"Seniors nationwide are on the front lines of the fight to raise the debt ceiling, because if the federal government can’t make a June 2 payment slated for Social Security recipients, the oldest beneficiaries — those over 88 — and people with disabilities will be the first to suffer."

How about just going ahead and prosecuting him for the securities fraud he was indicted for 8 years ago?

Hmm. We all know about Ken Paxton but now the Texas GOP thinks he should go? You usually have to dig non-stop for a week to find the low bar they set to clear.

But whatever internal political feud he’s gotten into works for me as long as he goes.

Target shouldn’t have removed the products or drawn attention to the 3 items they sold by abprallen. I do hope they reintroduce the products and move on.

I have to admire the Chief of Police Scotland going on the record and saying the force is institutionally racist and sexist, hopefully they'll do something about it

13/ #BREAKING! #Meggs #legal

I commit you to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons for concurrent terms .... (edited)

CORRECTION: 12 years and 4 mos. Brandi and others corrected.

8/ Mehta: Why did you need the QRF for a security detail. Did you believe Rhodes' words were bombast? 1 msg, OK. But 2? 3? I don't know how anyone can stand here today and say this is just bombast. You were telling others on this OK FL hangout chat, you were prepared to die and that's what patriots did by the 1000s. Again, doesn't sound like security detail...Mehta notes how Meggs discussed bringing PBs into fold as force multipliers...

@TonyStark

No accountability.

7/ ...at first trial, there were witnesses that said you were looking for Rhodes and contemplating going inside the Capitol.

The GoTo Meeting was for organizing the operations, The armed QRF outside Washington...

Mehta draws Meggs attention to Rhodes words - "nothing left to do but fight"

Meggs was on those calls and heard them and he walked away thinking they were just providing a security detail? Mehta asks, incredulous
