Will Trump be the oldest VP in history?

Good. Congress does not deserve a raise.
Are you referring to people like Senator Schatz from Hawaii ?
The House passed 8 or so bills this spring. They were DOA in the Senate.

Community notes for the win.

Elon thinks it’s real…

https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1870158886658834825?s=46&t=nLWTarDKWNHMqYhTVD-LQQ

No one is saying voter fraud isn’t “real.” What it’s not, is significant.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

He was able to filibuster for so long because it takes him an hour to say a word.

President Musk wants a Congresswoman expelled for being critical of him.

Guess Elon did not see this coming....

While this sucks, I'm more concerned about the millions of agricultural, meat packing, construction, hospitality, and other essential workers without whom our economy would crash and burn.... and nothing is going to get a significant number of native-born workers to fill those positions.

Lots of native born people already work in those industries, doing manual labor. Fewer every year though as we’ve let more and more people into the country to fill the low paying jobs that are replacing the high paying jobs we are losing. I suspect we have enough people to get your tofu to you in a timely manner.

There appear to be more imported workers in some sectors; fewer in agricultural due to automation. It's probably about the same in the service and hospitality sector.

The increase might be in construction and some kinds of factory work. I have no idea what they get paid; but they seem to work circles around 'native born' counterparts and actually show up everyday. A 'Mexican" crew will finish is roof in one day that takes an American crew the better part of a week.

Except that immigrant and native workers often compete for different lower-skilled jobs.  Just watch the farm, meat packing, dairy and construction industries lobby the Trump Administration to spare their workers from any mass deportation orders.  It’s already started.
