Pelosi Retires, Gen Z Democrats Plot Invasion—Mostly For Fitbit Batteries
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, cruising at 85 like a vintage Tesla refusing to fully retire, finally announced her exit Thursday, setting off a Hail Mary in the Democrat geriatric game. Her timing? Genius. Just days after Rep. 86-year-old Steny Hoyer (who casually recovered from a 'mild' stroke and raised a meager $43K this quarter) hinted at retirement too. Meanwhile, insurgents like Luke Bronin (77-year-old Larson’s challenger, presumably younger than a decade-old flip phone) and Georgia’s Jasmine Clark exposed Rep. David Scott’s shocking 2024 voting no-show. Scott, 80, ghosted voting and MSM responses—channeling every ‘seen but not voting’ hand at poker. Top influencers from David Hogg to Amanda Litman are preaching ‘age-out before crumple-up’ wisdom, but 62 House Democrats of 69+ years cling to seats like grandmas clinging to bingo night. Also, Chuy García’s heart condition forced his exit, letting his 41-year-old chief of staff run unopposed, because nothing screams youth renewal like family business takeovers. Politics or assisted living solidarity? You decide.
