Did anything happen over the weekeknd? Congrats to both teams on a fantastic game. Anyway, it's Monday so let's roll...

As in rolling the GOP.
After President Joe Biden pummeled Republicans on Social Security and Medicare during his State of the Union address, drawing shouts of outrage from the party, Republican leaders urged him to stop telling Americans that the GOP wants to slash those retirement programs.

“The president, for a few weeks now, has been falsely saying that there are people that want to get rid of Social Security and Medicare. And it’s been inaccurate for a long time — and you saw last night when he tried to pin it on us,” House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., told NBC News one day after Biden's speech to Congress. “I just hope he stops going around the country telling that falsehood because there’s no truth to it.

(snip)

“We want to strengthen Social Security by ending a lot of those government checks to people staying at home rather than going to work,” Scalise said, endorsing work requirements for benefits.

Indeed, Medicare and Social security need to be expanded to stay solvent in the long term, but when a republican says they want to protect it, it is factually and historically untrue.



They took away Women's right to choose; don't think for one minute they are gunning for what we are literally entitled to.
