“I’ve been lucky to serve the American people & stir up some good trouble along the way. That’s not changing anytime soon.”

“Good trouble”? Ya Think? Umm, some soothing thoughts for you tonight.

“I was scared and fearing for my life
I was shaking like a leaf on a tree
‘Cause he was lean, mean
Big and bad, Lord
Pointin’ that D.O.G.E. at me!”

Wench thinks her job as head of our elections is to “stir up some good trouble.”

“I’ve been lucky to serve the American people & stir up some good trouble along the way. That’s not changing anytime soon.”

Drag the miserable (insert c-word) out ASAP.

It ain’t over for her until D.O.G.E. says it is.

“Hello, Ms. Weintraub? Yes, this is the special investigative unit of D.O.G.E. Some discrepancies have been uncovered and we’d like to have you statement on this matter. Ma’am, this is a courtesy call to allow you sufficient time to retain counsel. Regards”
