Republicans are cutting Medicare by $500 billion.

They're doubling and tripling health premiums.

And now, they want to hike the retirement age: "62 is the new 42."

Our seniors shouldn't have to work into their 80s to pay for billionaires' tax cuts.

I believe that if there is a god, there is a piece of that God in each of us, and depending on our actions, we can increase that force or diminish it, if it is there, which I don't really know. This means if we want god to act, we must act.

There's always been a fight over the true story of America. I believe deeply in the story that says we’re all created equal, and that if we can treat each other with decency and respect, all of us will be better off.

I talk about this and more on the final episode of WTF with Marc Maron. Watch now:

Maybe not for this election. So many people are completely disgusted with the GOP.

Yep, this is exactly why I posted nothing on my timeline. They are responding according to my expectations. Anyone who believed any different result would occur is naive, in my opinion. But I understand the desperation of the many people who wanted to believe them.

If the US Supreme Court overturns the Voting Act's Section 2 — a provision that bans racial discrimination in voting — GOP-controlled states could redraw at least 19 more voting districts for the House of Representatives in favor of Republicans, according to a recent report.

Los Angeles County voted to declare a state of emergency in response to federal ICE raids. Normally reserved for natural disasters, the declaration allows the county to mobilize resources and offer assistance to residents impacted by the raids.

LA County officials approve emergency declaration over immigration raids

The move allows the L.A. County Board of Supervisors to provide rent relief for tenants who have fallen behind as a result of the crackdown on immigrants.

The American people deserve a public health system that puts science before politics.

That's why California and 14 other governors are joining forces to launch the Governors Public Health Alliance to protect communities and guarantee decisions are rooted in data and health.

The US is far behind China and the EU when it comes to electric vehicles (EV). Next year, a 5-to-10-minute EV charger will be made available in the US, but the US has no electric vehicles that can handle its power.

10-Minute EV Charging Comes To America Next Year. Here's Why It Could Be Overkill

ChargePoint is bringing 600-kilowatt EV chargers to market next year. But there are no EVs in the U.S. that can take that kind of power—for now.

Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

He is so clueless. The dementia is kicking in, and now it is impossible to tell if he is outright lying or simply too out of touch with reality to understand reality.
