Per NPR:

Congress has rarely resorted to the most extreme punishment at its disposal. The House has expelled only five members in its history — three during the Civil War and two after their convictions on public corruption charges. It would be groundbreaking for the House to kick out Santos before his case in federal court is resolved.

There’s not really an established precedent for booting Congress members out before a conviction. So, while I agree he’s a 10/10 shitbag, I think there’s value of letting due process play out and then kick him to the curb.

Lol, I’m imagining the call the casting director made to Madonna.

“Hey Madonna, you were great, but you weren’t ‘milk blasting outta titties’ great so we’re gonna pass.”

Yeah fuck those guys. Had an awning built over our patio and didn’t even get through the whole summer before one started digging a hole into one of the rafters. Our backyard is now a no-fly zone for those bastards.

Pretty good. Labor day is a paid day off for me. Wife has to work though, but that just means I get to pal around with my son all day.
