On Wednesday, while the House Oversight and Accountability Committee discussed H.R.2, the House GOP's Secure the Border Act, Freshman Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) revealed himself to be a complete moron.

While several Democrats attacked the bill, Frost decided to perform a dramatic diatribe which included a mock bill to remove the Statue of Liberty.

"My colleagues from the other side of the aisle, let’s be honest with immigrants who deserve better than what you’re offering them. Don’t welcome immigrants if you plan to reject them. If you keep pushing your bigoted H.R. 2 bill, then also pass this bill. I’ve taken the liberty of drafting it for you," Frost said, holding up the draft.

"It removes the Statue of Liberty, our largest symbol that tells people to come here," he continued - apparently unaware that there is a legal immigration process currently being subverted by the those H.R. 2 is aimed at stopping.

Faster than you can say I did not have relations with that investigation, the Clinton deposition story has kept blossoming into a beautiful but stinky flower. Early this morning, Politico reported, “As Republicans again target the Clintons, Democrats just want to turn the page.” Get thee under the bus.

Politico framed its story as Democrats wanting to turn the page — which is journalist-speak for “oh please make it stop.” They can see the subpoenas on the wall. But just relax. This is only going to hurt for a very long time.

“A youthful vanguard of progressive office-holders unlikely to even recall the Clinton presidency,” Politico reported, “have largely opted against defending the once formidable pair.” Representative Maxwell Frost, (D-Fla.), 28, one of the Democrats who voted to hold the Clintons in contempt, explained, “We want to be more aggressive and find the truth, and it’s less about allegiances to individuals, and more about what’s best for our party and what’s best for this country.” ...

Politico’s story isn’t about Republicans attacking the Clintons. This is Democrats, feeding the Clintons to the Epstein wolves and hoping the wolves are full by the time they get to anyone else.

For decades, any mention of Bill Clinton’s frequent-flyer miles on the Lolita Express was dismissed as “conspiracy theory” by the same people now voting to hold him in contempt. These Democrats spent more energy defending Clinton’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein than Epstein’s lawyers did. Now they’re fleeing for the exits so fast they’re leaving skid marks on the Capitol floor. The only thing Democrats want to “turn the page” on faster is their own voter registration records.

For readers who, like Rep. Maxwell, are too young to have suffered through the Clinton years, here’s a small sample of scandals the duo has survived, limited to only those involving the presidential trouser snake. Democrats defended Clinton through:

Gennifer Flowers (1992) — “just a bimbo eruption!”
Paula Jones (1994) — “trailer park harassment.”
Monica Lewinsky (1998) — “a vast right-wing conspiracy!”
Impeachment (1998-99) — “partisan witch hunt!”
Epstein flight logs (2019) — “out of context.”
… Epstein files (2026) — turn the page!
