Workers making under $184,500 pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate. Millionaires pay 2.2%. Billionaires like Trump and Musk? 0.0002%. And in six years, retired workers face a 24% cut to their benefits. @murray.senate.gov called it out: this is not a fair system. She's right.

A record 4.5 million Americans are tapping their 401(k)s early, paying penalties just to cover basic needs as costs climb. The administration calls it a "booming economy," but when families can't make ends meet without raiding their retirement, something isn't adding up. Our people deserve better.

Since our launch of Reveille & Rally, millions of Americans have opened their eyes to the real role of the Guard. It's simple: serve the country, not a party. When that line blurs, we all pay the price. Help us keep it that way. reveilleandrally.com

"I'm trying to figure out what issues I can work across the aisle and compromise. But I'm also thinking what are the issues where I should never compromise. Where I'm going to stand up for values I believe in." @slotkin.senate.gov This is what holding your values over party & donor lines looks like.

While Americans stretch every dollar at the pump, Trump interrupted a discussion on gas prices to talk about his own statue. Real leaders work for the people. They don't hijack the moment for themselves.

From a federal judge blocking RFK Jr. to Israel invading Lebanon, NATO rejecting Trump, and the Epstein net closing in on Bondi. War, courts, and accountability defined this week. Take a closer look at what happened.

Our troops deserve a mission, not a moving target. 6 Americans have already paid the ultimate price. Ask this admin what the goal is and you get a different answer every day. Even Pete Hegseth can't give a straight answer. This isn't leadership. It's improvisation with American lives.

A president's duty isn't just defending borders, it's defending the people within them. Cutting entitlements isn't fiscal responsibility, it's abandonment. A nation is only as strong as the citizens within it. Invest in people, invest in America.

Trump's adviser calls surging credit card spending proof the economy is thriving. Debt isn't a sign of a booming economy, it's often a sign of struggle. Are Americans truly flourishing, or just trying to keep up?

It's been quite the week: $11B has been spent on the Iran war in 7 days, more Epstein files are released, our troops are under fire, and Hegseth has been blowing millions of tax dollars on luxury items. Check out the headlines to see what happened this week.

Kash Patel stood before journalists to defend himself against allegations of excessive drinking, then called the press 'fake news mafia.' That's not strength. That's someone who doesn't want to answer the question. Accountability isn't partisan.

This bears repeating .....👇 Murray: ..."So, [there's] a 12.4% tax for people making less than $184,000, ... but 2.2% for a millionaire or .0002% for billionaires."

In 2020, EVs made up just 4% of all car sales globally. Their share rose to 25% in 2025 – and is set to grow close to 30% this year. And by 2035, even without any new policy announcements, EVs could account for about half of global car sales 👉 iea.li/49UkWCh
