Biden’s Big Lie About Social Security and Medicare

Biden’s Big Lie About Social Security and Medicare
  • He is once again peddling the false claim that Republicans plan to gut both programs.
"Democrats and the corporate media have often accused former President Donald Trump of using a propaganda strategy called the “Big Lie” to convince Americans that the 2020 election was stolen. 
  • They remind us that Adolf Hitler coined the term in Mein Kampf and that his minister of propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, perfected the technique. Essentially, it involves relentlessly repeating a colossal lie until the public eventually comes to believe it. It is little wonder that the Democrats and the Fourth Estate are so familiar with this strategy — they employ it themselves every election cycle.
  • Their Big Lie of choice is the perennial claim that the Republicans are plotting to gut Social Security and Medicare. President Joe Biden repeated that yarn during last week’s State of the Union address: “Republicans say if we don’t cut Social Security and Medicare, they’ll let America default on its debt for the first time in our history.”...

They will allow NO disagreement!

It’s a tough job, and if they can get most of their students to learn the basics it makes sense to pay them well.
But what if, say, not one of their students can perform basic tasks at grade level?
Not even one. 
Nada. 
Zip.

The Department of Homeland Security is reducing its fleet of surveillance blimps along the overwhelmed southern border from 12 to four, Fox News reported Thursday. "It's hard to believe how badly Biden has botched the border," Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla.) told EWTN News Nightly on Thursday. "Now, if he gets rid of these blimps, we're not going to know how many gotaways there are. It's going to make our border way less secure," the Sunshine State lawmaker continued.
