  The only thing the House is planning to do for the next two years is attack Biden. Because somehow that'll lower inflation and crime. 🤷‍♂️  The WH is already hiring lawyers in preparation that's how little of a secret it is.
context: Those midterms were not bruising enough. >
  
  No they weren't, many were razor-thin margins. It's a damn good thing that the GOP is a hair better than the Dems at shooting themselves in the foot. >
  
  The thing about that is, by several measures, the republicans should’ve swept congress up. Between the gerrymandering, ownership of many crucial roles in state governments, and the midterm schlacking every dem pres seems to receive after their first two years, the fact that they didn’t even fully take congress, even if by razor thin margins, is a disaster for them. >
  
  Ya if it's even close to the same environment in 2024 they are fucked and they know it because a new voting rights act will destroy all their gerrymandering. >
  
  Wouldn't the House (and Senate, but the House'll be held by the GOP) need to pass a new voting rights act? Or did they pass one and I missed it? >
  
  As I recall, the House tried by passing it and it died in the Senate. >
  
  The House will deliberately pass bills knowing the Senate won't pass them. Too many corporate shills in Congress. If it weren't for Biden getting on their asses all the time they wouldn't have passed ANYTHING.
