[malaise]

That backfired with speed

[warrior1]

Speaker Pelosi

2. Ah ha ha ha ha ha

[pandr32]

4. Oh phew!

No way should they have a recess with an emergency going on.

[MerryBlooms]

5. Womp!

[spooky3]

6. These monsters are so stupid and uncaring that they thought

they could get away with this, while also blocking action on the bill the House sent over. If they think they will keep their voters as more and more people get sick, the economy falls into recession, people lose their jobs, AND the stock market continues to tank, ruining everyone's 401ks and plans to retire, well, they are STUPID UNCARING MONSTERS.

7. If they hadn't...

the DOW would tank 5-10% tomorrow, following the huge European drop. Now, maybe just half that.

[Leghorn21]

8. Oh damn!

Great news!!

As my lifer Marine Corps combat veteran father used to say,

“Look alive, people!! LOOK ALIVE!!”

[procon]

10. They're afraid to face their constituents. nt

[LaMouffette]

11. Does this also mean that Trump will not be jetting off to Merde-a-Lago

to squeeze in a few rounds of golf in the midst of this national crisis?

I actually think our fearless leader is a real flight risk. There are reports of wealthy people fleeing to their safe and secluded homes in the Hamptons to wait out the corona virus.

I'm sure Rump is privately planning his escape to one of his properties.

13. I wonder how bad Moscow Mitch's anus twitched when the cattle prod was inserted...

Upon the brief blow back that ensued upon his plan to tell Americans to just deal with it for awhile?

[Dem2]

14. Slimy Republicans tried to shirk their responsibility
