Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) worried over the weekend that “the straw police” might punish him if he defies the understood social custom of using a single drinking straw per meal.

In a tweet posted on Saturday, Nunes seemed downright paranoid that he could have his right to a straw infringed upon.

“At restaurant tonight waitress asks if we want straws,” he wrote. “Says she has to ask now in fear of ‘THE STRAW POLICE’. Welcome to Socialism in California!”
