Republican Representative Lauren Boebert got a lesson on how math works during a House hearing this week when she tried to attack a Social Security administration official. Boebert tried to paint the agency as failing and the employees as lazy, but Social Security executive Oren "Hank" McKnelly immediately put her in her place by not only letting her know that employees' progress is monitored when they work from home, but also by explaining that the backlog at the agency is due to a lack of funding even as claims increase. He called this a "math problem" that Boebert simply couldn't understand. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.
