"What if Kim Jong-un snuck nukes into the U.S. ... in weeeed?"

No, that's not a question posed by a dude outside a Hardee's. It was a scenario imagined by a member of Congress.

During a briefing Wednesday, Brad Sherman raised some concerns about North Korea with Vice President Mike Pence. Later, he tweeted out what was said, and while he made a few good points, the internet only remembers one of them.

I raised two issues: No. Korea could smuggle nuke into U.S. rather than use ICBM. Could smuggle inside a bale of marijuana....(1/2) — Rep. Brad Sherman (@BradSherman) April 27, 2017

...and might sell nukes to Iran, which has billions of hard currency. Waiting for answers...(2/2) — Rep. Brad Sherman (@BradSherman) April 27, 2017

Yep. He suggested North Korea could smuggle nuclear weapons into the United States in "a bale of marijuana." The logic of this strategy evaded Twitter.

@BradSherman I always hide my VERY illegal things inside my ALSO illegal things. "Got a bazooka?" "yes but I put it inside a box named "COCAINE." https://t.co/Qb334jNdun — Kevin (@a_more_on) April 27, 2017

"excuse me sir, do you have a nuclear weapon in your truck?"

@BradSherman Customs officer: "Looks good to me, just a giant block of weed postmarked from Pyongyang. Let it through. — Ben Hooper (@BenHooperWrites) April 28, 2017

"quick, i need to hide this nuke inside something"

"how about this marijuana"

Later, the Democratic congressman tried to clarify his previous comments.

I don’t believe that NK is likely to send a bomb in weed. People sneak things into the U.S. every day. Can’t rely solely on missile defense. — Rep. Brad Sherman (@BradSherman) April 28, 2017

Don't worry Brad, your constituents live in California. They're probably digging your far-out scenario.
