This is a fucking nothing burger, and you all bought it. Boebert suggested Gaetz should lead an investigation. That's it. End of story. She has very little power, he has no power, nothing will ever happen here.
No one, in or out of Congress, takes either of these two people seriously. Except of course lemmy. Lemmy thinks these are serious human beings with, uh, some kind of influence.
That's the joke.
Hmm, doesn't sound like a joke, since she doubled-down after the suggestion. And certainly not crazier than other shit she's said...
Meh. I got it, sorta. Comments in here say otherwise.
