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?

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

More accurate, fewer words;
"There are plenty of contractors going under".
A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.
PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

While Bob Uecker was always ready with a self-deprecating quip, he knew the game inside and out. He also kept his sense of fun about the game, and that was translated to listeners and viewers. May he Rest in Peace and Rise in Stories.

Merrick Garland is going to let Trump get away with it. Again.
If Biden won't use presidential immunity to release both sections of the Smith report then what are we even doing here.

Tried watching @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social again this morning. The normalizing Trump tour continues. It is just crazy to watch the media do this. I never imagined they would all behave this way. I wish MSNBC would use that time with shows like Way Too Early, Deadline White House, or Velshi.
