    McConnell cancels much of the Senate's August recess. First week in August still expected to be recess. McConnell cites Dems "historic obstruction" for move, though the Senate has rarely worked a Friday this year, comes in on Monday evenings and takes a recess every few weeks

        McConnell’s move will keep vulnerable Dems in tough races back in Washington; Heller the only truly vulnerable R will be robbed of campaign time, but far more endangered Dems will impacted

        Still wondering about McConnell's blockade of Garland's nomination. Seems like he knew Russian collusion was going to put Trump in the cat bird seat.

        It's about preventing Democratic incumbents from campaigning.

        I saw a prediction a few weeks ago about this. Someone's Magic 8 ball was right on the money. It's about campaigning time.

        It's not that he doesn't care about having a functioning republic, it's that he is actively opposed to having one. Trump would not have been possible without McConnell.

        There is a lot wrong when we cannot have honest election periods. Let the people have a fair shot at voting for who they want. Don't screw with recesses just for the sake of elections, don't gerrymander, don't help the Russians. @GOP you need to let people vote honestly.

        So it's "obstruction" if you have a different way of thinking? I guess the GOP OBSTRUCTED their way through Obama's presidency because they rejected every single thing he tried to do including Merrick Garland

        This is Nazi creed: Accuse the enemy of that which you are guilty. Certainly true in McConnell's case. This is the GOP way.

        McConnell is lying again as usual. The Democrats are not committing "historic obstruction," but rather they are mirroring the actions of Republicans throughout the Obama Presidency! They love to dish it out, but can't take it!

        If Obama had done one tenth of what DJT has, the GOP would have had him impeached already.
