Request for Written Comments—2025–2026 Formula for […]
Is the Pope Marxist?
The bear poops in the woods and Pope Leo XIV was born in Chicago, lived in Peru a lot, and has spent a large part of his life ordained in Holy Orders, so we know he’s Catholic.

Workers wearing masks while working with food just makes sense, think about it.
I think everyone who works with food ought to be wearing a mask just like they wear hairnets.
This David Grier person belongs nowhere near the health records of anyone.
The data mining that RFKJr wants to do with the health insurance records of Americans is going to go to a guy who chemically castrated autistic children and called it treatment.
More people marked dead in the Social Security system by doge than previously known.
How are we supposed to even know if we were marked dead by DOGE in Social Security if we’re not yet receiving Social Security?

Mistaken houses, mistaken identities, a serious danger for us all.
Smash & grabs by the government with a lack of due process are the threat to everyone in every neighborhood.

Feeding the trolls maybe gets you clicks, but rewarding stalkers with attention is dangerous.
Just don’t do it, it’s not worth it.
Bonkers quack anti-vax conspiracy social media research pseudoscience stuff floated as legislation.
