He looks like an absolute badass

They really chose the worst photo to make him look bad.

Fateh's higher education bill included tuition-free public colleges and universities and tribal colleges for students from families whose income is less than $80,000 a year.[18] It also included an increase to Hunger Free Campus grants,[19]emergency assistance grants.[20]

Fateh was the chief Senate author of a bill to provide minimum wages and worker protections for drivers for rideshare companies such as Uberand Lyft.

OP's post image is probably a still image from a video of him ripping someone a new one in committee.

In the age of HD video, it is remarkably easy to catch a single frame of someone looking ridiculous.
