Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sent shockwaves through Washington this week after publicly revealing that President Joe Biden probably shouldn't have run for re-election in 2024.
The revelation has been hailed as one of the fastest reactions in modern political history.
Political scientists immediately gathered at Georgetown University to study the phenomenon.
"We've never seen hindsight deployed this aggressively," said Professor Martin Ledger. "Normally these observations take decades. Hillary accomplished it in under two years."
According to insiders, Clinton reached her conclusion after reviewing highly classified footage showing Biden struggling to finish sentences, confusing world leaders, and occasionally wandering away from podiums.
The footage was reportedly gathered between 2021 and 2024 and made available to the public through a revolutionary technology known as television.
Democratic strategists praised Clinton's courage.
"It takes real bravery to say today what millions of Americans were saying every day for three straight years," said one anonymous consultant while updating his résumé.
Party leaders quickly assembled an emergency task force to determine what other obvious facts might be acknowledged before 2030.
Early candidates include inflation being expensive, crime being unpleasant, and voters noticing things.
Meanwhile, media outlets scrambled to update previous reporting.
Several major networks announced special documentaries entitled "How Nobody Could Have Known What Everyone Knew."
One producer admitted the project may require extensive editing.
"We accidentally have thousands of clips insisting everything was fine," she explained. "We're trying to classify those as performance art."
Republicans expressed appreciation for the announcement.
"We've been waiting years for Democrats to join the rest of reality," said one lawmaker. "It's nice to finally have bipartisan agreement."
Sources say Clinton is already preparing additional groundbreaking observations.
Among her upcoming reports:
"Maybe social media wasn't actually democracy."
"People generally prefer affordable groceries."
"And perhaps calling everyone Hitler has diminishing returns."
Washington insiders expect these findings to dominate the political conversation through at least 2028.
At press time, Clinton was reportedly considering a bold new statement acknowledging that water may, in fact, be wet.
