I am worried that Novachock may have finished you off - either through infection, or a midnight attack on a jugular while you were sleeping. Update if you can, please and thank you TwinnyMcTwins

Ted Cruz Admits Trump Accounts Are Designed to Privatize Social Security Over Time

 from Common Dreams

Republican Sen. Ted Cruz said during a public conference this week that the so-called Trump Accounts established under the GOP’s 2025 budget law represent a viable path toward Social Security privatization—something the Texas lawmaker described as a “dirty little secret.”

During a panel discussion at the Milken Institute Global Conference in California, Cruz said that “conservatives in America, for 50 years... have been trying to do Social Security personal accounts.” Cruz, who lamented the failure of Bush-era efforts to privatize Social Security, described such personal accounts as vehicles into which the payroll taxes that finance current Social Security benefits could be diverted.

In the not-too-distant future, Cruz envisioned, “we’re going to be able to go to parents and say, ‘Hey, you know that Trump Account your kid has? ...

Tehran blasts US’s ‘reckless military adventure’ in Hormuz

from al Jazeera

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says “Iranians never bow to pressure” and “every time a diplomatic solution is on the table the US opts for a reckless military adventure” after new US attacks.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the United States is expecting a response from Tehran on its latest peace proposal at some point today.

The United States and Iran traded naval attacks in the Strait of Hormuz with the US also bombing two Iranian ports.

Israel continues to attack southern Lebanon killing at least 20 people, including a paramedic, in one of the deadliest days since the war with Hezbollah broke out on March 2.
