Congress has a serious problem of accessibility for people who don’t come from wealth.
Maxwell Frost: Hi, I’m new here. How do members of congress find housing when they don’t have a lot of money?
DC Establishment Person: Beats me. I don’t think it’s a question that’s ever come up before.

Even Hillary lived in a group house on the hill once.
Probably didn’t have to.

Sir Edmund’s accommodations were more of a “base camp” than a group house.
Oh, wait—you mean that Hillary.

My state rep lived in the same house not long after her stay. He said it was a dump.

Even Republican members of the MI Board of Canvassers questioned what the purpose of these recounts were, since there was no way that they would change the outcome of the election for the proposals in question. Here’s their answer. Cause chaos, next will be to accuse Nessel of trying to cover up…something.

You’d hope that barely winning re-election in a solid red district should put make her think twice on her bullshit going forward, but it won’t…

Interesting only in what it is not. Not a ruby red dream of a fascist white enclave.
Still, it’s significant that the vote came from a racially and ethnically diverse county that is politically mixed, as well as the fifth-most populous in the state and the largest in the nation by area. San Bernardino’s 20,000 square miles (51,800 square kilometers) is comprised of more land than nine states.
Not gonna happen, but still speaks to dissatisfaction with status quo.

That all this is coming out one month after the election is a colossal failure of journalism and opposition research.
Yeah. That’s an especially stark example of how corporate “journalism” on elections during elections has become nothing more than telling us which horse is in the lead, and what it would take for some other horse to take the lead.
I think corporate journalists also fear that doing much of any reporting on a candidate’s shadiness would get them slapped with the “biased partisan” label.

Unless he’s a real-life Gatsby and all that wealth is misbegotten - or worse, fabricated like the rest of his story.
