It's almost a tradition that freshman congressman live in their office during the week and go home on weekends because they can't afford to live in Washington DC. They have no power, nobody knows who they are nobody cares if they sleep in their office. AOC has been a somebody since the beginning because of how they picked her and because she's an attractive big mouth ex bartender who's always sticking her foot into her big mouth. My prediction is she'll be there for decades and she will accomplish nothing, but they will all always go to her for her opinion because she's too stupid to know how stupid she is.


They are calling her a dark horse for 2028. Can you imagine her running? She would probably pull a Kamala and drop out before IA.

I think they give her Shumer’s Senator spot first. Then she can run for President after that.

I think only one person has made POTUS directly from the House so you are correct in that she needs more grooming. However, I do not think that she has the pull in the party to get a Senate seat handed to her like Hillary did. Hillary took lots of juice to first get the nomination on the Democrat side then somehow to get the GOP to pull Rudy and put in that jobber Lazio.

FWIW for putting Hillary over Lazio later got a consultant job at JPMChase which as we know is run by Democrat-leaning Jamie Dimon. Anyone think all that "just happened?"

Unfortunately, I agree with you. I don;t think it was anticipated to be a career when the government was deigned. Early presidents went back to work after they got out of office.


Early Presidents were rich landowners, many with slaves that worked their plantations. And more than one died in debt, if not poverty. Many early Presidents were political leaders before running for election so they worked their way up.

Look at the current day. The most effective legislator, the ones who appear to get their legislation passed are the ones who don't seek the limelight aren't bomb throwers and put in yeoman's work to get bills passed. That comes with experience and building relationships.

Here's the top comment for the following link:

"Biden needs to be charged with treason along with the Kenyan."


Inside this link, there's a 345 page report accessible from the Justice Dept from Special Counsel Robert Hur dated 2/2024.

Get it while you can.

This could be why Biden's health is deteriorating so fast and why he's doing things like commuting death penalties, setting all-time records for pardons, etc.

Absolutely done to please the Pope before he meets with him in a few weeks.

Probably the only Catholic cleric on the planet who will forgive his sins.

I'm surprised he hasn't been excommunicated for supporting abortion at such a high-level.

Musk makes Trump twice as powerful because it takes the heat off of Trump so he can be offensive in strategy.

Bingo! You hit the nail on the head!

I've seen so many dipshit libbies and wokies on social media saying "President Musk", and it's hilarious. I'm sure Elon gets a kick out of it because it shows his influence, and I'm sure Trump gets a kick out of it too because he's temporarily out of their crosshairs.

Yet the libbies and wokies still don't get it lol..... 😂😂

I'd like to see Musk hedge his EV bets with fossil fuels since we know global warming is a scam.

Especially since Buffett is accumulating OXY while having an extremely high cash position.

He could call the firm PetroX.

The lefties believe their own lies that Trump is thin skinned and easily offended and they think they can drive a wedge in between him and Musk by calling Musk the president. The thing we have to realize about the lefties is they always believe their own lies. They make something up and say it so often that they forget where it comes from and they think it's the truth. It's really pretty hilarious.
