The Congressional Freethought Caucus has just added another two members: Reps. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and Yassamin Ansari (D-AZ).

Nadler has been in the House since 1993, representing a part of New York that includes central Manhattan, and is currently the Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee (the most powerful Democrat in that group).

Ironically, after the 2020 Census and subsequent redistricting, Nadler was forced to run against a fellow incumbent House member to retain his seat and he ended up the winner.

If Nadler is a part of the Caucus, it can’t be anything but a bunch of lying windbags.

It takes an entire caucus for the Democrats to put a thought together.

We used to have a FreeThinkers club but they disbanded when people kept asking them about Islam.

Nadler is the standing RAT nearest his gilded idol. Hippos wobble but they don't kneel down.
