Just take selfies and post on social media with your smartphones. It’s what you do anyway. It’s not like you do actual work.

I have to think that even the libs are going to get tired of her yakking and complaining all the time. Someone needs to tell her to STFU. On the other hand, she probably helps our side a bit.

“Still don’t have a laptop”

You’ve been on the job for less than two weeks. Welcome to the government, buttercup.

As if most of them knew how to use a laptop anyway.

A lot of people I issue laptops to are doing well to turn them on and sign in with really easy passwords.

I listened to this MSNBC interview...well a few parts...

When she mentioned the lack of laptops I thought “Doesn’t she know that there was a time there were no laptops ???

Doesn’t her staff have pen and paper ???

Heres another thought...if the staff needs laptops what happened to the laptops the staff of her predecessor used weren’t they government property and should have been left there ???

Department of the Treasury
Department of Agriculture
Homeland Security Department
Department of the Interior
Department of State
Department of Housing and Urban Development

Nowhere on that list is the House of Representatives IT Department.

Have you looked in the Capital phone booths? I've heard that laptops have been found there in the past...

"I can’t even get laptops,” she said"

You might want to contact Imran Awan, and his brothers to get a discount deal on old Congressional office supplies.
