A cheesehead is lovely local culture in Wisconsin.
It’s funny, ridiculous and and entertaining. What’s not to love?
But it’s a different thing in the hands (on the head?) of a carpetbagging grifter.
And Wisconsin just proved it.

Fe-Lon Musk, GO HOME!!

Fe-Lon failed to buy Wisconsin for Schimel. Glad they showed him the door.
Is Musk’s refrain, “SS IS A PONZI SCHEME” gone?
!!! NO !!!
In TX, US Rep John Carter said exactly the same stupid dribble to me about right years ago.

And Rep JOHN CARTER is STILL in congress.

Watch him.

If you believe Republicans won’t decimate SocSec, is it based on “logic” you’ve heard, such as “they won’t touch it. If they do, they won’t win in ‘26”…

Does Mr. tee have any intention of letting ‘26 elections happen at all?

Cut benes ‘cuz u want to.
Rig the next election.
See how easy it is?

Elizabeth Warren gets NOTHING resembling an answer from the Social Security nominee.
Q: “is that a benefit cut?
A: gegchjfcblah blah, blah, gobbledescmhookgook

No answer. This guy is unprepared and clueless.
You’d get a better answer from Yerham S. Andwich.
