Tick Tock....Tick Tock
The U.S. Senate is expected to vote on a bill that could restore Social Security benefits to more than three million Americans, including hardworking folks here in Western Pennsylvania.
The Senate has until Friday to vote on the Social Security Fairness Act, before the clock resets and the process begins all over again. If passed, it would eliminate the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO).
We're writing this Thursday evening and all the press is about the failed Continuing Resolution disaster that turned into a gigantic pork-filled mess of censorship funding, congressional pay raises and a new NFL stadium fund for Washington DC before collective outrage derailed it.
So now the focus is on preventing a government "shutdown" and we're wondering if the WEP vote is going to be tanked as collateral damage.
Maybe it all changes in the dead of night - that's when these things seem to be resolved lately.

The assholes objecting to it are claiming it’ll speed up the road to insolvency by 6 months.
What’s that you say? You worked and contributed to SS prior to and/or concurrent to your employ with CPD? Too bad, so sad and fuck you… the illegals are entitled to monthly debit cards, housing and healthcare and Pookie ate lead paint chips as a shorty rendering him too stupid to hold a job.
Meanwhile, billions are sent to Ukraine, 100’s of millions are spent on illegal aliens invading our country and here we have the loonies in Commiefornia spending 24 BILLION to combat homelessness… only to see numbers INCREASE by 30,000 homeless over the 5 year study period. DJT needs to hit the ground running on Inauguration Day and start reversing course on all this shit.

Billions more to Ukraine and everything will be ok....other country's first you know...
Vote democrat for more.
I’m ok with shutting down government. Let’s wait until president Trump is sworn in. Democrats will have zero leverage
Get the KY out...cause we get half...the back half
your "Betters" say...
What will happen
...You will pay more, less freedom, Now get back in your place.
Vote uni-party for more
28 republicants totally reliant on pork. Trump has his work cut out for him. The Dems stick together like glue, top down they take orders from above. You'll never change government with 28 rinos.
To all dumb ass politicians if one paid in one should get paid back
Working class Americans always get screwed but billionaires get all the benefits.
Rostenkowski was responsible for this phuckery.
I hope that they do the right thing for a change.
Shut down everything until January 20th. We're 36 trillion in debt and the interest on that debt is more than our insanely bloated defense budget. We're broke.
These douchebags in Congress still don't get it. They dropped a 1500 page bill full of shit on us and said take it or leave it. Well, we left it. And now these assholes are mad at Musk for bringing light to it.
There is no bank account that has "x" number of dollars in Social Security in reserve. Social Security is paid out from money that comes in. Speed up insolvency LOL!
National FOP needs to make sure Sen Ron Paul Ky, and Sen Ted Cruz Tx, are not elected to the swamp again. Wonder if they voted on billions to Ukraine.
A little off topic, but one Cali county has established a program to give cash payments to DV victims. The cut-off for eligibility is 10 grand a month. According to the county anyone with one child who has less than $10,000 a month is living in poverty. I retired from there and am not living in property because I worked a scab job. I get $2,200 a month in retirement (no complaint, I’ ve retired apparently before SCC piloted his first police car. I also have retirement from other systems.) but it does piss me off that I don’t get full SS benefit that I paid into. I understand this all came about because of people like me and doubled dipped. Fuck them, I put in the time and deserve what I paid for.
gotta vote on amendments Saturday One is presented by Ted Cruz to eliminate the actions of the bill Hey Ted your from Texas and should know better than anyone giving tons of money to illegals but you want to deny me my money (us citizen) that I earned. Hope the residents of Texas get samrt and dump you!!!!
A group of us are coming to piss on Rostenkowski’s grave and wondering If the cemetery is open all day.
The Congress was NEVER gonna restore our SS benefits. That was to drag along the working class into the CR debate. Call your representatives that if they don't vote for this pork barrel boondoggle that also makes it illegal to question or meme about Congress, you'll get nothing.
Set the elites up as untouchable and you might get some crumbs. No, wait, we're giving your SS to illegals instead.
Some idiots would let them indemnify pedophiles and Tren De Allegra if it meant a $100 boost to the uniform allowance.
President Biden here:
Look.... I just wanna say.....hey.....when I was under fire in Bosnia....look...c'mon man.....I really like jelly beans.......Jill, where are my pants?.........alright......everything is okay.....God Bless America.
Been hearing this for almost forty years now. Retired six years ago after nearly thirty three years. Haven't seen it yet. Just like Bigfoot. Keep hearing he's out there...haven't seen him yet.
Bill passed the Senate this evening. Been waiting 25 years for this. May God piss on the grave of Dan Rostenkowski and his political party.
Former Illinois Congressman & Convicted Felon Dan Rostenkowski an original SWAMPER! 36 years in Congress before he was tried and pled guilty and went to prison….. explanation for our younger readers
Can I still claim benefits because I was married to my ex wife for 10 years?
Raise a glass, they did the right thing and passed the bill. Merry Christmas, and Hod Bless America !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Bill has passed 76-20. Now as soon as Biden signs it we have a win
well open your eyes IT IS HERE>. 76-20in favor
It passed! OMG! First Trump gets re-elected, now this! I ALMOST feel hope! Time for a dose of Hey Jackass! to remind me we are still in Chicago.
It just passed the Senate 76-20!
Looks like we have a winner as long as sleepy Joe signs it. Congrats Officers. Fuck you Dan Rostenkowski you rot in hell.
It passed!
SSI windfall effort aka-HR82 passed wth enough votes to become law in the wee hours saturday morning. Nice Christmas present. These politicians finally did the right thing.
So true especially if you arent given a choice to pay in.
This war is going to end sooner than later guaranteed!
I'd like to piss on his grave
I've changed my mind on Wrong Paul. No longer support him.
Let me know when. I'd like to join you.
It was aggravating the shit out of me wondering when it would pass the senate. 2am Sat and I am very happy! Didn't think they would be up that late.
yes whichever is higher
Rostenkowski was and will always be a piece of shit. He created this bullshit commie rule. May he rot in hell.

Any Continuing Resolution means that the Politicians currently in office are incompetent in the performance of their jobs. Repeated Continuing Resolutions equals gross incompetence. Resolutions are a scam on Taxpayers.
