Also, her unnamed partner is Ben Collins of the Onion. It's weird how she seems to have thought she could run for Congress without that being of interest.

Can democracy survive an Onion headline excoriating a sitting Congresswoman for leaving her socks lying around on the floor? We shall see, but probably not.

Dating a comedy writer now immediately disqualifies you.

Just in general and from everything.

The Onion is the only real deep state, we all know this

Why is this scrutiny never afforded to much more deliberate and sinister obfuscation? is it because we don’t expect those people to have morals, and so we have to instead undermine people that respond and engage (because they care) and slam them for being, in our own flawed assessments, imperfect?

like fully a third of congress has direct blood relation to corporate dynasty families idk why this would possibly matter
