      Congress got hit by the most powerful lobbing group of all. The daughters of thousands of public servants who couldn’t get a VIP ticket to the Eras Tour.

      No, the Biden admin is just doing a lot of good things like this. Or in this case, at least the current DoJ.

      (Awaiting all the replies about what they’re NOT doing, because nothing is ever allowed to be good here)
