Maxwell Frost, first Gen Z congressman-elect, appears on cover of Teen Vogue

Rep.-elect Maxwell Alejandro Frost (D-Fla.), the first member of Generation Z elected to Congress, appears on the latest cover of Teen Vogue as he waits to be sworn in, a process delayed by the drawn-out election for Speaker of the House.

“This whole thing feels really surreal. It’s crazy to think that the same streets I was arrested on two years ago [during the George Floyd protests], I’m about to represent in Congress,” Frost, 25, told Teen Vogue of his election to the lower chamber.

The feature on Frost profiles his early interest in politics and activism, his upbringing as an Afro-Cuban adopted by a white and Cuban couple — and his campaign to beat out his 72-year-old Republican opponent in this year’s midterms.

Frost won the midterm race to fill the seat vacated by Rep. Val Demings (D-Fla.), who left the House to run for Senate. He campaigned on his Gen Z identity, arguing that a younger perspective would add to the voices on Capitol Hill.

Brain is not fully functioning for a child until their late 20s. So having our nation run partly by them is not wise.

“Though the brain may be done growing in size, it does not finish developing and maturing until the mid- to late 20s. The front part of the brain, called the prefrontal cortex, is one of the last brain regions to mature. This area is responsible for skills like planning, prioritizing, and controlling impulses.”

This guy is anti-police and a social justice warrior. Probably a Soros plant per Bud Hedinger on WFLA radio here in Orlando.

Here is a movie about the youth vote.

Wild in the streets 1968
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcUv4dAiCkA

The movie was about a young man named Max Frost who supports a senator played by Hal Holbrook. Max wants to lower the voting age to 14. He gets elected as president of the USA and ends up banishing all old people to camps where they are fed LSD.

The inmates are now running the asylum. The Asylum being the United States of America. We, as a Nation have no way to go but down. Mr. Frost, is not among the brightest and best America has to offer. But he is who the voters want to represent them. This is what the Nation cannot and will not survive. To wit:} voters who elect idiots like this to run the Nation.

[the Nation cannot and will not survive]

That is exactly what is going to happen.

Unfortunately.

I meet twenty-somethings here and there who think they’re really got good stuff going on. They simply haven’t a clue.

They will be rather perplexed how all that they once took for granted suddenly fell apart. Global Warming, no doubt.

Newly elected Congressman Eli Crane , Az. 2 , is a real fighter. He is part of the Patriotic 20 and is a former Seal. I am a little dissapointed he did not second Trump for Speaker. Nobody else did either.

They’ll be running things in 20 years, mandating their elders commit assisted suicide. I hope Lord Jesus retrieves his own before then.

“...I was arrested on two years ago [during the George Floyd protests]...”

Someone who actually participated in an actual insurrection...
