Clay Higgins admitted to it in his speech Tuesday.

ETA didn’t know there were others from Louisiana doing the same.

That’s not why she can’t afford to live in dc right now. I never said she was brilliant on the mic. But by this time next year, she will have lived in Astoria Queens and Capitol Hill on her own dime, which is more than most of her critics on this board could ever pull off.
Well that's painfully obvious considering no one on this board is a member of the House and required to have a place in DC.

Setting the bar super low for "life accomplishment" goals eh?

No wonder she's as hero to the left. It's like a race to the bottom.

What the hell are you talking about?

I’m saying this as a guy who actually has done it and who knows that most of this board can’t.

Wait, having to pay rent and use money for stuff is real? Isn't that just some capitalist invention?
Ask your socialist buddies to let you sleep on their couch.

Couldn’t she just live in her office once one is assigned to her?

I have read about some stingy Republicans doing that because you don’t need to “live” in Washington you only need to be there part time when Congress is in session.

I think if I were a newly elected Congressman and couldn’t afford rent/didn’t have the credit to get an apartment, I’d keep that shite to myself. It’s nobody else’s business.

But then, I wouldn’t be able to use my predicament to rail against the evils of capitalism. So there is that.
