A Republican Congresswoman who has been “missing” for the past six months has finally been found.
Rep. Kay Granger has served as the representative for Texas’s 12th Congressional District since 1997.
However, she suddenly disappeared from the public eye around July this year, when she cast her final vote against an amendment to reduce the salary of Deputy Assistant Administrator for Pesticide Programs to $1.
A curious reporter at the local Dallas Express newspaper did some digging on Granger’s whereabouts and has finally been able to give her constituents some answers.
[…]We then received a tip from a Granger constituent who shared that the Congresswoman has been residing at a local memory care and assisted living home for some time after having been found wandering lost and confused in her former Cultural District/West 7th neighborhood.
The Dallas Express team visited the facility to confirm whether Granger was residing there and to inquire about how she planned to vote on the spending bill. Upon arrival, two employees confirmed that Granger is indeed living at the facility.
Her aids were probably running the show for years. What happens with these congress critters is that they create a support network around themselves to do the real work while they campaign for the next election. It gets to the point that the congress member themselves becomes superfluous. If it goes on long enough, they fall into dementia, but the aids don’t want to start over again with someone new, so they just tote their boss around from time to time like Weekend at Burnie’s. It happened with Dianne Feinstein. It’s probably happening with Mitch McConnell.
Also with Biden

Probably, but I haven’t heard much from him in a while. In my defense, he has done something terrible recently, a lot of terrible things have been happening. It’s hard to keep track.
Not that the election is over, I’m also willing to throw Biden on the pile. More then a few times in the past few years, he’s done things that remind of me of my old, conservative acquaintances. Biden pardoning the Kids for Cash asshole cemented that.
