This is actually disturbing. I don’t care whether that she’s a ghoul, the fact that they were able to hide a fucking congresswoman in the disability systems for 6 months is insane. How long does a normal person disappear within these systems, seemingly until they die if they don’t have friends.
I mean that is real and disturbing but I don't think this story is likely an example of that...
i met a guy who was turned into a mental hospital by his parents for being gay and began crying just telling me that there are unspeakable horrors in the mental hospital system, especially if you don't give someone you trust power of attorney
he said he had to suffer in them for almost 20 years before he was finally able to get out and warned me against ever going to one which I've never forgotten
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.

I've never heard of this news site before; but the articles linked at the bottom of this one are titled;

Can I ask why you posted the article from this particular site? not criticising you if it was a random pick, but I've seen the exact same story numerous less chudy places you could have used, and it's in the CoC to avoid chud sources
It was a completely random pick and I didn't bother doing some deep dive into the site. If you have a different site you'd prefer, then feel free to link it and I'll update the post.
Maybe just archive.org it and replace the link with that, so they don't get traffic(and our analytics)
good call, updated

When someone asks you who controls the federal government, the real answer is congressional staffers.
