Local news just reported that Congress is shutting down because of the media panic for Coronavirus. My question - what is next?

Well, truth be known, we’d be better off without them anyway. Just leave em shutdown.

What's next?

Martial Law wouldn't surprise me given the snowballing of idiocy.

AOC is making the most of the panic. She wants to tack Medicare-for-all and universal income onto any coronavirus bills they pass. If congress is shut down, they can't vote on anything that stupid.

Hell, they're going out for recess either tonight or tomorrow.
I suppose they can call this whatever they want but next week is/was a scheduled week off all along.

Better idea- - - - -get them all together for a "joint session" (I'll even chip in to help buy the weed) and then dump a dose of Corona virus into the air handler for the HVAC system where they're meeting. Then they can all go home and hack up a lung for a few weeks, and with a little luck the dinosaurs like Pelosi, Clyburn, Maxine Waters, Schumer, Feinstein, etc. won't survive to stir the pot after this blows over. Sort of a graveyard version of term limits!
