When all this insanity is over, I wonder how many MAGA people will cross the line to oppose capital punishment when our weak and failing leader and his cabinet are arrested for treason.

It's cute to see Republicans using Barack Obama's unilateral decision to bomb Libya as a defense of Trump's decision to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities. I'm old enough to remember them screaming like stuck pigs about the unconstitutionality of the attack. Even many Democratic leaders were critical of the decision. Obama himself, in 2016, called Libya the greatest mistake of his presidency.

But, like children, all MAGA knows is that precedent breeds excuse, so long as it is convenient.

Our weak and failing leader’s justification for attacking Iran was the same as Japan’s had for attacking Pearl Harbor and Germany’s for attacking the UK. I’m thinking about how that turned out.

Ok so our weak and failing leader said he will decide on starting a way with Iran in weeks. That goes along with infrastructure week, the TikTok ban, whether he will deport his Mar A Lamo workers, and 89 more trade deals. So I can definitively say we won’t be going to war

It’s an easy fix. Just remove the income cap on SSI payments, or at least raise it to $500K and curtail payments to people with more than $10m in liquid assets. Both will be funded well into the 22nd century.

Medicare and Social Security go-broke dates pushed up

The go-broke dates for Medicare and Social Security’s trust funds have moved up as rising health care costs and new legislation affecting Social Security benefits have contributed to closer projected depletion dates. That's according to an annual report released Wednesday. The go-broke date is the date at which the programs would no longer have funds to pay full benefits. Medicare’s go-broke date for its hospital insurance trust fund was pushed up to 2033 in the new report. Last year’s report put the go-broke date at 2036. Meanwhile, Social Security’s trust funds — which cover old age and disability recipients — will be unable to pay full benefits beginning in 2034, instead of last year’s estimate of 2035.
