“Schmitt happens” is the the best thing out there since Trump said “Iran has no cards” & someone made up “Oh yeah? They have a strait!”

If the Democrat elected President in 2029 doesn’t make Jack Smith Attorney General, he or she is an idiot.

If there were no gerrymandering in America, I think Democrats would pick up 100 House seats in November. That’s how baked in Republican failure is at this point. They have NOTHING but lies to run on.

I am trying to stay in my senior issues lane, but the disgraceful “hearing” today with Jack Smith requires comment. EVERY REPUBLICAN DESERVES TO LOSE IN NOVEMBER. THEY ARE ALL COMPLICIT IN THE CRIMES OF JAN 6TH. AND ERIC SCHMITT & HIS STAFF OF IDIOTS NEED TO GO ROT IN HELL.

Social Security CAN'T CONTRIBUTE A SINGLE PENNY TO THE DEBT. But Republicans are trying to create a closed-door commission to cut our hard-earned benefits. Instead, TAX THE BILLIONAIRES!

David Valadao said he wouldn’t support a bill that made harmful cuts to Medicaid or put Central Valley hospitals at risk. Days later, he voted for the Big Ugly Bill, which will cut about $1 trillion from Medicaid over 10 years and leave 11.8 million more people uninsured. SHAME.

A graphic with photos of Rep. David Valadao and Jon "Bowzer" Bauman. The text says, on the left, “I've been clear from the start that I will not support a final reconciliation bill that makes harmful cuts to Medicaid” – David Valadao (R CA-22). On the right, Bowzer asks "Were there cuts to Medicaid? YES. He lied. He lied to everybody."

This is Alex. Alex is the Executive Director of Social Security Works. When Alex heard that Texas Republicans were holding a hearing on creating a closed-door commission to cut Social Security, he exposed their plan to steal our earned benefits. Be like Alex.

That’s why it’s so important that we showed up―to remind the media when they cover stunts like this that Social Security doesn’t add a single penny to the debt, but tax cuts for Billionaires like Harlan Crow sure do.

Billionaires like Harlan Crow are the ones with the most to gain from Social Security cuts, because they have the extraordinary wealth that both allows them to bend Congress to their will and bribe Supreme Court Justices―and could close Social Security’s trust fund shortfall on its own.

Republican budget chair Jodey Arrington personally thanked billionaire Harlan Crow at the end of a “not-so-public” hearing to create a backdoor commission to cut Social Security. Republicans have taken the side of billionaires in the fight for Social Security’s future. Shameful.
