Republicans own this. Democrats need more retirements, but we can deal with that after we try to save 90% of America from this murderous looting by the richest humans alive. Thank you for your understanding and consideration during this difficult time.

This is what Elon wanted. For an Apartheid heir whose family apparently went to South Africa from Canada FOR Apartheid and mysteriously left after it ended, you could say this was the ultimate treat in the goodie bag for summoning $45 billion to elect…

It's a Job Loss Penalty. What the GOP is doing is penalizing poor people for losing their jobs by taking their health insurance and by loading them up with useless paperwork. If you're using the words "work requirements" or even "work reporting…
