It may not last forever, but the scandal-plagued congressman is helpfully distracting attention from the House’s bona fide extremists and their weird ideas.

One client pleaded guilty and resigned from Congress. Another lied about his business past and climbing Mount Everest. But Chris Grant makes no apology for advising them.

The story of a pathological liar who conned his way to Congress has provided some high comedy. But you won’t like it when the laughter stops.

A combination of inaction and inattention allowed the newly elected Republican lawmaker to win office despite having apparently fabricated wide swaths of his biography.

It should alarm Democrats that these midterm contenders delivered big wins for the GOP, all without moderating their MAGA identity.
