This will be a shutdown, as designed.
I'd actually go further and shut it down January 3, with the demand Biden be ousted. Forget impeachment, because you won't get the 67 conviction votes.

Also, if the Republicans do take back the House & Senate look
for the Democrats to start pressuring Biden to step down
for "health reasons".

Forget impeachment, because you won't get the 67 conviction votes.The only way the government shuts down on January 3 is if there is another Continuing Resolution passed that runs out on that date.

I disagree.
Rescind consent and shut down the government until Trump is restored.
First, as has been explained to you over and over, Congress has no authority to "rescind consent" - at least, not without changing the laws,
which would require Biden's signature, which obviously isn't going to happen. Besides, do you honestly think that even one, much less five, Supreme Court justices would allow it?
Every college outside of "the 32 attached to NFL teams with players drafted out of high school and not allowed to transfer except through the NFL trade process" dropping football except as whatever it is you define as "a club sport" (and if that means "no scholarships," then every NCAA Division III football team is already a "club team") is a done deal compared to this.
Second, "shutting down the government" doesn't shut down Congress, or the Executive branch - if they rescind Biden and Harris before January 3, then Nancy Pelosi is acting President. Otherwise, how could the Congress pass a budget that ends theshutdown if Congress itself is shut down?
Besides, do you honestly think that even one, much less five, Supreme Court justices would allow it?Absolutely. I've got four gimmes in Kavanaugh, Barrett, Alito, and Thomas.
These wouldn't be the Kavanaugh and Barrett that refused to hear any of Trump's elections right after the election, would they? Why would they suddenly decide, "Not only are we changing our mind about the election, but we're declaring Trump the winner"?Besides, do you honestly think that even one, much less five, Supreme Court justices would allow it?Absolutely. I've got four gimmes in Kavanaugh, Barrett, Alito, and Thomas.
