      Maybe he took a wrong turn at the last voter meeting and ended up in Narnia.

      Weeks? Tom Kean Jr. has been missing for YEARS. 

      He does absolutely nothing. He might not even remember he has the job.

      If you don’t vote, you don’t have a record that can be used against you in the 2026 midterms. Ghosting Capitol Hill right now is brilliant for someone who’s district trump only carried by a point. Like staying home from school to miss a test you know you’re gonna fail

      Is there no length of health issue absences that disqualifies you from continuing to serve? What if you are in a coma?

      It seems like there should be elected designated alternate Representatives and Senators to cover absences. Yes, choosing not to vote is one thing, but leaving a district or State unrepresented due to the health (or other) issues of a single person seems to go against the premise of a representative democracy.

      Must be nice to have a job you can just not do for a while with zero repercussions.

      Another one? (which should be the public answer at this point) Texas had a old one who was in a nursing/assisted living home for 6 months. It took a investigative reporter to find her. Let alone Susan Collins, and the rest of the 70+yr olds in politics still.

      Our younger generation needs to follow AOC’s example and get involved more with politics.

      And I personally thought we hit the low mark, when an Alaskan Senator described the internet as a „series of tubes, with dump trucks“. And he was in the committee that regulated the very infrastructure of our internet.

      I really believe elected officials should not be allowed to hide medical issues from the public.

      They don’t necessarily need to release their medical records or tell everyone exactly what they’ve been diagnosed with, but an elected official should not be able to disappear with „health issues“ and it not be a serious problem.

      Must be nice to have a job where you can just not show up for weeks and not get fired.

      Do we need a national law that states „In event of 5 consecutive roll call vote misses, and lack of contact with party leadership, a state may execute a special election for the seat“?

      Man hasn’t been seen for two months.

      Must be nice to not show up for work for an entire month and still have 75% of your healthcare paid for by tax dollars.

      When questioned about the situation, Mike Johnson said „I really don’t know anything about that“.

      District 14 Congressman Randy Weber has been missing for at least a year. No public appearances, not town halls, nothing. Just FB posts about Team Weber appearances in front of any camera in the area. The guy is incoherent when you hear him speak. He sounds like he has the onset of dementia like Donnie.

      I’m no history buff, so I can only speak for what I’ve experienced while alive. But this has to be one of the most dysfunctional, unproductive, controversy-ridden sessions of Congress probably *ever*. It’s not even laughable. It’s downright embarrassing, both domestically and internationally.
