During her acceptance speech, Iowa Senator-elect Joni Ernst joked that “It’s a long way from Red Oak to Washington, from the biscuit line at Hardee’s to the United States Senate.” Ernst hadn’t forgotten her days working at the fast food chain, and her shout-out to her former employer didn’t go unappreciated. Hardee’s took out a full-page ad in the Des Moines Register to congratulate Ernst and thank her for reminding us that “your job and your life are what you make of them.”

Speaking of the biscuit line at Hardee’s …
@iamkohan @RichLowry @Hardees @joniernst @DMRegister And them are some great biscuits and gravy too.

@RichLowry @iamkohan @DMRegister @Hardees biscuits are America's most criminally underrated fast food. Glad @joniernst gave 'em a shout out!
