Our Very Serious Republican Leadership

Following up on the brilliance of states passing anti-Sharia laws, Congressional Republicans has decided to respond to farcical threats as well. A Republican talking point this year has been that the Environmental Protection Agency wants to regulate dust levels in the wind, arguing this proposal shows what a ridiculous agency the EPA is and that it should be eliminated.

Of course, no such regulation was ever proposed. Republicans created it out of thin air.

But that doesn’t mean Congress isn’t going to vote on a bill to ban the EPA from implementing such a rule!
