Barack Obama is once again circumventing the legislative process in order to push his administration’s unpopular leftist agenda. First, it was illegal immigration, then transgender bathrooms. This time, it’s guns.
Earlier this year, the White House announced new policies for those receiving social security benefits in conjunction with the president’s January 5th executive order on gun ownership. When it was released, few seemed to notice that the order allowed the administration to withhold Second Amendment rights from those who collect social security.
The move makes little logical sense. Social Security beneficiaries have never proven themselves as particularly violent or incapable of gun ownership. Instead, it seems as if this is part of Obama’s larger plan to slowly and surreptitiously restrict gun ownership whenever and wherever possible.
The administration was likely hoping that this slow creep of new regulations would go unnoticed until it was too late to be repealed. Fortunately, the watchful eyes of conservative media caught them in the act.

I had insurance that I couldn’t even use before Obamacare and now I can. Now you say they are going to repeal and and replace? It’s more like they are going to repeal and say$#%&!@*you or repeal and replace it with a higher rate just to$#%&!@*ya. Not sure how that is a better solution.
He just keeps on digging that hole where all his executive actions are gonna go on January 21st….his “legacy” will be buried so deep that he probably will not be recognized as a president in about 10 years.
See grafic “$” pic? Webster defined: TAL’ENT, n. [L. talentum; Gr. to bear, allied to L. tollo. The word is said to have originally signified a balance or scales.]
1. Among the ancients, a weight, and a coin. The true value of the talent cannot well be ascertained, but it is known that it was different among different nations. The Attic Talent, the weight, contained 60 Attic minae, or 6000 Attic drachmae, equal to 56 pounds, eleven ounces, English troy weight. The mina being reckoned equal to f3 4s.7d. sterling, or fourteen dollars and a third nearly, the talent was of the value of f193 15s sterling, about $861 dollars. Other computations make it f225 sterling.
The Romans had the great talent and the little talent; the great talent is computed to be equal to f99 6s. 8d. sterling, and the little talent to f75 sterling.
2. Talent, among the Hebrews, was also a gold coin, the same with a shekel of gold; called also stater, and weighing only four drachmas.
But the Hebrew talent of silver, called cicar, was equivalent to three thousand shekels, or one hundred and thirteen pounds, ten ounces and a fraction, troy weight.
3. Faculty; natural gift or endowment; a metaphorical application of the word, said to be borrowed from the Scriptural parable of the talents. Matt.25.
He is chiefly to be considered in his three different talents, as a critic, a satirist, and a writer of odes.
‘Tis not my talent to conceal my thoughts.
4. Eminent abilities; superior genius; as, he is a man of talents.
[Talent, in the singular, is sometimes used in a like sense.]
5. Particular faculty; skill. He has a talent at drawing.
6. [Sp. talante, manner of performing any thing, will, disposition.] Quality; disposition.)( SHEK’EL, n. [Heb. to way; Low L. siclus.] An ancient weight and coin among the Jews and other nations of the same stock. Dr. Arbuthnot makes the weight to have been equal to 9 pennyweights, 2 4/7 grains, Troy weight, and the value of 2s. 3 3/8d. sterling, or about half a dollar. Others make its value 2s. 6d. sterling. The golden shekel was worth 1. 16. 6. pounds sterling, about $8, 12. )( TEND’ER, n. [from tend.] One that attends or takes care of; a nurse.
1. A small vessel employed to attend a larger one for supplying her with provisions and other stores, or to convey intelligence and the like.
2. In law, an offer, either of money to pay a debt, or of service to be performed, in order to save a penalty or forfeiture which would be incurred by non-payment or non-performance; as the tender of rent due, or of the amount of a note or bond with interest. To constitute a legal tender, such money must be offered as the law prescribes; the offer of bank notes is not a legal tender. So also the tender must be at the time and place where the rent or debt ought to be paid, and it must be to the full amount due.
There is also a tender of issue in pleadings, a tender of an oath, &c.
3. Any offer for acceptance. The gentleman made me a tender of his services.
4. The thing offered. This money is not a legal tender.
5. Regard; kind concern. [Not in use.]
TEND’ER, v.t. [L. tendo.]
1. To offer in words; or to exhibit or present for acceptance.
All conditions, all minds tender down
Their service to lord Timon.
2. To hold; to esteem.
Tender yourself more dearly. [Not in use.]
3. To offer in payment or satisfaction of a demand, for saving a penalty or forfeiture; as, to tender the amount of rent or debt.

Tell Obama and the idiots that are with him to go$#%&!@*off and die.
Dream on$#%&!@*
Oh, geez- what I took from this was that Social security will now report those people who have a mental health issue, and are a danger to themselves or unable to manage their own affairs. Seems pretty common sense to me!
David Breyer ” Racist ” is a term used by the morally and ethically bankrupt liberals when they are on the losing end of an argument . My daughter is married to a Mexican National with a permanent green card . My brother is married to a second generation American Latino . My cousins Denise , Agnes , and Delores are married to Black Americans . We celebrate birthdays , anniversaries , and just plain get together and barbecue for fun and enjoyment . If that makes me racist , then I guess you are right. And your accusation under these circumstances makes you a bastard sumbitch liberal crybaby in desperate need of a severe beating ! Go kick yo momma right square in the$#%&!@*for not strangling you in the crib !
Thats unconstitutional. Why isnt this moron impeached
Older Americans need a weapon for protection more than anyone else.
