly threshold the same Congress imposed on Medicaid recipients.
