“Social Security has nothing to do with the deficit. It’s totally funded by payroll tax levied on employer/employee. If you reduce the outgo of Social Security, that money would not …reduce the deficit…Social Security has nothing to do with balancing a budget or lowering the deficit.” ~Ronald Reagan

Spain is on fire. Italy, Greece, Portugal — all burning. We have had summer fires before, but never like this. This is climate breakdown in real time. It is killing people, animals, and our future. DAMN the climate deniers. DAMN those who know and could do but do NOTHING www.bbc.com/news/article...

Wildfires rage across southern Europe as temperatures pass 40C

The top 1% own 40% of stocks, while the bottom 40% of Americans own almost none. Stop measuring the health of the economy by how well the stock market is doing, and start measuring it by how well working families can afford food, housing, healthcare and education.

I don't often lack words for what I'm seeing, but I am absolutely without words: TX-03 Congressman really just quoted Joseph Goebbels and then walked out of the committee like he hit a home run.

Ahead of Germany’s election, with anti-immigrant sentiment rising, they released viral videos showing life without immigrants. History proves that when a country starts erasing certain people, it doesn’t end well. 🧵

Another green card holder with a clean criminal record and legal status was detained and is being held under terrible conditions. Fabian Schmidt (34) from Germany was detained at the airport in Boston and is being held indefinitely. Picture of his with his mom, who is pleading for help on FB.

We need a whole new party. One that unites us in the basics. The "Service Party" or something. One that values and supports all who serve the country and the people. That includes many fields: Veterans and current military and police, but also education, health care and environmental protection...

1/3 Customer Service is dead. Profit is all that counts in all walks of life, it seems. I feel like we're under constant attack and have to ward off attempts of companies to get as much out of us as they can, rather than the other way around.

Same day I hear that a bill is introduced to no longer allow permanent residents ((Green Card holders)) to receive the SS benefits they've paid into for years, I also hear that they're going to issue special green cards for those who can afford to pay $5M for them. thehill.com/homenews/adm...
