So Rick Scott?

What is the meaning of a “LYING COWARD”? I looked it up in my special dictionary! Guess what I saw?

You are now deciding to pull your tax plan off the table, because you know it won’t fly even in your own party’s own pathetic bill passing schemes! Why, would you do that, especially when you said that taxes wouldn’t be raised on the middle class Americans? I wonder if your cowardly ego finally saw the chopping block fall from above? You called President Biden a liar, but who is the liar now? Your plan was full of lies and you got caught red handed in every one!

So I ask again! What is the meaning of a “LYING COWARD”.? The answers should come to you soon! I will send you a copy of my special dictionary if you want! Cuz, it has pictures and no words, which you think the public has?

'The legacy of Scott’s leadership of Columbia/HCA — once the nation’s largest for-profit hospital chain before it ousted Scott and settled the largest health care fraud fine in history at the time — underpins his political identity. The company is the origin of his fabulous wealth, which has allowed him to pump $106.5 million of his own money into his campaigns, $20.6 million of which he has dropped so far on his Senate bid against Nelson. Some of his donors this year are old friends from Columbia/HCA. And Democrats aren’t letting the issue go, either.'

All his ill-gotten gains will never satisfy him. The needless suffering he inflicts…may we live to see him get everything he deserves, along with the rest of the greedy grabber fascist racist club.

Since the right wing networks won’t air it, why wasn’t this broadcast during the Super Bowl?

The middle in Florida needs to get woke or the jackboots will recreate a Nazi state
Make people embarrassed to support Scott, Desantis, Gaetz, and even Rubio.

They will not stop.
repukes destroyed healthcare in America by privatizing it and now they want SS, Medicare and public education.
While their tent is shrinking quickly we must keep the pressure on.

Notice there's been NO talk about rescinding tax cuts. The M$M and Dems have not discussed how Republican tax cuts have put us in our budget predicament in the first place. It's always cut, cut, cut (taxes for the rich) and never hey, this strategy has blown our budget to hell.

Cut taxes for the rich and give handouts for large corporations. Then the budget deficit explodes. Cut programs that support low and middle income. Repeat. (For like 50 years now)

Every time I get one of those "This is not a bill" quarterly summary of my Medicare Part B medical expenses. There is always a section in the doctor's bill section that includes sequestered amount.

I would love to hear reporters interviewing any Republican rep or senator over age 70 ask them if they are already collecting Social Security themselves, are they registered with Medicare? Wealthy people NEVER leave money on the table when it comes to their finances, even amounts small in comparison to their main sources of income. Do they themselves intend to draw from Social Security in the future?

I don't begrudge them collecting their portion of Social Security. They paid in and they are entitled to participate in the program. But the point is they are ENTITLED to it. But so is anyone else who has paid into the system. That has always been the point of the program. It was designed so that no American would be destitute after a lifetime of working. Ironically it was designed to augment a pension from the employer or union, plus their own individual savings. But even if the worker for some reason had to use their personal retirement savings for an emergency, they would never be completely penniless.

But the oligarchs want everyone to work for whatever they, the employer, is willing to pay and blame the employee if he cannot save for their future retirement, no pension, everything on the employee.
