Man Buys $7.11 Worth of Groceries with War Powers Resolution, Congress Still Can’t Figure Out Lunch Menu

AITA for laughing at Congress? So this random dude in Ohio tried to pay for his Funyuns and Monster Energy with a folded-up copy of the War Powers Resolution he printed from Wikipedia. TL;DR—he argued the cashier was a 'hostile faction' and the munchies were a 'national security threat.' Cashier was unimpressed, cops were called, and now the guy’s getting a 72-hour psych hold while the House debates whether they even have the authority to fund his nachos. Honestly, this is the most productive use of that document since 1973.
