Social Security marks 89th year as retirement fund risks insolvency under Democrats
Social Security, born 89 years ago under FDR, faces a grim future. Predicted depletion of its trust fund by 2033 has Americans worried—80% fret about their benefits. Solutions are needed, or future retirees might receive just 83% of what they've earned.

Raising the retirement age and adjusting payroll contributions are on the table, but a growing elderly population and longer life expectancy complicate matters. Lawmakers better act fast, or the Social Security safety net may become a tattered remnant of its former self.

Winter Fuel Payment update: Thousands MORE pensioners to lose £300 energy bill support under Scotland rule change
Pensioners in Scotland are in for a rough winter as the government shifts to a means-tested Winter Fuel Payment, limiting the £300 support to only those on low incomes. This change comes amid rising deficits, mirroring the UK's own financial woes.

The shift means one million older households may find themselves without vital energy bill assistance. Urgent calls for benefits awareness and a social energy tariff go unanswered as cuts loom large.

Behind Tim Walz's 'Hunter' Facade Is A Plan To Take Your Guns
Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota claims to advocate for Second Amendment protections while pushing for regulations he mischaracterizes, like "weapons of war." His assertions about assault rifles and CDC research are laden with inaccuracies, likely aimed at furthering gun control agendas.

Despite Walz's narrative, semi-automatic weapons operate no differently than hunting rifles, and the data show stricter regulations have little effect on crime. His desire for private gun transfer checks hints at a national registry, reminiscent of overseas gun bans.
