Democrats are ending this session of Congress as they started it — by advancing partisan priorities and ignoring any issue inconvenient to their political narrative, they want to gaslight Americans into believing there is no crisis on the Southern border. They want to deny the reality of a looming debt crisis, mind-trick people into believing our supply chain issues are fixed, and preemptively thwart any attempt at legitimate Congressional oversight. Rather than find areas of bipartisan consensus, Democrats are instead prioritizing President Biden’s re-election prospects. This isn’t surprising, but it is disappointing.

Joe Biden’s failure to curb inflation, his big-government agenda and his caving to the progressive left were anchors that weighed down Democrats in many competitive districts and Republicans were able to explain this to both their base and to persuadable voters, it wasn’t a 'red wave,' as many hoped for, but Republicans now hold the gavels in the House, which means they can stop more bad economic policies from getting passed and exercise proper oversight over the Biden administration. Winning the House majority is a big deal and it should not be minimized.
