The new Senate dress code makes perfect sense, from business suits to hoodies, baggy pants, bare legs, and tennis shoes.
We are living in a new culture divorced from the old. Instead of supporting the police, we defund them. Instead of arresting thieves, we give them permission to steal up to a thousand-dollar limit. Instead of incarcerating arrested evildoers, we release them with no cash bail. Instead of securing borders, we open them. Instead of strengthening parents to protect their children, we send the FBI to surveil them. Instead of teaching history, we rewrite it. Instead of holding on to the Judeo-Christian foundation as a nation, we secularize it. Instead of honoring the flag, we burn it. Instead of remembering the past, we tear down statues.
When Fetterman walked onto the Senate floor expressing his individualism and freedom of expression, who was worthy to judge him? No one expected him to be limited to a rule written 250 years ago by long-dead white men. On the contrary, America must celebrate, jettisoning the old and embracing the new.
The Senate’s dress code must go, sacrificed on the altar of a new rugged individualism. “Woke” has finally arrived at the heart of our country, in the sacred chamber of the United States Senate. The Senate’s dress code is changed, and everybody is happy because, in plain sight of the whole world, this is what the last 10 years of fundamentally changing America looks like.
