fyi - interesting twitter thread on DT adjournment threats for Congress

Describes that these days, the sessions run to the end of Congress i.e. Jan 3, 2021 (in the old days sessions did NOT run to end of Congress so there might be disagreement). Further replies in the tweet discuss how many votes would be needed to overturn that decision in the Senate & concluded it would be unlikely. Well worth a read.

Edited to give you this information so you can actually see the thread:

add twitter . com to the front of this in order to see the thread:

The tweet's author is a law professor at Univ Texas so no wonder it's so clear!
