In Which We Discuss:

1. There’s been elections. Lots of elections. We’ll tell you about them.

2. Republicans continue to flee the scene of the crime. 

3. Everytime a new government funding bill passes, a new GOP speaker gets their wings.

4. Democrats try to make a splashy announcement, seem unaware that everybody else denounced Netanyahu twenty years ago.

5. Like the collection of old foggety people that it is, Congress sets its sights on banning fun next.

6. The return of George Santos, queen of the return.
