Day 1 of posting a new meme every day until @beyer.house.gov retires, instead of clinging to power.

Thinking about going all in on anti-gerontocracy

Despite being 76 years old at the time of the election, @beyer.house.gov has already filed to run for re-election in 2026! Don, you are becoming a liability. Please retire, secure your legacy, and make space for new leaders to rise up. The gerontocracy must stop clinging to power!

No longer giving citizenship (despite promises) to people who serve in the military, like my grandfather was able to get after fighting Nazi's on the beaches of Normandy. Meanwhile, it's being sold for $5m.

I'm starting a group to ask Congressional leaders over 70 to retire and help them lift up younger local leaders in their districts. Non-partisan. Starting with VA 8. DM me to join.

The tax bill would have failed if Gerry Connelly had stepped down after learning he was dying from cancer. Instead, no one in his seat votes and horrible GOP bills continue to pass. The gerontocracy is a liability for Dems. Ego = defeat. @beyer.house.gov please retire.

BTW this would have failed if Gerry Connolly had been alive to vote no. These super old democrats clutching on to power even as they are dying is costing their legacy everything. Fools.

The Senate votes 100-0 on no taxes on tips. It should completely put the bed the idea that Democrats woupdnt vote for something good to prevent trump from getting a win. Only GOP does that.

The movie Hot Fuzz is a cautionary tale about how NIMBYs will destroy the cities & towns they claim to want to protect unless the next generation unites to fight for what we all know is right.

Hi, I'm Joseph. I like native flowers, Solarpunk vibes, stablecoins, abundant and affordable housing, taking the bus, brussel sprouts, and long bike rides. Let's plant some trees or paint an illegal bike lane together.

Not to brag too hard but I'm ranked #5 in the world at an extremely niche online board game none of you have ever heard of which is played by just a few thousand people globally.

When they shut down an agency they are not saving American people money. Shutting down CFPB doesn't save every American $6. We're still paying all the same taxes. Now we just get that much less in services provided, never mind second order effects.
