    The fact that Kay Granger is unable to leave her nursing home to participate in the most important congressional vote of the year suggests she was already in visible decline when she ran for re-election in 2022. - State Republican Executive Committeeman Rolando Garcia

    She is still a member of the Texas state legislature but is incapable of performing her duties. Instead of stepping down and being replaced, she stopped showing up for votes, stopped answering her phone messages, closed her offices, and checked into a memory care unit where she is unable, or unwilling, to speak to the press or apparently anyone else.

    In what world is this “relatively normal”?
