Once upon a time, there was a good shepherd who roamed the taiga meadow for the delicious Christmas dinner for all the inhabitants of the forest. If there was any kind of delicacy to be offered, it was rosole, silakka, kinkku, boxes, engraved bones and... Jaha. Joo, tämähän ei ollutkaan joulusatu. Tämähän olikin ostoslista. Ja se on pitkä. No, onneksi kaikki ainekset herkulliseen jouluun saat. S-Marketista. Joulu on ruokaa. S-Market.

Republicans in the House of Representatives did not see this coming. Democrats going on the offense during the congressional hearings where MAGA Republicans were trying to run out the clock on the remaining days of the congressional calendar to not address the issues that actually matter to the American people. So the MAGA Republicans yesterday, for example, were holding hearings on showerheads, and shower pressure and this was their big hearing where they were basically they were trying to like make jokes about it and go oh the trickle trickle trickle water pressure and democrats were like one why are you holding a hearing about this when americans are suffering but two if you want to go there we're going to take over these hearings and we're going to bring it back to a core message of affordability right now

MAGA Republican Congress member Fry talking about shower heads. And he's saying, let it flow.
Let the water flow. I kid you not. This is what the MAGA Republicans were doing. But then let me show you what the Democrats do next. Here, play this clip. At the subcommittee level, I think some of my colleagues on the other side were a little bit bothered by some of the punny jokes that we had in my remarks. So I made sure to add more. There's nothing quite like a shower act in December. Let it flow, let it flow, let it flow. Some of our colleagues may want to freeze debate on this bill, but today we're actually going to talk about common sense. One more clip right here of Congress member Fry, where he goes, your hair and your shampoo shouldn't require a four-year evacuation plan. This is what we need to be focused on.
Here, play this clip. Your hair and your shampoo shouldn't require a four-year evacuation plan. I urge my colleagues to support this straightforward bill. And with that, Mr. Chairman, I yield back. Thank you. We appreciate it. We applaud you showering us with your wisdom. We appreciate it very much. You know, when I'm watching that, I'm thinking like, are you doing a Billy Madison routine? Oh, shampoo is better. No, I like conditioner. What are these MAGA Republicans even talking about right now? There are so many pressing issues. Americans' healthcare getting ripped away from them. The Affordable Care Act subsidies expiring. People living paycheck to paycheck being psychologically tortured in an economy where nothing is affordable.
Housing is impossible to access. I can go on and on and on, but this is what MAGA Republicans are doing. So let me show you what the Democrats do. So then AOC has her turn next to speak. And here's what she says. She goes, you wanna talk about
What unexpected outcome occurred during the GOP hearing?
Water pressure? Let's talk about it. Here, play this clip.
As a person who has installed their own shower heads, who has, you know, encountered this, if you are having a dribbly shower, is this not a water pressure issue in your home? I mean, generally, like, mechanically. I'm trying to engage this in good faith, like, genuinely.
