Why is increasing the retirement age never paired with increasing the deduction cap? Damn! If the cap was raised or better yet eliminated the SS retirement age could actually be lowered! Educate!!!
I hope the NYT, WaPo and other media keep with the “co-president Mump” stuff. Nothing will make Trump more miserable and anti-musk than the news that Musk is more important than Trump. As they say in Moscow, “Avoid open windows, Elon.”
everything that's wrong with having the stupidest people being the loudest people in the room is summed up by that one post by 'the rabbit hole'...they absolutely dont have a clue about how ANYTHING works, yet they scream the loudest snd longest about the stupidest shit...it's almost as if they're more than happy to break every-fucking-thing while simultaneously having no ideas about how to put it back together
which brings me to my question....what do y'all have against guillotines, anyway? (he says, clutching fists-full of guillotine futures)
I have been quietly predicting that Mump and Co. would shoot themselves in the foot (feet?) before they managed to do all the terrible things they’ve been threatening. Seems like they’ve started their shooting competition early.
First, I love that that twitter’s owners new name is just like the name of a disease that unfortunately may make a comeback because of RFK jr’s dangerous view of vaccines. How appropriate.
Second, any HS student in America probably knows more about how congress functions that mump does. Good thing he grew up in South Africa. But because of his ego even that basic knowledge probably wouldn’t have helped.
In any case, the next four years should be one fuck up after another by the orange shit/ mump administration, whoever ends up being some semblance of a president. It should be very interesting.
As one of those public sector workers, I’m grateful that the state pension I earned teaching in public schools for 20 years, will no longer be subtracted from the Social Security I earned teaching in private schools for (a different) 23 years. Let’s hope Mump and their trained gophers don’t reverse it.
I think that may be fairly common. I'm guessing when there's broad bipartisan support they're triaging their time for tougher slogs, knowing they can just dump these into omnibus spending bills. Emphasis on guessing!
Jeri, wow, thank you. We deserve more nice things, but we do get some nice things… like support from Newsfuckers like you! And improved Social Security Benefits! And the Gabriella Miller Act!

The moniker "Mump" is a keeper.
I thought of it then googled to see someone else thought of it first. Dang it.
Great minds...

Also, adult mumps causes male sterility.

It had massive bipartisan support!
Re: rural internet- some rural areas have almost no options for high speed internet except Starlink, so conflict there for Musk.
I'm partial to "Elon & Felon" myself.
I call him Leon

Jeffrey, thanks so much! I aim to be here for ya until Attorney General Hogan catches me...
Quick question because I’m a pain in the ass, but why in the hell has the senate been sitting on bills passed 9 months ago?
