🚨BREAKING: In a win for voters, the U.S. Supreme Court has denied a right-wing group’s request to force Michigan to place a proposed constitutional amendment requiring proof of citizenship to vote on the November 2026 ballot. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Supreme Court denies right-wing group’s bid to force Michigan proof-of-citizenship measure on November ballot
The denial, issued by Justice Brett Brett Kavanaugh, likely means the measure is dead.

Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.

We & the media are NOT talking enough about how a Florida grand jury found that $10 million was funneled from a settlement intended to benefit Florida taxpayers to Ron DeSantis’s wife’s illegitimate “charity” (that never registered with the IRS), where it was laundered before it got to the FLA GOP.

If all income in excess of $400,000 were subject to the Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. We could also expand Social Security benefits.
There’s no reason even to consider reducing Social Security benefits or raising the age of eligibility.
