Chuck Grassley Tweets About His Colonoscopy, And The Internet Simply Cannot Handle It

Final Thoughts

Having covered Capitol Hill for decades, I can tell you that Grassley’s longevity isn’t just about seniority—it’s about a stubborn, almost archaic belief that the Senate’s power should be wielded through paper trails and public grilling, not backroom deals. His relentless oversight of the judiciary, regardless of which party holds the gavel, serves as a vital, if often irritating, reminder that institutional memory and old-school subpoena power are the last true checks on an imperial presidency. In an era of performative politics, his conclusion is simple: the system only works if you’re willing to make powerful people squirm under oath, one hearing at a time.
