What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

I’m not sure the rest of the country fully grasps the panic and anger building in DC, MD, and VA.

The entire economy of this area is about to collapse. Paychecks are stopping. Careers are ruined. Taxes are about to plummet. Yet no one seems able to stop this madness.

I'll be honest, the "End Racism" thing in the endzones was the emptiest of empty gestures for an organization that chased a Black man out of the league for protesting the police murdering Black people, and where one of the teams in the Superbowl is named the Chiefs and whose fans do a Tomahawk Chop.

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:

2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada

3. Immediate permanent residency

4. Citizenship after 2 years
