Anyone who’s worried about the state of things in America should just take comfort in the words of House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer:
HOYER to House Dems: "Members are advised that absent an emergency, the House is not expected to meet prior to Monday, May 4, 2020. "

They’re from the government and they’re here to help. Eventually. Maybe. If they feel like it. Meh.
Absent an emergency? Dude, where have you been? https://t.co/W3lBL65HU5

Good thing people dying isn’t an emergency to them.

“Emergency” is such a loaded term, you know?
Not for Democrats.
They know that media will dutifully deflect any negative impacts of this to Trump instead of them.
What do they care? https://t.co/4WqaoHyimg

Exactly. They want this thing to go on as long as possible so as to paint Biden, Ron Klain, and co. as knights in shining armor who will make the virus go away

Steny Hoyer is apparently Mr. Kruger.
He’s not too worried about it.
yes, what possible emergency could there be?
every single member of Dem leadership should be removed from office at a *minimum*
