About this Episode

Fingers is back on The Snark Factor after a couple of chaotic weeks away — including, yes, a house flood — and he’s got thoughts.

This week: a 10-year-old’s electric vehicle essay turns into a national story, Congresswoman Virginia Foxx fires back, and Fingers wonders why adults keep using kids as political props. Then, the Senate gets very concerned about FBI Director Kash Patel’s alleged drinking, because apparently Washington, D.C. has discovered moral standards and would like everyone to pretend that’s normal.

Plus: taxpayer-funded sexual harassment settlements on Capitol Hill, why “taxation is theft” hits a little harder when Congress is paying for its own bad behavior, and a sample of The Snark Factor 3 in 3 — three stories, three minutes, every weekday at FingersMalloy.com.

Fingers also talks Memorial Day weekend, grilling, ribs, brisket, charcoal, and taking time to remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
