House Speaker Mike Johnson has canceled Thursday’s planned votes, sending members home early ahead of the November midterm elections and telling reporters Wednesday that the House has “done its work.” “It’s time for our members to go home to their districts and make their case to the American people,”...

Incredible! Intentionally impacting an impeachment. The American people demand it #ImpeachPete

After doing fuck all this year. Sure, let the neo cons explain it to the voters.

Blocking an impeachment vote for Hegseth and another discharge petition for the Epstein files. Guardians Of Pedofiles

The GOPism led House hasn't done sh## for the people.

Mike is trying to squeeze in all the time off he possibly can. Next year he will actually have to work a full year.

The House has 'done its work'? Wow, didn't realize passing zero major legislation and going on an extended vacation counted as a full shift. Can I tell my boss I've 'done my work' and just leave two months early too?

Why can’t you tell the truth about why you are recessing Congress early? It isn’t because of the mid-terms and campaigning; it is because you are scared of the votes that would be cast on the impeachment resolution! That is the only difference between today and two days ago.

Obvious to those paying close attention that this is a way to avoid work that didn't get done, and avoid more work on the Hegseth impeachment articles that would have been taken up tomorrow. The time is closer for conservative voters waking up to what the GOP does in their name, which is (expletive here).

I have had enough of this. When you do show up, you spend your time arguing over things that aren’t going anywhere, holding votes designed to make headlines, and trying to get your name in the paper. You were elected to do a job. When are you going to do it? This country is facing enormous problems, and Congress acts as though there is always another day. Pass a CR, postpone the hard decisions, go home, campaign, raise money, please the donors—and we’ll see you again after the election. Meanwhile, taxpayers are left wondering when the next shutdown threat will arrive. We don’t need another CR. We need you to sit down and do the work. Give us 12 regular, clean appropriations bills. Go through the spending. Debate it. Ask why we are still paying for programs that are no longer necessary. Keep what we need and eliminate what we don’t. Let the public see what you’re voting to spend our money on. You were hired to represent the people and run the government, not continually postpone the job so you can get back to campaigning. The country has serious problems. Stay in Washington and do your job. What is wrong with you people?

Their case in a nut shell. Inflation is higher than expected, you are paying more at the pump for gas, your housing costs have exceeded inflation and your grocery bill is higher because of inflation. Immigration is getting under control. What did I miss?

If Congress’ job is to protect Donald Trump from the consequences of his actions and to be faithful toadies for his corrupt incompetent appointments then Congress has been faithful to that. And Johnson et al can just fuck all the way off.

Speaker Johnson is a coward!

Worst speaker of the house ever...in November..let's send him home permanently

The “case” is this House led by Speaker Johnson has been the most ineffective in US history. And they spent more time in recess - on vacation - than actually working for the American people. The days not in session are the facts.

Do you ever work Mike? Just running away from another vote.

If there was any time in history where a republican who votes party lines to vote differently, I hope you see that now is the time. Its not a loss to have a democratic rep or senator... its voting to step away from this daily shitshow.

Fake Christian Mike Johnson never ever gets tired of protecting rapists, pedophiles and war criminals.

All these vacations and refusing to even do your jobs is more than enough. We know what we have to do !! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸VOTE LIKE CRAZY IN HUGE NUMBERS !!! PACK THE HOUSE AND SENATE !! EVERYTHING !!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸ITS YOUR VOICE !!! YOU MATTER!! LETS HELP PUT THE BREAKS ON THIS CORRUPTION AND DESTRUCTION !!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏

They did almost nothing.

I wonder how he looks himself in the mirror.

He is such a pussy! They were off the entire month of August.👎

So not only did they get the month of August off and a couple of weeks in July now they’re getting the entire month of October off. Imagine if ordinary workers could do that.

COWARD

Mitch McConnell has worked more days this year than the House

This is ridiculous!!

AGAIN??? The do nothing congress

@ChanelSantos10 Seriously fuk this dude

Can you say pussy? @MikeJohnson

What work?

@YoungKimCA @SpeakerJohnson once again you do not work for your constituents - you bow a knee to your cult leader Trump and his band of criminals. Cowards all of you.

Coward they haven't accomplished anything for the US citizens. It's all been for the orange buffoon. Now they get to take another vacation all because they're scared about midterms.

He's a 🐔💩 politician

Congress never works. No surprise here. 🙄
