TMZ Invades Capitol Hill To Treat Politicians Like Disgraced Boyband Members

TMZ just launched a dedicated reporting team for Capitol Hill, and you can practically hear the collective sound of every D.C. staffer scrubbing their Instagram. Honestly, politicians have been performing for the cameras for decades; they’re just significantly worse at it than professional influencers. TMZ isn't going to ask about policy; they’re going to ask who was crying in the Uber home from the gala, and D.C. has never had to answer for that kind of energy. I’ve seen better scripted 'emotional' moments in a gym locker room than what these senators pull in front of a podium, but now they’re about to get caught by people who actually know how to spot a PR lie from three blocks away. D.C. is officially the set of the worst-rated reality show on earth, and they aren't ready for the close-up.
