WASHINGTON—Stressing that the proceedings violated clear principles handed down by the Founding Fathers, GOP senators took to the chamber floor in the lead-up to former President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial to argue that it is unconstitutional to be forced to work on a Tuesday. “We would urge our esteemed colleagues to recall that the Bill of Rights was specifically formulated to guarantee our right to kick back and relax on a Tuesday,” said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, urging the immediate postponement of the trial until a date in which all participants had availed themselves of their legally protected rights to get their “batteries recharged” through a little quality rest and relaxation. “The Framers’ intent is clear: After a tough Monday, it’s important that Americans can decompress, sleep in, and take a nice little siesta before the midweek slump, The fact that Democrats are choosing to politicize this and drag us in on a beautiful Tuesday is frankly unconscionable.” McConnell went on to ask for an adjournment of the trial after contending that many Democrats had defied crucial precedents forbidding them from speaking to him before he had his coffee.\n

This.......is harsh ! They don’t work the other 6 days. How dare you expect something in return for your taxes. pffht

LMAOO

The pale man.

Same tho.

God Bless America! Work is for suckers and Russians.

Preach

Local strip club probably bringing back 'Titty Tuesday' drink specials. Of course they need the day off.

'It must be a holiday somewhere,' said McConnell.

But GQP Senators have generously agreed to move the impeachment hearings to Wednesday, Feb. 31st.

Government trying to turn socilist...

Readers need to retroactively Impeach The Onion after this lame story.

Tuesdays are for voting

jjjinvesting Waiting for the punch line.

its unconstitutional to be a human being so yes

And for once I agree with them.

This makes no sense. We have Monday then take another day off and then we have the rest of the week? SMH my head

RepublicansAreTheProblem they are Craven Gutless Hypocrites

He really does look like that thing from Pan's Labyrinth.

the republicans need to be forced to work period.

Frog

That man’s forehead has no wrinkles. Mf ain’t ever worried about a damn thing his whole life.

First time I've ever agreed with them

Sounds like a case of the Monday’s.

Mitch McConnell

The Framers’ intent is clear: After a tough Monday, it’s important that Americans can decompress, sleep in, and take a nice little siesta before the midweek slump, The fact that Democrats are choosing to politicize this and drag us in on a beautiful Tues is frankly unconscionable

Just feed him some crickets and he’ll be your best friend, until the crickets are gone

Unless it’s Election Day

If you twist the words in the Constitution enough, it could very well be unconstitutional to work on a Tuesday. Since God supposedly guided the forefathers in the writing of the Constitution, God also hates it when his Bible gets twisted to meet man's needs and wants.

Careful. When he's intimidated he inflates his neck sack and shoots blood out of his eyes.

That's going to really mess things up when they try to pass a bill saying ex presidents can only be impeached on Tuesdays.

We all have rights OK

Now they start slow mo everything. Slow mo talking....

Well, 'forcing' anyone to work regardless of the day, would in fact be Unconstitutional.

Being a Republican must be embarrassing

Democratic senators argue that they should get paid not to work at all

I agree with them

Finally we would agree on something

I almost ate that onion lol ... I need some sleep

democrats argue that it is an issue to work on a Wednesday
