I'm recovering from a breakdown at the moment so things have been pretty tough- if you could spare a few moments to RT my post about the prints of my photos in my Etsy shop atm (previous post) it would help to maybe put my shop in front of a few extra eyes. Thankyou so much 🌿

Social Security isn’t a government handout — it’s what seniors paid into with every paycheck over a lifetime of hard work.

🚨 Funny how that gets forgotten when it’s time to protect billionaires’ tax breaks.

Social Security has nothing to do with the deficit." - Ronald Reagan

🚨 Republicans love to talk about slashing the benefits we earned and paid into our whole lives — all in the name of “fixing the deficit.” But that’s a BIG LIE.

✅ Even Reagan spoke the truth.

Chuck Grassley called out at a town hall: " Stop the use of the word ‘entitlement’ because it's insulting to all of us." 🔥🔥🔥

Fact:
Social Security isn’t the government’s money. Seniors earned their Social Security by paying into it over a lifetime of hard work.

Let’s talk about fraud, waste and abuse. Measles outbreaks are expensive to society. The human costs—hospitalizations, potentially severe long-term effects, immune amnesia, and death—are bad enough. But some aren’t swayed by this. So let’s talk about the financial costs of a measles outbreak.

I have had issues & been hearing from people having trouble just ACCESSING their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

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?

Attention working-class Americans:

Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security.

Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

An accurate headline.

Yet another injustice we need to apply maximum pressure on.

MI CD-4 (Huizenga), CD-7 (Barrett), and CD-10 (James) peeps: call and tell them not to kill your neighbors by cutting Medicaid.
To emphasize the importance of preserving Medicaid, we request that people in high-priority districts call and write their members of Congress who are in areas that have high Medicaid usage and whose reps have competitive seats. A handy list is below; the Capitol Switchboard is (202) 224-3121.
