“Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has signed onto a resolution by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) seeking to change the rules of the Senate to dismiss articles of impeachment if they are not transmitted within 25 days of their approval — in this case, January 12,” Axios reports.

“The constitutionality of such a move is not clear.”

aside from the 2/3 needed or going nuclear,

how’s the senate gonna ‘dismiss’ something that hasn’t left the house?
the senate hasn’t received the articles and has no authority over them

if they could do this, they could do it with any bill the house voted on and then didnt transmit immediately for whatever reason.

this is crazyland
