I feel like if we have a minimum age of 35 for a President, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to have a maximum age of 70, which is double the minimum age.

I really think that anyone who is eligible to retire and draw Social Security should be aged out of public office. I wish that older people in government would retire and go enjoy their lives.

The Boomers got that opportunity from the generations before them. (Bill Clinton took office when he was 46. That was 32 years ago.) They have held on to power for far longer than is reasonable. Gen X never really expected to make a difference, but it would have been nice to at least have had the opportunity to try.

That’s a procedural rule I wasn’t aware of. Thanks for the clarification.

I don’t understand why literally every Democrat in the Senate didn’t line up to filibuster this bill. Booker’s performative filibuster was toothless. This could actually have done something to change public policy.

My representative, who is generally a pretty progressive guy, is on this list. A local journalist asked about his vote, and the statement from his office was that the congressman is waiting for a classified briefing on the Iran strikes to help determine whether the president broke the law.

I know that we live in a world where we expect not only a 24-hour news cycle, but 24-hour resolutions to all issues. Having a solid argument and proper evidence for impeachment is the sort of thing that moves more slowly than we would like.

Isn’t the manosphere pretty transphobic? I would assume they have pretty much divorced all Matrix concepts from the Wachowskis by now.
