Something Really Insane Just Happened In Congress, And You Probably Haven’t Heard A Word About It

My old chum and Upworthy colleague Mansur Gidfar ditched us to go work for some anti-corruption group that apparently is tired of “bribery, graft, and shenanigans” in the government. So they gave him a camera. Now he has a ridiculous power grab to share with you that you may have missed.
