Early in his career, William Randolph Hearst famously joked that if his papers kept losing $1 million a year, he'd lose all his money in 60 years. If the Post continues to lose $100 million a year, it will take Jeff Bezos 2000 years to lose his money.

Cong. Baumgartner claims to not really understand what the issues are before the committee and he didn't know who Jack Smith is?
It's because he's virtuous and doesn't have cable TV, and he watches Netflix and Reads Books™.
Apparently not critical national news
Yeah, he's a serious guy
