Big (Really Big) Loser
Defeated wingnut Congressman Phil "All You Can Eat" English (Rethug-PA) has closed his offices and is turning away constituent casework, following his defeat on Nov. 4. Ungrateful voters! Keep in mind that he and his staff are on full salary until January, when the new Congress is seated.
According to the WaPo, the congressman is not taking his defeat well, and has even short-circuited the process for interviewing and nominating candidates for the military service academies. So his refusal to work is impacting the futures of young people who want to serve their country.
Maybe if a ham sandwich were attached to each application. . .
