Elon Musk recently suggested that anyone 70-years-old and older should be barred from running for political office.

At the start of the month, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX took to Twitter to announce his thoughts about political office.

And his choice for an age cut off to run for office is slightly memetic.



The tweet states:

“Let’s set an age limit after which you can’t run for political office, perhaps a number just below 70...”

The implication is that the age should be ‘69’, a common joke number due to its association with a sex act.

However, there’s a little more to the suggestion. Current United States President Joe Biden and the previous President and failed 2020 candidate, Donald Trump are both over 70.

Though some felt it may have been a dig at Senator Bernie Sanders from Vermont. Musk and Sanders recently got into a Twitter fight over Sanders’ insistence that the rich pay their fair share in taxes.

Reasoning aside, people were divided on the idea.








The age of politicians in the United States has been a point of contention.

Without a limit on terms in the United States Congress, some politicians have served for nearly thirty years. The average age of senators is 64.3 years old, the oldest average in history.

This has some people questioning if the current political landscape needs new blood. But is an age limit the right way?

Though there may be better ideas to improve the country.








Musk has a regular habit of making strange Tweets. For instance, he made a sexist joke that truly encapsulates the harassment that women in STEM fields face.

And despite being called out for that, he hasn’t learned anything.

When it comes to sensitive subjects, some people make derogatory comments instead of having a hard conversation, either to pivot the focus or to try to feel superior.

In a podcast episode from just over a week ago, "Mamdani's Talent Knows No Limitations," Meghan McCain openly praised New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani and said plainly that Republicans "would be in trouble" and "should be scared" if the possibility were to ever arise for him to be able to run for President.

Groceries are already expensive enough, and depending on where a person lives, they cannot guarantee the quality of the groceries that they're purchasing and eating. With many recalls going into effect right now, these concerns are especially important for produce.

TikToker Autumn of @wife_mama02 was alarmed when she went to the farmers market, only to catch an employee refilling a basket of blueberries for customers to purchase. The problem was that the employee was emptying out containers of what appeared to be store-bought blueberries into the bin.
