  1. So once again, evidence the "conservatives" lying about the impact of their policies (NB: these are #NotConservatives, these are #fascists masquerading as consrvatives)

    Killing the most vulnerable around the world to finance #TaxCuts for the #wealthy is NOT conservative.

    #SocialSecurity shortfall expected to accelerate, with funds at critical low in 2032

    
The shortfall will be driven in part by a drop in #immigration due to #Trump policies & by Trump’s #TaxCuts for corporations & the #wealthy, trustees say, resulting in “trimmed” [we’re all #SOL] #benefits.

  3. "Meanwhile, we’re told we don’t have enough money to provide health care subsidies to the working poor. We’re told we don’t have enough money to provide food for children who are hungry. We’re told we don’t have enough money to fully fund public education. We’re told we don’t have enough money to care for those who are unhoused and struggling with mental or physical disabilities."
