    Pelosi is going to try something in 2026? Sorry for being rude, but very few old people preserve sanity at that age, let alone intelligence.

      I don’t think it’s mean. There’s a reason we have a federal retirement age, and I think it’s stupid that we don’t apply it to elected and appointed officials.

        Yeah, so that employers can’t force people to work beyond that age.

    Cool. I wonder which member of the Puppet Party will win that primary to go on to automatically lose in the general election?

        It doesn’t matter who wins or loses a Democratic primary anymore. They are not a real political party anymore. The U.S. is a one-party state now.

        And anyone who doesn’t believe that, explain to me why the Republicans would willingly give up any of the three branches of government they now control.

            Other than still not being employed, I like it here a lot. I just really, really need a job above a specific income threshold to keep my kid here and bring my wife over.

              this is hard man wish I luck.

              how did u handle the visa? I thought on tourist visas you’re not allowed to work. and on business/work visas you have to already have a job lined up.

              unless u got a visa by seeking asylum. that’s totally 100% valid given why u left …

              good luck man!
