Enjoy the sunlight.
We can’t have another Blurred Lines fiasco, people. It’s already past the fourth of July and we don’t have a unifying anthem for the few warm days we will experience this year.

The House GOP is no different. Fortunately for us, prior to their August recess the House GOP leadership has provided all of its members with an exceptionally detailed guide on what to tell their constituents when asked pesky questions. Continue reading
