WASHINGTON—After a long recess that began in September, both houses of the 118th Congress will return on Nov. 12 for its final session. It’s the first time the legislature will convene after general elections on Nov. 5, in which Republicans gained control of the Senate in the 119th Congress that takes office on Jan. 3, 2025. Below, we list what to expect.
New Senators and Leaders
The balance of power in either house will not change until January, with Democrats retaining their working majority in the Senate through the end of 2024. However, during such a session, Congress is often termed a “lame duck,” since a new electoral mandate is evident. Moreover, the composition of the Senate will change almost immediately, with several new electees joining the body.
These include Sen.-elect and current Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who won a general and special election to the Senate seat held by the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.). The special election, as required by state law, is to serve the remaining months of Feinstein’s term in the 118th Congress, with the temporary appointee to that seat, Sen. Laphonza Butler (D-Calif.), leaving the body accordingly.
Joining the Senate early will give Schiff seniority over all new senators being sworn into office on Jan. 3.
Additionally, Schiff’s other House Democratic colleague elected to the Senate—Sen.-elect and Rep. Andy Kim (D-N.J.)—will also join the body early. Unlike in California, no special election was held for the seat vacated by former Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) upon his felony conviction. The current temporary appointee, Sen. George Helmy (D-N.J.), plans to resign so Gov. Phil Murphy (D-N.J.) can appoint Kim before his regular term begins. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
