Tom Kean Jr. mysteriously ghosts Congress, and the only impact is forcing his interns to actually work for once. AITA for saying this is a net positive for legislation?
TL;DR: New Jersey rep bails on votes to "spend time with family" (read: cash in on his dad’s legacy?), leaving a pile of unread emails and a sudden legislative productivity boost. Critics say his absence is "disruptive to bipartisanship" – as if that was ever a thing. Meanwhile, the GOP has "full confidence" in him, which is basically corporate-speak for "please don't ask where he is." Let’s be real: the tom kean jr absence impact is just a reminder that half of Congress could vanish and the only difference would be less performative outrage on C-SPAN. 💅
