He can’t answer any questions. Always comes back to blaming Biden. What an idiot.

Yes he has Biden Derangement Syndrome

This is what senile seniors do. Repeat the same thing over and over and over again.

Senile old man.

This is what makes Trump’s second term feel different. It’s not just about remaking policy; it’s‬ about recalibrating reality.

This is why nobody listens to 23 year olds. You sound like a self-involved child.

It’s 100% AI. And not likely a 23 year-old either. Per usual, everything Trump involves a con of some sort.

Most of us Gen-Xers saved a lot in 401Ks that have compounded like crazy for 30+ years. I'm not pissed at all. I never thought SS would be there for me so I saved accordingly.

Barely a third of Americans have a 401K. https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2022/08/who-has-retirement-accounts.html

Every day, more and more progress!!!!

SEC. 90001. RAISE FERS EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS. –– Raises the FERS retirement contribution rate for many existing federal civilian employees and postal employees up to the new rate of 4.4% of their salary. ($30.716 billion revenue increase for deficit reduction)

SEC. 90002. ELIMINATION OF THE FERS ANNUITY SUPPLEMENT. –– For new federal retirees, this reform eliminates the additional retirement annuity payment that those eligible to retire before the age of 62 currently receive until they reach the age of Social Security retirement eligibility benefits. Exempt from this reform are those in federal occupations subject to mandatory early separation (i.e., retirement). ($10.113 billion in savings)

SEC. 90003. HIGH-5 AVERAGE PAY FOR CALCULATING CSRS AND FERS PENSION. –– Reduces federal pension benefit spending by basing a retiree’s annuity payment on their average highest five earning years (instead of highest three). ($4.750 billion in savings)

Leaders of a child exploitation ring? 2/3 chance they are Republican activists.
