Can you imagine sitting down for breakfast and all of a sudden a wall of mud comes through your living room wall?
And then there is this…

Their current social security plans... Republicans want you to work until you die," the progressive advocacy group Social Security Works tweeted Sunday. "Shameful." Max Richtman, president and CEO of the National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare, wrote in an op-ed for The Hill last week that "America's seniors cannot afford benefit cuts, including raising the eligibility ages for future Social Security and Medicare beneficiaries." "Of course, the public is not demanding that Social Security and Medicare be cut. Quite the opposite: both programs remain overwhelmingly popular. A large majority of voters (83 percent) across party lines say they want to see Social Security expanded, not slashed, with the wealthy contributing their fair share in payroll taxes," Richtman continued. "Nevertheless, McCarthy has empowered a handful of ultra-MAGA members to dictate policy for the new House majority." www.rawstory.com/republicans-social-security-cuts/If you want to keep working do but don’t force the rest of us. Heck politicians often keep working well past when they should retire. Don’t force seniors to have to work, don’t force them to choose between food and much needed meds. I don’t know anyone even republicans that voted for former that want to see these kinds of cuts. |

I think the question that has to be asked is if dumpster don had turned all of the classified documents back to the NARA when asked for them in May 2021 would a Special Counsel been assigned to investigate? Or did his actions warrant one be assigned and not to be accused of not showing equal treatment the DOJ assigned a Special Counsel to investigate President Biden’s handling of classified documents as well when under any other circumstances one wouldn’t have been assigned?

If TFG had kept his mouth shut we wouldn't even know about the search warrant and seizure of documents. We had not heard about the letters or other visit in June 2022 until he opened his mouth.

McCarthy's staff knew about Santos chief of staff impersonating McCarthy's chief of staff sending emails soliciting donations.. That New York Times article appears to be this one published Friday, but CNBC points to a Washington Times report from last month that reads: "McCarthy’s team first learned about a Santos staffer impersonating the speaker’s chief of staff in August 2021, the Times wrote. The publication said the staffer would call donors pretending to be Meyer and send follow-up emails from a fake address." Conservative Bill Kristol observes, "McCarthy seems to have known in 2021 a Santos staffer was impersonating McCarthy’s chief of staff, and he did nothing to inform those who were duped or the public. Nor did he stop Santos from running in 2022. The Santos scandal is also a McCarthy scandal." www.rawstory.com/why-did-mccarthy-say-he-wasn-t-notified-a-santos-staffer-impersonated-his-chief-of-staff-until-later/#cxrecs_s |

The Republicans don’t want you to know this… The deficit went down in 2022 because the government stopped handing out covid relief money and stimulus checks. |

That's part of the story but the deficit was also reduced because tax revenue increased and the economy reopened. Both of those things happened in part because of the stimulus checks. www.nytimes.com/2023/01/12/business/us-deficit-falls-2022.html |

Couy Griffin the cowboy who was at Jan 6.. he was a county commissioner or something.. will look again. He was removed from his position by the court or a judge under 14th Amendment for being insurrectionist.. he had been in an elected position.. one of the few ... *** Couy Griffin Couy Dale Griffin is a former politician who served from 2019 to 2022 as a county commissioner for District 2 of Otero County, New Mexico, which covers Tularosa, Three Rivers, La Luz, the western parts of Alamogordo, and the Mescalero Apache Reservation. Wikipedia *** New Mexico county commissioner and Cowboys for Trump founder removed from elected office for role in US Capitol riot By Hannah Rabinowitz, Holmes Lybrand and Scott Bronstein, CNN Updated 8:01 PM EDT, Tue September 06, 2022 The ruling was the result of a lawsuit seeking Griffin's removal, which alleged that he violated a clause in 14th Amendment of the Constitution by participating in an "insurrection" against the US government. He had been convicted of trespassing earlier this year. The historic ruling represents the first time an elected official has been removed from office for their participation or support of the US Capitol riot. It also marks the first time a judge has formally ruled that the events of January 6, 2021, were an "insurrection."www.cnn.com/2022/09/06/politics/couy-griffin-new-mexico-january-6/index.html |

My guess is he wants to run for president. Best way to make sure President Biden doesn’t run is say something like this. If Schiff does run, I will not be voting for him in the CA primary. Headline from ABC News… “ Biden classified documents need to be reviewed for national security risks, Schiff says”"I'd like to know what these documents were," Rep. Schiff said on "This Week" my OPINION, admittedly without any formal expertise: Joe Biden most likely will not win a 2nd term in the general election if just 2 major candidates run. There’s just too much to throw at him, right or wrong, fact or fiction, there’s just too much stuff to throw to see what sticks. And we all know alternative facts count for something for like %47 of the population. Between the speaking mistakes they’ll run over & over, inheriting the falling pandemic economy and inflation and now classified documents ( whether it’s apples to apples or apples to squirrels comparison ) it’s just a field day for the gullible. Dems needs to move on if they expect to win the presidency in 2024. They just have to. A 3rd non traditional candidate changes my opinion entirely though. At that point all bets are off. I agree with this. IMO, Joe Biden is a good man.He will very likely be exonerated. But I think that a younger candidate is needed-and I say that as someone who is also in the senior citizen category. I really have thought for awhile that it is time to let younger generations take the wheel.The other thing is that this documents investigation will be milked for all that it’s worth by the GOP. Fair or not, that’s how they do things. |

That was going to happen anyway so Biden making it sound like it was all his doing is false. The only part he played in it was to stop sending out stimulus money. |

Here is yet another example of Republicans making claims but provide absolutely no verifiable proof this is happening. In this case they passed a bill about something they claim is happening but offer no statistics.

Who thought it would be a good idea for these two to represent the United States?
Sinema’s reasons for leaving the Democratic Party is because the Democrats wanted to change the filibuster and vote for a voting rights bill? Seriously?
