Correct (not counting this as a question), and he is a journalist or writer about politics.

7,18. Most famous for politics
8. Has at least one E in his first and/or last legal name
9,14. Born in the United States of America after December 31, 1944 but before January 1, 1990
10,12,13,16,17. Never nominated for an Oscar or Emmy, or listed as "Starring" in the thumbnail at the top right of a TV or streaming series' Wikipedia page, or most famous for acting in action or comedy films, or the lead actor in a movie made after 1999

I figure if a living person who is either most famous for either politics or acting hasn’t had a lead role in a show or movie in the last 25 years… they’re probably most famous for politics.

The funny thing is, Nate Silver apparently voiced himself in an episode of The Simpsons in 2021, so there is a chance I could have given a "yes" answer to an acting question.
