Colbert, Kimmel Dishonestly Attack GOP's 'Heartless' Spending Bill

Colbert Rants That GOP 'Can Eat a Bag of D****' Over SNAP Reform
Some days, CBS’s Stephen Colbert is so far out in left field that it can’t all fit in one article. Thursday’s edition of The Late Show was one such occasion.

Bernie Sanders and flirted with tropes about Jewish financial power, Colbert would rant about the GOP’s proposed budget, claiming they “can eat a bag of [bleep]” for their…
Joe AND Mika Lied on Musk Aim to 'Eliminate' Social Security, Medicare

Taking From Peter to Give to Paul Is Not America
A newspaper story several years ago reported about an elementary school teacher who held elections in his class.

Entitlements, Spending Are the Real Problem (Not Kevin McCarthy)
Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley got to the heart of the government shutdown fireworks in her appearance on Fox News Sunday. “Let's be clear what the Freedom Caucus is really trying to do; they are trying to cut spending.” That's of course correct. One would be hard-pressed to find any Republican, Freedom Caucus member or not, who does not understand the gravity of the state of…
Ticking Time Bomb: Social Security & Medicare Are Broke
Social Security is toast. So is Medicare. Too many of us old people live longer, so there are not enough working people to support us. Soon both Social Security and Medicare will be broke. Our politicians don’t have the guts to do anything about it. Or even talk about it. It’s easy to see why. Recently, France’s president, trying to keep his country’s pension system from going broke, raised…

Reining in Government Spending? Let’s Get Real
Behind the refusal of the House Republican Party’s so-called freedom caucus to vote for Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., is the caucus’s skepticism that he will actually “rein in government spending.” I’ve never quite understood why all Republicans do not belong to the Freedom Caucus.
