What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.
What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Trump’s unqualified cabinet nominees for every role are terrible, but Pete Hegseth is one of the worst.
Since his confirmation hearing is today, I wanted to show why he shouldn’t be trusted to operate a Pez dispenser, much less serve as Secretary of Defense.

No water system on the planet could’ve handled the challenges and devastation that 100 mile/hr winds plus grass plus drought plus hills brings. It was simply too much too quickly for anyone to manage effectively. No matter what the ignition source was, it was never going to be containable
