“The president has called me when I was in my car, asleep in the middle of the night on my Longworth Office cot, on the throne, on airplanes, in nightclubs, and even in the throes of passion (yes, I answered),” Mr. Gaetz boasted in his book.

Everyone knows the best way to get young people to read a book is to ban it.

Thanks for asking! It’s been 10 days since my second Pfizer shot, and while I had some nausea last week, that was the extent of my after-effects. I’m older, so maybe that’s why.
