how silky smooth my back is right now, you d understand. fyi, my waxer started a gofundme to cover her therapy bills. get well soon tatyana. but it s a good day to mark your calendar because we may have found an honest politician. jeff jackson a north carolina democrat and freshman rep i m sorry, fresh person rep, looked into a camera and said something we ve all suspected but couldn t prove. that his colleagues are a bunch of phonies who don t believe a word of their own [bleep]. it was nice knowing you jeff. say hello to hillary before you re jeffrey epsteined. i m still brand new to congress i ve only been there a hundred days and i don t know if i m not supposed to say this out loud but it s true and important and if you don t know this you need to. it s really clear from working there for just a few months that most of the real angry voices in congress are totally faking it. these people who have built their brands around being perpetually outraged, it s an act. la
