Why aren’t the Democrats talking about how crazy some Republicans are regarding Social Security? For example, Senator Mike Lee of Utah has said he would like to "pull it up by the roots, and get rid of it." Lots of his Republican colleagues believe that, as well.

Trump made $1.1 million an hour in 2025, based on a 40 hour work week. Here’s another way to think about it—it would take 73 workers making the federal minimum wage ($7.25 per hour) laboring for an entire year to earn what Donald Trump is enriching himself with in 1 hour of his work day. 1 hour! -R

Trump’s cruelties land most heavily on children. Along with Musk’s DOGE criminal enterprise, USAID was shut down and life-saving medicines, food, water and other necessities of life were cut off, leaving millions of youngsters in poor countries dying, sick, or staving.
