It's a great irony to defeat Sen Strom Thurmond's filibuster record.
And I'm old enough to remember the bastard.

TY, Cory!

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are going after your Social Security.

Why?

So they can use the money you paid into Social Security to fund for tax cuts for billionaires and billionaire corporations.

I joined
@SenBooker
on the floor to sound the alarm.

Thanks, she.

One thing I remember about Mump on here.. he was on the Rogan podcast.. and said he didn't see how they could give Billionaires all those Tax Cuts without cutting SS.

And, Why the upcoming "HANDS OFF".. Nation wide Protests on April 5, 2025!
