There's significant evidence from state legislative term limits that they do, in fact, empower both lobbyists and state executive branches.
"Disagreeing" without offering any counter-evidence is just vibes.

I disagree with the suggestion that term limits would further empower lobbyists and therefore we shouldn't consider them as a viable path forward. The current system of federal elected officials who are financially incentivized to become insider traders until they choose to retire isn't working.

It's 2026 and Schumer is publicly admitting he continues to take Trump at his word

“And they are assured me they are not pursuing those things”

This is an illegal intervention in a country that poses no threat to the United States. Trump is trying to distract from the fact that he tanked our economy and kicked millions off their health care. Congressional Republicans need to rein Trump in before he gets American troops killed.
Trump says U.S. will 'run' Venezuela and sell seized oil in remarks on the strikes
President Trump says the United States conducted a strike in Venezuela and captured that country's president, Nicolás Maduro along with his wife, Cilia Flores.

Again, Marco Rubio was confirmed 99-0.
It leaves the U.S. in charge of managing the future of Venezuela, with potential consequences for American lives and treasure.
It is way past time for Congress to reassert its proper constitutional powers.

You don't have to listen to these professional liars who are barely trying. 9 months ago they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

As we watch the Trump admin fly into a capital and abduct/arrest a head of state, it’s worth remembering that he’s frequently called for American governors and mayors to be arrested for their supposed coddling of gangs of narco-terrorists.
