When I read that Menendez resigned today, as of 8/20, I decided to do some research. This is what I found.
I counted all the Senators at https://www.senate.gov/senators and found that the Dems have 47 Senators. Rep have 49 Senators and Independents have 4.
So my question is this...If we have more than the Dems why is Schumer the majority leader?
The answer in my conspiracy mind is that the Dems don't give two hoots about the law and the rules and know that until they are out of office they can do whatever they want to do.
But, I may be wrong. There be something I don't know about the calculations for Senate Majority Leader.
All four independents (Manchin, Sinema, Sanders, King) caucus with the dems, giving dems a 51-49 majority
Your general knowledge should answer the question for you. The democrats are the party of lawlessness.
Fixed it for you.
D party is party of communism. The ENTIRE GOAL of communism is population reduction, despite seducing useful idiots into thinking they'll ever get social justice, equality or anything else before they're lined up and shot.
Not to mention satanic ritual abuse, cannibalism and evil... although that's uniparty.
I believe at least Tulsi Gabbard switched out from the democrat party.
Tulsi Gabbard is no longer in Congress
OP was asking specifically about the Senate - Tulsi Gabbard was in the House
Ahh my mistake
V .P. Harris is the tiebreaker in the Senate. So there is a tie right now.
If Biden dies, then There will be no VP until Congress votes to approve. That will be 🎇🎆
It does not matter; NJ Governor Murphy is a Democrat and will appoint a Democrat as interim Senator until the next Senate election.
Thank you all so much. I forgot about the caucus issue. What a shame. I can hardly wait for what I hope is a takeover of the Senate and a HUGE House reclamation come November. Thanks again. You are all so wonderful!🥰
