I've seen a lot of references online to a "J. Edgar Boozer" and although I'm not saying anyone in particular deserves that appellation, I do think it would be the perfect name for someone serving as head of the Federal Bureau of Intoxication, if there were such a thing, which I'm not saying there is
With the stonewalling Republicans in the majority, they're not going to push forward. It up to us voters to make sure that Democrats take the lead. Unlike Republicans, they won't cower to Trump and will get the job done.

"Texas Congressman Chip Roy is preparing to introduce legislation he’s calling the “MAMDANI Act,” ...
Chip Roy may possibly be one of the biggest pieces of shit in Congress.
The President of the United States is a liar.
@houserepublicans.bsky.social Hey, #ChipRoy, proud native Manhattanite, lifelong Democrat, and proud @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social voter here. You can gfy. Stripping of U.S. citizenship for political purposes is ILLEGAL, FASCIST, & UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

No more Mr. Nice Guy? When was he ever a nice guy?

I love the sign behind Democratic House Rep. Bobby Scott in the hearing with RFK Jr.
