I’m not in a very charitable mood with them either, to tell the truth.

Know who else loves a US government shutdown? Vladimir Putin.

I may have misheard--is it true that every committee in the House and Senate in 2025 will be headed by men? Isn't this macho shit getting a little ridiculous?

I wish the US Congress had responded with the unity and speed of the Korean National Assembly following Trump's attempted coup on January 6, 2021.

Premature resignation … that sounds a lot like why he had to pay for sex.
