Senator Truck Nuts is back at it!
On Friday night, while most Oklahomans were enjoying a cold beer cruising a dirt road in a pickup truck, Senator Markwayne Mullin was bitterly wandering the halls of the U.S. Capitol.
Apparently called into work late and forced to miss Twin Peaks happy hour with his Bad Boy Mowers buddies, he pulled out his phone and — like a grumpy teenager stuck at a museum with his parents — started filming moody videos for his conservative followers, right-wing bots, and all the journalists forced to document the dumb things he says and does.
In one of the videos, Mullin took viewers on a Capitol stairwell ghost tour, sharing the tale of an 1890 murder where a newspaper reporter shot a former congressman in the face.
It has all the vibes of a Drunk History reenactment — if the story was told by a testosterone-fueled senator hopped up on Brawndo.
Mullin, apparently forgetting that it was the reporter who came out on top, closed his little history lesson by casually “joking” that maybe journalists “would write a lot less false stories… if we could still handle our differences that way.”
