    This is going to take forever if 5 states are objected. 
    Two hours to debate each one.  Christ
    do they debate them all separately? i thought they took all objections and debated them as a whole. 
    Yea each state.  So we are looking at ten hours of debate.  Awesome.

    i was just about to say this. i don't feel sorry for anyone who makes nearly 200 grand a year to do basically nothing who actually has to work for a day or two.

    I'd argue it's been the Republicans' logical evolution in their approach to basically everything over the last ~50 years..
    I should have said 40... many point to Reagan as being the turning point. 

    I'm no political expert, feel free to correct. 
    I've always saw the 94 congress as the turning point. 

    Nixon, southern strategy. tge turning began there. Newt shut the door on governance and it became exclusively about powrt and upward wealth distribution
    The southern strategy was to convert the solid south to the GOP.  Using race as a wedge wasn't new.  Nor was the South voting as a block.  In 94, the politics of personal destruction and eliminating compromise took root. I blame Newt and Rush.

    without it, does newt eventually get sent to congress? as I said, the turn BEGAN there. Newt shut the door.
    Yeah maybe as a democrat.

    What's up with AZ?
    They have an objection to the certification of electors by a rep and a senator so they are required to recess and discuss before returning. All show.
    Ah, thanks.

    And the senator isn't even from fucking Arizona (Cruz).

    is it automatic he becomes majority leader though? i googled it yesterday and when it happened in 2001 the two parties came to a "power sharing agreement". or is harris also a tie breaker vote in the election of the senate leader?

    But Mitch also has to be elected as minority leader.  There's no guarantee he keeps his post.  

    This is such a big deal for Biden's cabinet, judges, committee investigations, etc.  Even if Democrats defect on hard left policies, having the chairs is huge.
