In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less.
We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

Dems aren’t afraid of DJT & EM. Republicans seemed terrified to vote against DJT out of fear of retribution. Any moderate, reasonable Republican should change parties and start voting with the Democratic caucus to stop the madness.
Trump is not just parroting Russian talking points. He is setting a precedent. When a powerful state wants to take over a weaker state, it’s the weaker state’s responsibility to ‘make a deal’ to avoid it.
This is EXACTLY the rule that the world sought to REJECT after WWII.
He is supporting the ‘Nazi-esk’ AfD in Germany. He is also funding a far-right takeover of the Supreme Court in Wisconsin.
This man has virtually unlimited funds.
Intertwining that kind of program with Social Security's "earned" supplemental retirement income program is really confusing to most people.
UP VS DOWN
NOT
LEFT VS RIGHT
CLOSE YOUR BANK ACCOUNTS
OPEN LOCAL ONES INSTEAD
This is only the start of a very long road.

YOU CAN'T TAX WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE. They will take it away if something doesn't happen soon.

I want my Social Security
stage of life

On any amount you earn, no matter how many gazillions, you should pay the Social Security tax! No tax welfare for billionaires!
I have stood behind you for a long LONG time. That action made me disgusted with you....I expected better. YOU are now dead to me.
That costs money. Only a few options.
1) Increase taxes.
2) Increase qualification age.
Nobody wants either. Politicians too gutless to do either.
4-Star General Randy George, the U.S. Army Chief of Staff. Serving for over 40 years, George has received the Purple Heart. Trump and Hegseth are planning to fire him.
Tough talk does not and did not work
The ongoing purge at the Pentagon suggests that Trump intends to issue illegal orders to our armed services.
Sen. Tuberville has shown us that one senator can sabotage the officer corps. Can America count on you to be that senator at a time when patiotism demand it?

Rent is 2K a month average where I live. I don’t know how people survive. I guess that’s why there are so many homeless.
#EatTheRich
Not a single one if the part time jobs I looked into after being forced to retire from my public service job (teaching) pays into Social Security. Why is this?!?!?
Do we just sit around and complain?
What can we do? We already know they’re hacking vote voting machines so voting isn’t gonna help.

Our country is done unless there is a hero in the making to destroy the axis of evil… #PresidentMusk the daughter fucker and their overlord, Putin.
Haven’t seen democrats do fuck all to save us.
Not enough votes as you know with the MaGa hYpmOtiZed and in lock step with tWump goons over on the GQP side.
Why are they not filing Lawsuit after Lawsuit against the Administration
and Eio

who have No authority by congress
to do any of this
STUFF
????
How are they allowed in the building? Why isn't anyone stopping them??
#America is close to my heart.
I am grateful to you for being still so active for USA.
#USA needs you now more than ever before, Sir.
Because having #Trump in the #Oval-Office is dangerous, for #USA AND the rest of the World.
God bless you, Sir.
Can we instead put all our focus into the bigger issue at the moment. I.e. Trump and Musk
I would rather expect a persistent fight to keep our current rights that are in jeopardy …don’t you think?
So encouraged seeing your Town Halls 👏👏👏
We won’t give up.🗽🇺🇸
You understand how things work.

"Think about it: we have almost $4 trillion in entitlements and no one has ever looked at it before. You know Social Security is wrong. You know Medicaid and Medicare are wrong," the commerce secretary said.

So we’d really be helping them if we raise their taxes A Lot
I’d love to hear more about how to battle the fascist blitzkrieg underway. I think we know enough about what is wrong - we now need a strategic, focused attack and leadership driving that!
Fear for people that cannot pay 1st and or 2nd mortgages, property taxes--someone will buying up property.

“Trump says Pentagon spending should be halved…”
But:
“Defense Department expects to redirect those funds to other programs…”
So:
Zero actual Pentagon cuts:

Can you get other Dem Senators to vote with you, let alone Republicans? Can you get it on the docket and passed in the Republican-controlled House? Can you get Trump's tiny hand to sign it into law?
Try objecting to unanimous consent instead.

Shut down the Propaganda Machines!!!
Or hack them…change the narrative.
It’s separate from our CPP (which is sort of equivalent to your Social Security).
