Impeached 2 is an armchair politician's dream. Play today!

In an unprecedented display of parliamentary acrobatics, the Senate, led by the illustrious and unflappable Senator Thaddeus Flanagan, has managed to perform an acrobatic feat that even Cirque du Soleil would envy. In a move that has left legal scholars scratching their heads in disbelief, the Senate has decided to put political gamesmanship above the sacred principles enshrined in the Constitution, during a heated debate over authorizing a new foreign conflict.

The latest episode of Capitol Hill's reality TV show, which has been airing for the past century and a half, reached a fever pitch when Senator Flanagan, a man whose political compass seems to be guided by the whims of public opinion polls, proposed an amendment that would allow the President, affectionately known as "Commander-in-Tweet," to launch a full-scale military operation without the bothersome constraint of congressional approval.

The Constitution, which is usually treated as a dusty old manuscript in the Senate's lobby, was seemingly forgotten as both Democratic and Republican senators engaged in a fierce war-of-war over the document's relevance. The Democratic Party, known for its staunch defense of the Constitution when it suits them, surprisingly sided with the Republicans in a desperate attempt to outdo each other in a display of who could show more contempt for the very document they claim to hold dear.

The Senate's debate, which has been likened to a game of political hot potato, saw both parties accusing each other of constitutional heresy while simultaneously committing the same offenses. The air was thick with hyperbolic speechifying, legalistic jargon, and thinly veiled political maneuvers, as the senators debated whether it was more important to adhere to the Constitution or to play political football with America's military might.

In a climactic turn of events, the Senate eventually passed a resolution that, while not outright ignoring the Constitution, certainly gave it a good shove and a dismissive wave. The resolution, which passed with a narrow margin, allows the President to initiate military action under the guise of "national security," a term so broad it could potentially apply to an alien invasion, should the need arise.

As the Senate's decision echoes through the hallowed halls of democracy, one cannot help but wonder if the Founding Fathers, who once braved the elements and their own mortal fears to draft a document that would serve as the cornerstone of American governance, are spinning in their graves at the sight of their creation being used as a coaster for political beverages.

In conclusion, the Senate's performance this week has been nothing short of a masterclass in irony and hypocrisy, proving once again that sometimes, the best way to honor the Constitution is to openly and shamelessly ignore it – at least until the cameras are off.
