Social Security lifted 26.3 million Americans out of poverty in 2021 alone. Nearly 40 percent of seniors rely on it for the majority of their income. We should be expanding this program, not cutting it.

NEW: Rep. Cory Mills owns a defense company that appears to have been illegally exporting weapons to Ukraine—while Mills sits on the committee with oversight of those sales. This has gone unreported and for a long time unknown in Congress. My latest here:

‘George Santos with a Gun,’ Pt. III: Up In Arms
Cory Mills appears to be the first active arms dealer to serve in Congress. That's probably because companies owned by members of Congress aren't legally allowed to export weapons—but his does.

It didn’t take five minutes of her “leadership” tenure for Ms Weiss to crush the integrity of Sixty Minutes.
“60 Minutes” correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi says she requested comment from DHS, State and the WH. They declined, then complained and Bari Weiss spiked the story. Alfonsi says it gave the Trump administration a “kill switch”.

This shady deal was BLOCKED.
A private equity company tried to abuse the bankruptcy system to slither out of paying what they owe to seniors neglected in its nursing homes.
We stayed in the fight and the deal was blocked.
Next, we need PE out of health care altogether.

Something doesn’t compute. Seniors getting the shaft under this regime. They are screwing the elderly on fixed incomes right now and we are in a recession.
Simply put, that COLA increase stinks and doesn’t accurately reflect the economic reality.

I’ve been a longtime supporter of reforming the capital gains tax so we can help seniors to downsize and young people to afford a home. That's why for years I've been fighting to pass the More Homes on the Market Act to increase the capital gains tax exclusion for the sale of a primary residence.

Add to this the threat of major cuts to Medicaid the program that funds much of our long-term care—and our seniors are in real danger. We owe our seniors, and those who care for them, safety, dignity, and real support, not the bare minimum because it suits someone else’s bottom line.

The cowardice of the Senate majority as they kneel at the knee of their would -be king must cause the nation to rise up and drive them into their next careers as lobbyists for the insurance industry!
Republicans voted for a trillion dollars in tax breaks for the 1%, but they couldn't vote to protect 20 million Americans from seeing a doubling — on average — of their health care premiums.
Pathetic.

Elections have consequences. Get to work!
We thought the Supreme Court would protect us from Trump's worst abuses. Instead it has facilitated them. The SC has allowed Trump to ignore the Constitution and do whatever he wants with no restraints. They don't even pretend to enforce the rule of law.
