You can’t make this up.
We watched as President Joe Biden slowly disintegrated in office — if he was all there when elected in 2020.
By the end, we knew that his staff (filled with young, socialist-indoctrinated and inexperienced kids) was really running the show. And we all know how that has turned out.
But that was supposedly in full public view (although the media colluded with these staffers to cover it up).
What about the dozens of others we cannot see?
81-year-old Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX), who hasn’t been seen for 6 months, found living in a dementia care facility.
Being a politician shouldn’t be a lifelong career. It should be something one reluctantly does for the betterment of society.
It’s time Congress gets term limits. pic.twitter.com/46jqalSCHT

This Congresswoman has been living in a dementia care facility for months. Has not voted or done her job representing her constituents in even longer.
But all her staff, and she herself, continue to collect their government paychecks.
And you and I pick up the tab.
And then, there’s Nancy Pelosi…
August, 2024. 84 year old Nancy Pelosi, who had just forced Biden to leave the race, is asked why she has decided to run for re-election.
“To keep what’s his name out of the White House” and “for the children.”
At 84 she’s “putting off her enjoyment of other things for a while”… pic.twitter.com/gOgQKlFS2J

And, remember, she just fell and broke her hip. Which had to be replaced. While she was on official business. In Europe.
Oh, yes. There’s also former Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. He’s 82. In the peak of health — except when he isn’t.
⚠️ Mitch McConnell tripped and fell on stage.
The 82 year old has just announced his retirement as the Senate Republican leader.

These aren’t the only should-be-retired men and women in the Congress. Remember Diane Feinstein? She died in office at the age of 90. Her daughter had a Power of Attorney for her as she was unable to manage her own affairs. Yet she was still in the Senate– managing the nation’s affairs.
I have great sympathy for old folks (as I’m getting to be one myself). I had one parent with Alzheimer’s and one who lived into their 90s, but who required my help to manage things. But neither was in the Congress making decisions for the rest of us. We must impose term limits on them so they cannot cling to power to the detriment of the rest of us. Now!
