YOU earned your Social Security. You shouldn't have to wait in long lines, be put on hold, or be told you don't deserve it by Trump or Musk.   This Social Security Day of Action, we need to stand up together for the benefits millions of Americans should always be able to rely on.

In a world where we need to defend our constitution, authors might suggest a bold, rapid response to restore constitutional balance:
1.	Convene a Constitutional Emergency Convention:
The signers would insist on using the very mechanism they enshrined—calls for a constitutional convention—to swiftly amend or suspend the unconstitutional “Dark MAGA” measures. Rally state legislatures and invoking the Guarantee Clause force a re‐examination of presidential powers and reestablish the intended checks and balances.
2.	Mobilize State Governments as Bulwarks of Liberty:
Recognizing that the federal government is now compromised, urge states to assert their reserved powers under the Tenth Amendment.  states could block or nullify federal decrees that subvert the Constitution.
3.	Launch a Nationwide Legal and Judicial Reassessment:
Even with a Trump-controlled Supreme Court, the signers might establish an independent, nonpartisan commission of constitutional experts to document and expose breaches of the Constitution.  
4.	Catalyze a Grassroots Civil Defense Movement:
Drawing on their revolutionary spirit, the signers would call upon citizens to re-engage in civic self-governance. This might involve coordinated public protests, the rapid creation of a free press network, and community-level oversight committees designed to hold elected officials accountable. By mobilizing the people—reminding them of the sacrifices made for liberty—they would create the political pressure needed to force even a compromised Congress to act in defense of constitutional principles.
5.	Forge a Crisis of Legitimacy via International and Diplomatic Pressure:
The founding fathers, ever mindful of America’s role on the world stage, would reach out to allied nations and international bodies to highlight the breach of the constitutional order. This external pressure, coupled with a loss of credibility abroad, would compel both domestic political leaders and the public to reconsider the authoritarian tr…

Both of my grandfathers were famous Christian pastors—1 white, 1 Black. I was born in 1986 Jackson, MS and grew up in a non-denominational Christian church my Black grandpa founded. So, I know the Bible and its authors couldn’t have fathomed same-sex marriages, trans people or the LGBTQ+ community.

Which companies have the most employees working on an H-1B visa?
Tesla founder Elon Musk is a vocal proponent of H-1B visas, and his company's use of the program jumped sharply this year.

Veterans deserve the best health care available. At a time when the VA is already understaffed, these layoffs will hurt veterans. Unacceptable. Trump must not cut VA health care so that he can give tax breaks to Musk and other billionaires. The VA must rescind this order.
