In 2026, a YouTuber becoming a member of Congress would be the least outrageous event of the year thus far. Content creator John Green had been asked if his brother, science YouTuber Hank Green, is running for public office. There’s nobody better to ask than John, and the answer might surprise Congress.
In a video uploaded on the ‘vlogbrothers’ YouTube channel, John said he went to Capitol Hill last week. The YouTuber revealed that congressional staffers kept asking him if his brother was going to run to represent the state of Montana. He initially thought that it was a joke, but because it kept happening through the day, he realized that it was a serious question.
