Barney Frank kicks Patrick McHenry around the House floor

Crooks and Liars

Barney came down on McHenry for breaking the rules and trying to implement an amendment. It's a new dawn in the House and the Republicans will not like it all that much…

The GOP could dish it out over the past 6 years but they don't like being on the receiving end. Go Barney.

American Samoa is a US territory where most US labor laws are exempt. Companies can produce goods that carry a Made in the US label while its workers toil in third-world conditions. American Samoa is considered a Democratic protectorate while the Northern Mariana Islands is considered a Republican protectorate. American Samoa was exemped from the federal mininum wage bill - N. Mariana was not. Interesting.
