In a live broadcast on Facebook, former Congressmen Bill Lipinski and former Chicago City Hall reporter Ray Hanania discuss the lack of strong leadership in America and the pathetic choice for president of former President Donald Trump who is consumed in 91 indictments, controversy and his own petty political concerns and President Joe Biden who doesn't seem to know where he is or what he is doing except from the scripts handed to him at infrequent press conferences.

Isn't there a strong voice alternative for Americans and why aren't American voters clamoring for a stronger new leadership?

 

Also, Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie of the 4th District has reintroduced his legislation to eliminate federal taxation on Social Security, which is taxed when it is collected and taxed again when it is paid out ... part of the problem is that the Social Secrity payments have increased although they rarely keep pace with the increases in inflation and most people who get social security still must have other income or another job ... the combination of the incomes forces them to pay federal income taxes on 85 percent of their social security which is wrong ... Massie is a republican and the bill was only introduced by other republicans, mostly the radical far right like Gatez and Boebert ... why are Democrats not supporting Seniors and a crackdown on taxing social security?
