Andy Biggs Just Wondering Why Congress Won't Investigate Gremlins Inside Dinesh D'Souza's Underpants

Republicans have big plans for next year if and when they take back the House of Representatives. We regret to inform you, however, that those plans are really, really fucking stupid. For instance, there is Arizona GOP Rep. Andy Biggs.

For those of you familiar with the Biggs oeuvre, we could stop right there. You name an issue, this cretin has been on the wrong side of it. From his vote as a state legislator opposing a ban on teenagers texting while driving, to his vote against the second COVID relief package because it "redefined family" by extending sick leave to domestic partners, to his current opposition to military aid for Ukraine, Biggs is fully committed to being wrong about every single thing.

So it should come as no surprise that he's all in on the Big Lie, huddling up with Mark Meadows and the rest of the treason weasels at the White House seeking to ratfuck the Electoral College, and trying to get a pardon when their coup plot went sideways. But it is perhaps a little surprising that one of his first orders of business appears to be arranging a congressional inquiry into Dinesh D'Souza's docu-fantasy 2000 Mules, a film so hilariously mendacious that Newsmax won't even mention it on air.

To say D'Souza's claims have been debunked is like saying it sometimes gets cold in Antarctica. The movie's central thesis is that the 2020 election was "stolen" by "mules" who dropped off multiple fake ballots at drop boxes. As proof they used cell phone location data to prove that some people were near multiple dropboxes, multiple times. Not that they were next to a dropbox, not that they put a single ballot into the dropboxes, much less multiple ballots — just that they were kinda in the vicinity. And since the majority of ballot dropboxes in, oh, say, Arizona are located at churches, schools, and libraries, it makes sense that you might wind up seeing the same people near more than one of them during an election cycle.

So we all had a much needed chuckle dunking on D'Souza's little movie, particularly since that goober added to the hilarity by making a bunch of easily disproven claims about solving cold case murders with his super-reliable geolocation data. Even Bill Barr got in on the fun.
