Social Security Administration Spending Tops $1 Trillion for First TimeSocial Security Administration Spending Tops $1 Trillion for First Time
In fiscal 2017, real Social Security Administration spending topped $1 trillion for the first time, according data published in the Monthly Treasury Statement.
The Social Security Administration spent a total $1,000,812,000,000 in fiscal 2017, according to the Treasury.
That was about 37 times as much as the Department of State spent during the year ($27,061,000,000), 32 times as much as the Department of Justice ($30,977,000,000), and 20 times as much as the Department of Homeland Security ($50,502,000,000).
The $1,000,812,000,000 spent by the Social Security Administration in fiscal 2017 was also about 76 percent more than the federal government spent on Department of Defense and Military Programs ($568,905,000,000) during the year.

This was actually pretty good.
GOP is fucked. At some point they'll have to abandon Trump because he's destroying the party.

We're doomed. Seems we are well on our way to achieving the cloward-piven strategy (and you need to know what this is when you hear retards using the virtue signaling 'living wage' argument).

Steve Bannon and his allies have a message for sitting Republican senators: Sign up or meet your political death.
When Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., announced with frustration Tuesday that he would discontinue his re-election effort, his became the third "scalp" that the Bannon wing can claim in the past couple of months.
The Bannonites are becoming the big stick of Trumpism, and the Republican establishment elites haven't found effective tools to counter the purge.
Nick Ayers, chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence, said as much to top GOP donors at a recent meeting, according to an audio recording obtained by Politico. "Just imagine the possibilities of what can happen if our entire party unifies behind (Trump)," he said. "If — and this sounds crass — we can purge the handful of people who continue to work to defeat him."
And while Pence is much more aligned with the Koch Brothers' network of donors than Bannon's team, those two centers of power have mutual interests in working to advance Trump's agenda.
But what has changed, according to former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, is that the base found a way to more consistently turn threats into action.
"What Trump has done is weaponize the relationship between the base and the establishment," Steele said. "Now he's been able to back the threats up by executing on those threats. Bannon is (his) weapon."
Can someone explain to me the half trillion in interest payments on treasury securities, and how that's beneficial? That's a fuuuckload of money holy crap
