0:00.0	Donald Trump is panicking as Democrats strike back after the MAGA Republican recess, sending the House and Senate on a vacation for two weeks.
0:11.7	Democrats have returned with a vengeance, and the Midas Touch Network was there on the steps of the Capitol Hill to document it all.
0:20.7	Scott McFarlane, who leads the Midas Touch Network's Washington, D.C. Bureau, along with
