HISTORY LESSON ON YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY CARD:
Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn’t know this. It’s easy to check out, if you don’t believe it. Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what’s what and it doesn’t matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are FACTS.
Up until the 1980's, Social Security cards expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes.
Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message was removed.
Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. His promises are in black, with updates in brackets.
1.) That participation in the Program would be completely voluntary [No longer voluntary],
2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program [Now 7.65% on the first $90,000, and 15% on the first $90,000 if you’re self-employed],
3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year [No longer tax deductible]
4.) That the money the participants put into the independent ‘Trust Fund’ rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program [Under Johnson the money was moved to the General Fund and spent]
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income [Under Clinton & Gore up to 85% of your Social Security can be taxed].
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month — and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to ‘put away’ — you may be interested in the following.
Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent ‘Trust Fund’ and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate.
Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
A: The Democratic Party.
Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?
A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the ‘tie-breaking’ deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US
AND MY FAVORITE:
Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?
A: That’s right! Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party. Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments!
The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!
Now, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!
And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve. Maybe not, though.
Some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn’t so but it’s worth a try.
How many people can YOU send this to?
When does the Pope choose selective wars to condemn? Guess 8 wars ending under Trumps negotiations was not worthy to congratulate or acknowledging 40,000 Irans massacred? Christians being slaughtered prior and during Popes reign. Where is the Pope while children are being trafficked and sold? He’s lives behind a wall with Swiss arm guards and zero women as equals within his enclave
Are you sitting down?
You can win 41% of the Electoral College without any voters showing ID.
You can win 43% of the House without any voters showing ID.
You can win 34% of the Senate without any voters showing ID.
No ID and all mail in ballot states.
Totally Insane.
I am done with the Republican Party.
Between this and Thune’s refusal to pass the SAVE Act, I’m done with these uniparty traitors.
I’m changing my party affiliation to Independent. No wonder President Trump is fighting an uphill battle every day.
If you still support Thomas Massie after he:
- voted against funding the wall
- voted against funding ICE
- voted against mass deportations
- voted against e-verify
- voted against funding DHS and ICE (again)
- voted to raise taxes on Americans by 3%
- voted against defunding Planned Parenthood
- cried about dead narcoterrorists
- was praised by Jasmine Crockett and deemed an “acceptable” conservative by the radical left (indicating weakness)
- opposed tariffs that benefited his own state
- voted against censuring Adam Schiff
- voted against censuring Rashida Tlaib
- voted against censuring Stacey Plaskett, who was texting Jeffrey Epstein on the House floor about how to hurt Trump during a hearing
- took money from IPAC, a group working with the Democratic Socialists of America to oppose ICE
- flew all the way to Pennsylvania to meet the founder of IPAC
- proposed a bill to increase legal immigration
it honestly says more about you than it does about him at this point. It means that you support open borders, mass migration and the displacement of the American people. It means that you have absolutely atrocious political instincts and a complete lack of character judgement.
Most importantly, it means that you care more about helping the Radical Left achieve their goal of destroying our great country than anything else, and you attempt to discreetly hide this ambition with the excuse of “mUh pRiNciPLeS.”
It means that you are functionally a leftist.
SAD!

FLASHBACK: Long before today’s revelations, Rob Reiner was tied to Russiagate. He founded an NGO with Brennan and Clapper that pushed the collusion hoax against President Trump. Hollywood and intelligence insiders worked together.
Rob Reiner was not a bystander during Russiagate. In 2017, he founded the Committee to Investigate Russia, a political NGO that promoted the Russiagate hoax. Former CIA Director John Brennan and DNI James Clapper served on its advisory board, giving intelligence world credibility to a partisan effort. The group’s mission was clear: cripple President Trump and question the legitimacy of the 2016 election.

Want your blood to boil?
There are 193 recognized countries in the world and 177 of them receive US taxpayer money.
177 of 193.
That’s 91.7% of the world.
It’s not Congress’s money.
It’s your money, my money, our kid’s money etc.
Americans are being screwed.
It must stop!
This is a very serious warning
Brigitte Gabriel who immigrated from Lebanon to America says America is going through the exact same path Lebanon did while being taken over by an Islamic government
“We are seeing today the transformation of our culture and our society, and this is a cultural war. This is an Islamic invasion and subjugation. Look, I come from Lebanon, which is now majority Muslim country. We did not start that way. When I was born, in my lifetime, Lebanon went from majority Christian country to today a majority Islamic country. How did that happen? Subjugation.
And by the way, even in a majority Muslim country in the Middle East right now, whether you go to Jordan or Egypt or Lebanon and Syria, you do not see people shutting down the street to pray. You do not see people praying in the public square. People who wanna pray go to mosque. They don't do this.
But we are seeing this in Western nation because this is a symbol of power. They are sending a message. ‘We will conquer you. We will control you. We will dominate you. We will win election and do it democratically.’
And at the end of the day, it may not happen today, may not happen 10 years from now, but 50 years from now, America will look like Londonistan, and and New York is being transformed.“
During Biden’s border crisis, Democrats gave illegal aliens 40% more for food than Americans on SNAP.
Now they’re using struggling Americans as “leverage” to demand free healthcare for illegals.
America last, again.
🚨 Zohran Mamdani announced he will begin looking into how he can seize people’s private property
“The guy's a communist. He comes out yesterday, Zohran Mamdani, and he says, we're gonna be looking at how we reallocate private property for the benefit of community housing. Reallocate, you mean seize it”
“Like you have a home, it's got six bedrooms or four bedrooms, you're an empty nester, you don't need that home, therefore we're going to take it to put illegals there or to put homeless there or to put whoever we want there. We're just going to seize your home like eminent domain, but we're not going to pay anything.
I mean, this is where this country is going down. This is a movement that you cannot make fun of. They're drawing humongous crowds. We're finally to the point in this country where those that want what you have are going to go to the ballot box and realize that they can vote for somebody that's going to take what you have and give it to somebody else that hasn't done anything.
They finally figured that out and they got 50% plus one in New York. They're going to take what you've built, they're going to take what you've earned, you're going to take your home, they're going to take your possessions and they're going to vote you out of them.”
