An Absurdist Farce

There are two kinds of people, those who fix the problem and those who fix the blame. Republicans in the House of Representatives had a chance to pass legislation that would address the crisis at the southern border. They declined and instead opted to let the problem fester while wasting time impeaching the Secretary of Homeland Security, a cynical political stunt that passed by a one-vote margin. The Secretary was instrumental in authoring the proposed legislation, making it difficult to argue that he had neglected his responsibilities. I trust that the Senate will swiftly relegate this absurdist farce to the outhouse of history.
