'Everybody’s ready to go home': House Republicans complain that they really need a vacation

After being together working for seven weeks, House Republicans are reportedly desperate to be away from one another.

Republican lawmakers have talked openly about how badly they need a break, and about their priorities for when they return, according to a Politico report from Friday. The report says the representatives are leaving for the break Friday amid tensions between moderate Republicans and those on the far right of the GOP.

"Those tensions have worsened thanks to the House’s marathon springtime session, which has seen lawmakers in Washington every week since early May," the article states. "Rep. Ann Wagner (R-Mo.) captured the mood on Wednesday, getting caught on a hot mic after a colleague checked in on her during a Foreign Affairs Committee hearing: 'Seven straight weeks, this is not healthy,' she said."

Wagner reportedly continued, in jest, adding that:

“I hate Republicans. I hate Democrats. I hate my staff. My staff hates me. Seven weeks is not good... John Boehner would have never put up with this. He thought if we were together for more than four weeks, then you know — I guess that is why we are all doing all this stupid s--t.”

Politico also reported that those in the House were bringing in suitcases, Corona, and even a dog carrier in their urge to leave.

"As the first vote languished for over 20 minutes, some members tried to speed things up themselves. (Wagner jokingly yelled “Shame!” as the minutes ticked by, with colleagues laughing alongside her.) First-term Rep. Nick Langworthy (R-N.Y.) put it more bluntly. When asked on a scale of 1 to 10 how ready members were to return to their districts, he replied: 'Eleven,'" Politico reported. "Rep. Frank Lucas (R-Okla.) said Congress, 'in some ways, is kind of like high school. Every so often, the kids need to get on the bus and go home.'"
