The congresswoman in question is obese. Are you happier now?

The same Congresswoman is against SNAP and did say that SNAP does more harm to poor families than it does good,! Disingenuous. To say the least. From someone who appears never to have missed a meal!


Indeed!

Wait—is that true? They can’t adjourn without a majority either? I have been puzzling over why KM keeps holding votes with no prospect of a change.

Pure democracy in action. Nothing can be done without a majority vote.
