Pioneer Press, carrying an AP feed:
"As the lawmakers sit in the House chamber listening to Trump’s agenda for the year ahead, the moment is an existential one for the Congress, which has essentially become sidelined by his expansive reach, the Republican president bypassing his slim GOP majority to amass enormous power for himself.
First term, Trump 45, Pelosi tore up the paper she held. Speaker Johnson likely will be more a lackey in sitting w/o display. Will it be raucous? Will MTG shout out?
Will it be dreary and tediously longer than needed? And meandering?

Conservative Dems, when jumping on Trump, do okay. When forecasting who should be Dem candidates, less so.
