Or more likely his Crush
On the agenda was to talk about Mueller Instigation

I’m going with it wasn’t a discussion where the President said don’t mess with us or else....
Gotta hand it to the GOP—on one hand screaming at Dems in the House to “pass a bill” and “move on” from investigating the Administration’s crimes, and then in one fell swoop demonstrating their utter hypocrisy, blocking an easy disaster-aid bill during one of the worst tornado outbreaks in recent history.
I dare Trump and his cronies to blame this on Pelosi.

Texas Rep. Chip Roy took to the House floor late Friday morning to object when lawmakers tried to approve the legislation using a fast-track tactic, with many members of Congress already gone for the holiday.
“If I do not object, Congress will have passed a bill with $19 billion without being here to vote on it,” Roy said. [Note: Senate already passed it, after negotiating with Dems, and Trump said he’d sign it.]
Railing against the "swamp," Roy objected to speeding the measure through a nearly-empty chamber, complained it wasn't paid for and challenged a decision not to include President Trump's $4.5 billion request for dealing with the migrant crisis on the U.S.-Mexico border. [How stupid do your voters have to be to hear you complain about $19 billion “unpaid for” and then hear you complain it’s missing an additional $5 bil in the next sentence?]
The surprise development comes after the Senate overwhelmingly approved the legislation Thursday afternoon to help several states and Puerto Rico recover from hurricanes, floods and wildfires – this, after Trump himself backed off from his demand that border security money be added.
Senators had passed the measure on an 85-8 vote; eight Republicans opposed it. Trump then said he would sign the measure, tweeting: "The U.S. Senate has just approved a 19 Billion Dollar Disaster Relief Bill, with my total approval. Great!"
