vocal opposition to democratic gerontocracy is nifty because it serves a constructive purpose — passing the torch — and a political one: signaling independence from The Democrats.
35-year-old Dem Harry Jarin launches primary challenge to Rep. Steny Hoyer, who's 50 years older:

"I'm not trying to be cruel or callous, but I want Democrats to win, and there are consequences for having this gerontocracy, and we have to reckon with that."
Rep. Steny Hoyer draws a challenger who makes the age argument explicit
A 35-year-old volunteer firefighter said longtime incumbent is "still operating in this 1980s information environment."

This guy is like one of 4 Americans who actually went and got their REAL ID and immediately they said it was a fake.

Trump used a pic of war deaths in Democratic Republic of Congo to push lie of South African white "genocide."

But it gets worse. He's slashed refugee resettlement from DRC while using corpses from that war as "evidence" of fake atrocities against whites!

Trump’s Lie About Dead “White Farmers” Just Got Even More Grotesque
That photo he brandished to Cyril Ramaphosa was from the Democratic Republic of Congo—whose refugees the Trump administration is pointedly not welcoming to America.

“Now I can feel their pain,” says Mahdawi. Despite the U.S. government and pro-Israel groups’ attempts to silence his calls for an end to genocide in Gaza, he adds, “I share my pain with the world.”

It’s 2 am and we’re still marking up massive cuts to Medicaid.

While their constituents are asleep, Republicans are trying to take away health care from 13.7 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
