President Biden Called A Fox News Reporter "A Stupid Son Of A #####"
"Nobody has fact-checked him yet and said it's not true," Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy said minutes later.
Ahh, a glimmer of humor in a humorless world.

we need an old cap
If you can draw social security, you don't need to be president (except then politicians will try to drop the age of SS so they can run)

glorified HOA, maybe go so far as to set up fake virtual meetings with world leaders so they don't realize they're out of the loop.

behind.
Except the actual politicians, good luck getting them to pass something that actually limits them, much like stricter regulations on stock trading for politicians that have insider information.

I cannot understand. She sways further than the trees in both directions. Seems like everyone could get on board. Woman or color, vet, hot, says dumb right wing stuff, says dumb left wing stuff. Seems like a hands down winner

I don't think it's ever happening again. The extremists in both parties, who are all fucknuts crazy, seem to have a firm grasp on their respective parties. No sane candidates have a chance.....

If they stopped voting for the craziest mother ###### in the primaries because they think he/she will battle the crazy mother ###### from the other party better than the sane moderates who are running.

Or government in general

Don't get me wrong, I understand it takes time to build a career or reputation in order to get to this level of government, but this graph is a little sad.
Source: https://fiscalnote.com/blog/how-old-is-the-117th-congress
But then I see the data in the Congressional Research Service profile of the 117th Congress (LINK) which says that the average length of service for Representatives at the beginning of the 117th Congress was 8.9 years (4.5 House terms); for Senators, 11.0 years (1.8 Senate terms). To me, that doesn't look horrible (and makes one wonder if term limits don't just ... work themselves out).
But what we need to eliminate are the guys like Patrick Leahy from Vermont. He's the fifth oldest Senator at 80 years old. And has been in the Senate since 1975. NINETEEN-FRICKIN'-SEVENTY-FIVE. He's been a Senator longer than I've been alive.
And so the Democrats don't think I'm targeting Leahy just because of that. I point to Don Young, the sole Representative from Alaska. He is the oldest member of Congress at 88 years old and has been in office since 1973. Yes. Longer than Leahy. That, too, is inexplicable and, to me, unacceptable.
These guys are all part of the machine and the machine is the problem.

Hopefully nobody storms the Capitol trying to kill peeps and wiping shyatt all over the walls. You were kind of quiet then? You are just a subtle d----bag. Speak up when the time is right.
