Idk I thought it was funny! And nicely summarized the tenor of the oversight hearing, which was much hyped by some on this sub.

That said—I’ll stop if you do? Deal?

I will never understand the obsession some of y'all have with congresscritters. The vast bulk of them are eight kinds of moron, in both parties; the GOP usually has an edge on crazy but there's lots to choose from. Then again bread and circuses.

I’ve posted a single video of a prominent member of the house delegation that is exerting direct control over our ability to govern ourselves. I think that’s reasonable and far from an obsession.

It's not you as such, it's the litany of posts about that circus.

Congressional staff make up 20-25,000 jobs in DC and their work directly impacts the day to day work of many many more.

Congress also has ultimate control over DC local politics.

Not sure why you would be surprised that people post about these things.

Do they tho? They're a rounding error compared to the executive branch.

Not surprised, just tired of them.
