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.
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.

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.

“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.

Mornin' all! 
I'm still half in a weed & food-induced coma right now, and I'm trying to concentrate on work. As Mr. President says, "Good luck in your senior year."

Oh btw controversial opinion: I thought the halftime show was acceptable. Not great, but good enough. And I'm not even really a fan of Rhianna.
Nothing beats Prince tho.

Good morning bloggers from the cloudy San Fernando Valley!!!!
Let us remember that the GOP has regularly opposed Social Security and Medicare since the start of the two programs.
I thought that Rihanna was good but I liked Beyonce and Lady Gaga a lot better, Prince, however, remains the platinum standard.

Yeah, she is an amazing voice talent, and the set design was cool, but I don't think this was the best showcase for her.
