I hope the Biden campaign is flooding the purple markets – especially in Florida, Arizona and North Carolina with update about Social Security
“If victorious on November 3rd, I plan to forgive these taxes and make permanent cuts to the payroll tax.” ~ President Trump, August 8, 2020

– Why you might not know that Trump is threatening your Social Security

I could go on, and on, and on
No one really cares.
People already getting Social Security payments feel untouchable (they're not)
Americans under 40 have become convinced SS is going away anyway.
The the rest of us are a mix of not paying attention, it could never happen and a few assholes like me. (Yes, my senators and representative know)
Unfortunately, the people already getting social security; and that includes millions of disability recipients; ARE NOT untouchable.

Election Day, Trump gotta go.
Day oh, day oh
In 62 days, Trump gotta go.
Hey Attorney General Barr
You will go to prison
Election Day, Trump gotta go.
Mike Pompeo in jail too.
Election Day, Trump gotta go.
Day oh, Day oh.
62 more days, then Trump gotta go.
My oldest brother died last night. He didn’t know he had colon cancer ’til the rusted spot blew out. Septic shock was actually the cause of death. They dropped him into a coma Sunday to put him on a ventilator and he didn’t come back. I guess I’m glad he went quickly rather than dying slowly of the cancer.
So sorry, Cookie. Death is a thief. We can try to remember the good times but the pain of loss endures. You and Karen are in our thoughts as you go through this sad time together.
I'm sorry for your loss, cook.

My condolences, Cookie.
Condolences to you and yours.
May he rest in peace.
A real shame, Cookie. Deep sympathies headed your way.
Big hug, cookie. In the 'circle of life' category my youngest added a son to his brood this morning, weighing in at 8lbs, 10oz.
Congratulations, Michael! He’s a big boy! I hope my brother’s spirit didn’t land in his little body, He was a full-throated Trumper.
Oh well, he was the oldest. The rest of us said he was the practice baby. Our parents did better with the rest of us-all solid Democrats.
He is a resident of the (failed) 51st-state so I'm going to have to keep my eye on him! His paternal blood has both Minnesota DFL and Colorado Eisenhower Republicans in their DNA so hope will spring eternal (at least until he's old enough to vote!)
So sorry to hear of it, skinny. 😪
Condolences to your family.
So sorry, Cookie. My 40 year old niece is undergoing chemotherapy for colon cancer. We're hoping it was caught in time — there were very few signs before it was discovered.
A pricy day. Wife and I sent Act Blue donations to Mitsch Bush, Hick, DNC, DSCC, Biden and DCCC.
Except for Mitsch Busch and Hick, we’re done with individual out of state races. DSCC and DCCC can triage them.
Strive On, Democrats. Hurl back the Fascist hordes.
Thanks for all the kind notes, everyone.
I think the shock is starting to wear off and it’s sinking in. But persevere, we must. There’s an election to be won and scoundrels to pry out of their seats.
On to November!
Well said, skinny. Condolences on your lost, and best of luck with the keep-on-keepin'-on.
