Despite the best efforts of the compromised corporate state media to cover up its deficiencies, the total incompetence of the sclerotic, ineffectual ruling class has never been more naked — on fullest display, perhaps, during the total catastrophe that was the June 2024 presidential debate.

Still, many American taxpayers who subsidize the farce might not be aware of the full extent of the rot.
Via The American Prospect (emphasis added):
In the past two months alone, 82-year-old Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX) was discovered to be living in an assisted-living facility with a dementia ward in her final months in office; 74-year-old Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-VA) won a high-profile leadership position on the House Oversight Committee after revealing he is battling highly terminal esophageal cancer; 82-year-old Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) fell twice on Capitol Hill just months after blacking out during a press conference; 84-year-old former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) fell and broke her hip in Luxembourg; and 76-year-old Rep. John Larson (D-CT) appeared to suffer a stroke on the House floor. (Larson’s staff has said it was a bad reaction to a new medication.)
What has eluded attention is the highly secretive hospital, housed on Capitol Hill and funded by taxpayers, that provides both emergency and primary care to an aging political class, which some have come to describe as a gerontocracy. It also runs classified programs known only to some members of Congress.
And let’s not forget the King Geriatric, he who allegedly ran the country for the past four years in between fondling children in public and being fed ice cream by his handlers.
“You know the thing.”
(Mind you, that gaffe compilation was made all the way back in 2020, before the American people were sadistically treated to four years of trainwrecks.)

You might not be able to afford your burdensome monthly insurance premiums, but Congress is blissfully unburdened by them, benefitting from what many have described as the most generous and comprehensive healthcare in the country.
Despite Brandon’s pledge to preside over the “most transparent administration in history,” the office tasked with providing said medical care to geriatric Congress members is notably opaque.
Nonetheless, the true nature of the care rendered has occasionally broken through the wall of silence.
Continuing:
In 2023, Congress designated $4.2 million to the Office of the Attending Physician (OAP), a Navy-staffed hospital with multiple branches spread across Capitol Hill. The current attending physician, Dr. Brian Monahan, who serves as a rear admiral in the Navy, oversees a staff of dozens of Navy doctors, nurses, and technicians whose primary responsibility is providing care to members of Congress and the Supreme Court…
Local Washington pharmacists have said they fill prescriptions for things like Alzheimer’s drugs written by staff in the Office of the Attending Physician. In addition, three current and former Hill staffers confirmed to the Prospect that there are multiple sitting members struggling with symptoms of dementia and taking medication to combat its effects.
Wild stuff — perhaps an office that DOGE might do well to delve more deeply into. (HIPPA should not apply, in my opinion, to high-profile public officeholders like members of Congress or SCOTUS.)
