It seems to me that the GOP’s only position since Obama was elected was to oppose any bill the Dems liked regardless of the consequences.

Will the House hold the Mayorkas impeachment to delay it to closer to the election while claiming the Senate is not acting on it, like they have done on several other DOA bills they passed? Thanks Jamie for keeping tract of their trick.
