A sitting member of Congress was found in a dementia living care home after not making a public appearance for months, and some online expressed outrage over the incident.

Republican Rep. Kay Granger of Texas was first elected to the U.S. House in 1997 and announced in late 2023 that she was not seeking re-election. She also abruptly stepped down from the powerful House Appropriations Committee and last cast a vote in July.

An investigative reporter with the Dallas Express was unable to find the 81-year-old's whereabouts until he got a tip that the congresswoman had been admitted to a local memory care facility in Fort Worth after she was allegedly found wandering and lost.

Many online reacted with anger over the revelation.

"I've knownKay Granger since she was a school teacher. Whatever you think of her politics, whoever made the decision to hide her condition from her constituents ought to be shoveling out horse stalls tomorrow," responded journalist Jody Dean.


"Records show she has a staff of 25. If any of them knew - and it would be hard not to know - they are complicit," replied Angela Morabito.

Some used the incident to call for term limits.

"Kay Granger's long absence reveals the problem with a Congress that rewards seniority & relationships more than merit & ideas. We have a sclerotic gerontocracy," said Rep. Ro Khanna of California, a Democrat. "We need term limits. We need to get big money out of politics so a new generation of Americans can run and serve."

Sounds about right.

I can't wait for Joe to comment on it.........well.....................anyway.................................................:auiqs.jpg:
 
Yep, she should be removed,

If an elected official is mentally compromised, they shouod leave office.

It is not complex.

I just hope there is a Deep State actually in charge of this.

Actually, it's the only explanation really.

My Mom is currently going through the same mental health issue at eighty.
 
How many more votes are there before January 3rd when she leaves office? How fast can a replacement be named? This another attempt at ginning up a nothing burger into a story.

I agree. The left is trying to say, “See, this bitch is a potato and yiu do not want her to leave office, therefore it is ok we know Joe Biden is a potato and do not want him to leave office.”

It is a pathetic attempt to justify Biden being senile and the most powerful man on the planet.

Fuck the cult.
