U.S. District Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander on Thursday granted a preliminary injunction to block the so-called...

The Social Security Database contains 394 million people with eligible social security numbers. The problem is there are only 334 million Americans. Obviously, not all of the additional 60 million are actually collecting social security but clearly some are.... https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1891357918605332965?ref_url= https://x.com/aidenHIKO/status/1891354011233890334?ref_url= https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1891350795452654076?ref_url=

In Munich on September 16, 1972, 10 days after the massacre of the Israeli athelets, a Nazi fascist rally, "the First National European Congress of Youth," was held. The 600 delegates cheered Black September to the rafters. Delegates also extolled Sirhan Sirhan, the Palestinian who killed Senator Robert Kennedy.

Just noticed on local Syracuse NY tv stations, Democrat John Mannion is stating that Republicans and "MAGA Extremists" are going to cut/end Social Security. In addition, they "rejected a bi partisan border bill because Trump told them to reject it." Not seeing any counter ads by Brandon Williams (R)

We are in the middle of a hotly contested presidential election. There have already been two attempted assassinations of Donald Trump. Reliable sources report Iran has sniper teams here to kill The Donald. So what does the Secret Service do? It sends needed agents to an all-expense paid LGBTQ conference at what Disney calls "The Most Magical Place on Earth." The Secret Service leadership finally admitted they did not assign the full complement of agents to Trump’s detail in Butler, Pennsylvania. Only a few were fully trained Protective Detail agents. The rest of the squad came from the B-Team. They...

Senior citizens shouldn’t be paying taxes on their Social Security benefits, former President Donald Trump said Wednesday, floating an idea that could lighten the federal income-tax load for about 40% of recipients. At the same time, a tax exemption of this magnitude could also speed up the financial woes for Social Security and add a deep bruise to the deficit, according to one analysis. ... If an individual’s combined income is between $25,000 and $34,000, they’ll pay income taxes on up to half of their benefits. Past the $34,000 mark, up to 85% of the benefits are taxable depending on...

The biggest question inside the investigation of the Trump assassination attempt, is the thing no one has mentioned. Why have there been no daily press briefings? ♦ Where are the official 10:00am press briefing updates every day on the investigation? ♦ Where are the official press conferences from the Secret Service, FBI and law enforcement answering questions and providing information from the prior days investigative results? ♦ Where are the organized and official updates to let the American people know what has been found out about the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump? * * * The Washington Post is...

As investigators analyze what led 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks to try to assassinate former president Donald Trump – and how Crooks was able to fire at the former president at a heavily patrolled event on July 13, 2024, one thing is clear, according to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. “A direct line of sight like that to the former president should not occur,” Mayorkas told ABC news on July 15. That same day, President Joe Biden established an independent review of the shooting. Amy Lieberman, a politics and society editor at The Conversation U.S., spoke with Javed Ali,...

RealClearPolitics White House and National Political Correspondent Susan Crabtree dropped an important report on the failure of the Secret Service to protect President Donald J. Trump and those around him during last week’s Pennsylvania rally. According to Crabtree, the potential lack of drones and the “DEI” protocols at the Secret Service contributed to the failure, but the biggest reason Trump’s life was put in danger is because rules of engagement prohibit snipers from engaging until the assassin shoots first.

The Trump rally gunman was laid out on his belly, took aim and fired shots into the crowd before he got met with incoming bullets that killed him ... and TMZ has it all on video.We've obtained an incredible clip that shows the moment the gunman opened fire at the Butler, PA rally Saturday -- and you can see the guy looking through either a scope or iron sights on a roof ... with people watching down below and freaking out, their panic palpable.The guy has longer brown hair, and he seems to be wearing a grey shirt/khaki pants --...

When my family moved to California, we traveled in a station wagon. I think my dad should have pulled a Mitt Romney and put our dog in a cage on the roof. Instead, our dog was in the back, near me. I was 6. Our German shepherd was named Prince. I think his full name was the Prince of Darkness. He didn’t like me. For the better part of 1,000 miles, I made a conscious effort to avoid making eye contact. I could feel him staring at me. I told my parents, but they thought I was making it up....

The Social Security Act, enacted on August 14, 1935, provided a new federally administered system of social insurance for the aged financed through payroll taxes paid by employees and their employers. Under the system, which applied only to workers in commerce and industry, people would earn retirement benefit eligibility as they worked. With some exceptions, benefits would be related to workers' average covered earnings, and workers could not have earnings and still be eligible for benefits. No benefits were provided for spouses or children, and lump-sum refunds were provided to the estates of workers who died before age 65 or...

Social Security is a giant Ponzi scheme and, like all Ponzi schemes, it will eventually fail when the cohort paying in becomes smaller and poorer than the cohort receiving the money. It’s going to take a sea change to remedy the problem, which means re-thinking the government’s role. Here’s what could be done: (1) The Constitution has the federal government’s job description, so we must defund any federal spending that is not within that description, and the projects, whatever they are, need to be kicked down to the state level where they either belong or taxpayer money shouldn’t be spent...

The Speaker of the House took the fall Remember last year when a Waffen-SS Nazi was given a standing ovation in the Canadian parliament in front of Ukrainian President Zelensky? It turns out that it was indeed Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who sent the invite. As we reported at the time, the Canadian Speaker of the House was forced to resign following the incident where 98-year-old Ukrainian SS solider Yaroslav Hunka was cheered and honoured, with Trudeau refusing to take any responsibility. Trudeau effectively sacrificed Anthony Rota, with opposition leader Pierre Poilievre noting that “Canadians are sick and tired...

According to sources, the former Speaker of the House was in contact with the Secret Service on that day and was caught on video stating that she was ‘waiting’ for the ‘trespass’ on Capitol grounds. She was waiting for it, in her own words. Pelosi reportedly spoke with the Secret Service before they spoke to President Trump on that day and told him that they didn’t have the resources to protect him in the Capitol. There was also a communication trail between Pelosi’s office and the Secret Service from that day, but, of course, much of it has been ‘lost.’Additionally,...

The Dukes of Hazzard star John Schneider is under investigation from the Secret Service after statements he made online Thursday against President Joe Biden and his son Hunter. The federal agency charged with protecting POTUS, the Vice President and their immediate families, as well as major political candidates and high level government officials, have opened the probe, according to Deadline. As Breitbart News reported, Schneider called for the public execution of Biden, saying the commander in chief should to be “publicly hung” for treason. The actor also called for Hunter Biden to be executed.

While Social Security is set to increase by 3.2 percent in 2024, many seniors are worried about how the limited inflation adjustment will keep them afloat. In a new report from Atticus, a majority of seniors voiced dissatisfaction with the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for 2024. In total, 62 percent of the 400 Americans over the age of 62 in the survey said they were unhappy with the payment bump. "About that 3.2 percent COLA increase for 2024, well, it sounds good on paper, but, honestly, it's not quite cutting it for seniors," Christopher Hensley, financial adviser and the president of...
