      In fairness, we would all do it this way. Would you stop a week short? Fuck no, I worked for that.

      I don’t like her and I don’t like nearly everything she’s done, but this is the most honest way people in congress make their money. I’d be more angry about most of the other ways.

        She’s also worth 21 million dollars now, when she entered congress she was worth less than half a million. Her stock trading game has rivaled Nancy Pelosi’s since she entered office. This should be the bigger scandal. It’s not because it bipartisan.

        Honestly, —assuming there’s no fuckery here, which in fairness is a bold assumption— I kind of respect the resignation. She fucked us, got her bag, and fucked off. That’s far better than her becoming a fixture of Washington for the next 50 years.
