A glimpse at what Repub governance looks like.

Capitol Hill stunner: 2023 led to fewest laws in decades​

The 118th Congress is on track to be one of the most unproductive in modern history, with just a couple dozen laws on the books at the close of 2023, according to data from data analytics firm Quorum.

Why it matters: It's the product of not only divided partisan control of Washington, but infighting within the House Republican majority that has routinely ground legislative business to a halt.

• That includes the three-week period this fall in which Congress was paralyzed Republican's inability to find a replacement for ousted Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.)

I find nothing stunning at all about ineffectual Repub governance. It's a consequence of a witch's brew of MAGAists, a few leftover centrists who have yet to be purged, and anarchists known as the Freedom Caucus.

We all should have seen this coming when the fractured POT caucus took 15 tries to elect the most toothless Speaker in history. A guy who's grasp on the gavel was always tenuous at best.

In light of..........

Zoom in: When you dig into the laws passed by this Congress, the picture becomes even more bleak.

• The vast majority were uncontroversial bills that passed either by unanimous consent or with minimal opposition, including multiple measures to rename Veterans Affairs clinics and another to mint a coin commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Marine Corps.

.......one could make the argument they've virtually done nothing at all aside from making a spectacle of themselves.

That government which governs least governs best.

Okay, what bills did the 118th congress pass then.

What Bills did the "do nothing" senate pass?

RELEASE: REP. HILL STATEMENT ON HOUSE PASSAGE OF CONTINUING RESOLUTION

“For weeks, I have worked tirelessly with my Republican colleagues in the House to pass our 2024 spending bills. We have passed over 70% of all funding, whereas the Senate has passed zero.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

No, you just make carbon copy lefty troll arguments.

Right, as opposed to you just making shit up and calling it a day. I never believe a word you spew, fat boy.

It's only 21 bills kaz, should be easy to post.

How many US post offices did they rename?

You have a side whether you like it or not, and you throw in with the SJW twits, the Hamas lovers, and the authoritarian Dems.

I agree. The totalitarian Dems / Socialists have gone full Stalin. It’s being made worse by a completely befuddled, ill-tempered, incompetent president and furthered by race-obsessed, gender- confused, self-loathing ideologues in the Dem party.

I’d propose that the descent of the Democrat party, the increasingly angry, self-hating Leninist / Marxist Dem party, largely began with the Obama administration. Obama was a race hustler and Sloppy Joe is even worse.

The CR was for 45-days. The senate needs to get busy or the government shuts down.

So...not passed.

The most important job the House has is to pass the appropriations Bills that comprise the 2024 Federal Budget.
The House passed 70% of their Bills with the remaining Bills to pass in January.
The US Senate PASSED ZERO.

Focus on the important things, like the Impeachment Inquiry and the Budget.

None passed by the Senate.

Actually, they say that in the other Somalia sometimes called New York.

A man accused of stabbing two teenagers at New York City's Grand Central Terminal on Christmas Day was freed by a judge just weeks prior.

I hope the Biden DOJ is ramping up their investigations of white nationalists.

So, just a very simple short basic list that doesn't account for how much they're paid.

 

[Zincwarrior]

None passed by the Senate.

If the House doesn't pass something that can pass the Senate, then its irrelevant.
