Elon Musk, the richest man in the world. Calling a program that he'll never need (Social Security) a
"Ponzi scheme" after you've paid into most of your life. Should really fucking piss you off.
WAKE THE FUCK UP.

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower.

Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Republican Senators who voted for RFK Jr. have the best healthcare in the world, paid for by you. They don’t care about what’s going to happen to your kids, your parents, or you.

Moving out of state can be costly and complicated, but Americans have been doing it on a consistent basis recently, according to a report. And one region has been attracting more new residents than any other: the South. nyti.ms/4h75TGp
