    117th Congress (2021–2023): Democrats gained control of the Senate (via Georgia runoffs) and held the House, paired with President Biden’s election. The 4-Year Period: This 4-year stretch saw shifting majorities in the Senate, but the Democratic caucus maintained a working majority to control the legislative agenda from 2021-2023, while holding the House from 2019-2023, marking a four-year tenure of overall legislative

      You said they had the house, senate, AND presidency for 4+ years. The house yes, presidency yes, senate no. Nothing becomes law without the senate. Your claim was not accurate.

        Argue with Google. Not me. Biden had the house and senate.

        You sound like AI.

          Do you remember Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema? Remember how they kind of held up everything?

            Why weren’t they censured? Everything plays out EXACTLY like big business wants it. If you dont understand that corporations have nearly ful control of politics then we have nothing to discuss. Here is the summary … both sides bow down to billionaires and corporations.

              Sure rotating villain and all that.
