Meantime, he's still in the Senate (his current term ends in January 2026), which means that he's still able to continue to inflict damage to the Republic.

Per-spective: re-look…Mr. Biden is the same age as Harrison Ford, Paul McCartney and Martin Scorsese. He's also a bit younger than Jane Fonda (86) and a lot younger than Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett (93). All these individuals are considered to be at the top of their professions, and yet I would not be surprised if they are more forgetful and absent-minded than when they were younger. In other words, an individual's age does not say anything definitive about their cognitive status or where it will head in the near future.

Now you have to wonder if Mike Johnson would show up if the hearing was held today or not like his career politician counterparts.
