TRUMP: "I can't imagine it... What have I done? I've had the best two years in the history of the presidency."
Two impeachments already. Would House Dems really try a third?

"Do you think they'll impeach you again?"

A gavel in and out is not a workday. Senate Daily Press recorded no business at the Nov. 5 pro forma session, and the chamber returns Monday at 3 p.m. Rick Scott wants senators working every day until January. Should Thune replace those short sessions with real floor days?
Proof of citizenship isn't a press release β it's a House-passed bill. S.1383, the SAVE America Act, cleared the House 218-213 on Feb. 11. When the Senate returns Nov. 9, will Thune force a cloture vote before January?
Taxpayers shouldn't fund terrorists. Burchett's H.R.260, the No Tax Dollars for Terrorists Act, has sat on the Senate calendar as Calendar No. 330 since Feb. 10. Will Thune put it on the floor before January 3?
Chip Roy wants a reconciliation package in 8 weeks. The House already passed H.Con.Res.113 on July 22, 216-214, with reconciliation instructions. The Senate still hasn't agreed to a FY2027 budget. Will Thune put it on the floor?
DeSantis: "Just think what this means having 56 senators... no Supreme Court justice... unless something happens in the next six weeks."
Six weeks left. How many judges can Thune confirm?

Schumer: "Against all odds, Democrats have won the Senate, and we have five words for the American people: Relief is on the way."
Relief from what, Senator? Name the first bill.
π₯ @cspan
.@SenSchumer: "Oh, what a night! Against all odds, Democrats have won the Senate, and we have five words for the American people, relief is on the way."
Lame duck, not dead duck. Under the 20th Amendment, this Senate's Republican majority serves until noon on Jan. 3, 2027, and every judge it confirms before then gets a lifetime seat. Should Thune keep the Senate in session through December to confirm judges?
Americans vote today, and the Senate still hasn't voted on proof of citizenship to register. Rep. Chip Roy's (R-TX) SAVE Act, H.R.22, passed the House 220-208 on Apr 10, 2025, with every voting Republican and 4 Democrats. Should Thune put it on the floor?
Clocks fell back again Sunday, and the Senate let it happen. The House passed Rep. Vern Buchanan's (R-FL) Sunshine Protection Act, H.R.139, 308-117 on Jul 14, with 193 Republicans voting yes. It still awaits a Senate vote. Should Thune put it on the floor?
Citizens should decide House seats. Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) and 44 House Republicans asked Commerce Sec. Lutnick on Oct 30 to count only U.S. citizens, green card holders excluded, when the 2030 Census apportions seats. Comments on the Census rule close Nov 2. Agree or disagree?
π BILL HISTORY β Washington, D.C. Admission Act (H.R.51, 117th Congress)
π³οΈ Passed the House 216-208 on Apr 22, 2021 (Roll Call 132). Democrats 216-0, Republicans 0-208.
π Last action: received in the Senate. It never became law.
β Should a new state ever be admitted on a party-line vote?

π BILL β Sunshine Protection Act (S.29)
π€ Sponsor: Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL)
π‘ What this means: Daylight saving time becomes the year-round national standard, ending the twice-a-year clock change.
π Status: In Senate Commerce since Jan 7, 2025. On Oct 28, 2025, Scott asked to pass it by unanimous consent; Sen. Cotton objected.
β° Clocks still fall back this Sunday, Nov 1.
β Should the Senate give it a recorded vote?

ποΈ ON THE AGENDA β Chinese ownership of U.S. companies
π Sen. Rick Scott says Communist China's stakes in U.S. firms are "a national security issue that Congress must address when we get back in November."
π‘ Smithfield Foods, America's largest pork processor, has been Chinese-owned since 2013.
β Should Congress tighten foreign-ownership review when it returns Nov 9?
π³οΈ BILL WATCH β SAVE America Act
π Passed the House 218-213 on Feb 11 (Roll Call 69). Republicans 217-0; one Democrat, Rep. Cuellar, voted yes.
π It would require proof of citizenship to register and photo ID to vote. Lead sponsor: Rep. Chip Roy.
π‘ In the Senate it needs 60 votes to clear a filibuster.
β Should the Senate force a recorded vote before the lame duck?

Read the bill, not the graphic. Rep. Jayapal's Medicare for All Act, H.R.3069, has 118 cosponsors. Sec. 107 makes it unlawful for insurers to sell, or employers to provide, coverage that duplicates its benefits. Keep your work plan, or trade it in?
TRUMP: "...no tax on tips, no tax on overtime..."
Zero Democrats voted for it. Would they repeal it?
π₯ @RapidResponse47
.@POTUS: With our Republican Congress, I signed the Working Families Tax Cut Act, delivering the largest tax cuts in American historyβincluding No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, and No Tax on Social Security for our great seniors.
TRUMP: "All they do is... talk about impeaching everybody."
Impeachment needs high crimes, not a policy grudge. Which one?
π₯ @RapidResponse47
.@POTUS on Democrats trying to impeach Pete Hegseth: "All they do is they talk about impeaching everybody. Honestly, if we wanted to play that game, we could play it just as well... He's a great warrior. I think he's the best at his job in many, many years."
Same law for members as for everyone else. 175 House Democrats signed Rep. Jayapal's Oct 26 letter telling AG Blanche and DHS Sec. Mullin to take no further action that could affect the election. DOJ calls the Omar case an ongoing criminal probe. Should an election pause it?
TRUMP: "Can you imagine if a Republican stole, as an example, the money that Tim Walz stole from Minnesota?"
Feeding Our Future took $240M+ federal meal money. Who pays?
π₯ @RapidResponse47
.@POTUS: "Can you imagine if a Republican stole, as an example, the money that Tim Walz stole from Minnesota? Billions and billions of dollars... They stole billions and billions of dollars β many of them came from the lovely country of Somalia." π―
