Washougal resident Anthony Teso pushes back on a Washington Policy Center column, arguing that Senate Bill 5041 does not destabilize the unemployment trust fund and that striking workers drawing benefits are drawing on their own deferred wages, not employer funds. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/letter-a-strike-is-the-withdrawal-of-labor-in-a-dispute-the-employer-co-produces-at-the-bargaining-table/ #Opinion #SB5041 #LaborRights #UnemploymentBenefits #WashingtonState #StrikingWorkers #ClarkCounty #Politics #Washougal #CollectiveBargaining ---

Veronique de Rugy warns that Social Security faces a 2032 deadline when trust fund assets will be depleted. Without reform, benefits could be cut by 22%.

In a shocking exposé, this episode delves into the inner workings of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and their plans to control the country. The speaker reveals the faces behind the movement, including trust fund babies who have never had to work for their wealth, and exposes their disturbing pasts. From the vetting process of Grand Platner, a candidate with a history of domestic violence and a Nazi tattoo, to the DSA's platform, which includes eliminating the US Senate and state-wide elections, this episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the future of America. The DSA's plans are nothing short of revolutionary, aiming to replace the president and the Supreme Court with an executive branch and judiciary chosen by Congress. They also want to extend full voting rights to criminal convicts and illegals, and implement universal rent control, which has already led to a housing shortage in New York City. The speaker highlights the hypocrisy of these individuals, who claim to care about the working class but are actually pushing policies that will benefit themselves and their wealthy donors. The episode also explores the backgrounds of key figures in the DSA, including Morris Katz, a 27-year-old trust fund baby who helped recruit Grand Platner and has a history of questionable behavior. Daniel Morath, another key figure, has been accused of sexual misconduct and has a reputation for being the "most hated staffer" in the region. These individuals are using their wealth and influence to push a radical agenda that will control the lives of ordinary Americans. If you're concerned about the future of America and the direction of the Democratic Party, this episode is a must-listen.

Social Security Is in Bad Shape. Does It Still Make Sense to Wait? Episode 391 – The new Social Security Trustees Report is out, and as usual, the news is not good. If the two Trust Funds were combined, they are projected to be insolvent in the third quarter of 2034. Is that enough of a reason to consider collecting earlier? More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 391 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: Social Security is in bad shape. Does it still make sense to wait? As you may have heard, the U.S. Department of Treasury released its 2026 Social Security and Medicare Trustees Reports on June 9. Neither program is doing particularly well, but the Social Security Trust Funds seem to be getting the most attention. There are two Social Security Trust Funds: one for retirement and one for disability. According to the 2026 report, the retirement fund, or the “Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund,” will run out of money during the fourth quarter of 2032. The other (smaller) fund, the “Disability Insurance Trust Fund,” is in a much stronger position than it was a few years ago. The current report projects that this one will be able to pay 100 percent of total scheduled benefits at least through the year 2100.[1] There's a certain amount of public confusion over the projected finances of the two funds. The two funds are separate entities and cannot be combined into one without a change in the law. But if they did get combined, and many people assume they eventually will be, the resulting mega-fund is projected to last until the third quarter of 2034. From that point forward, they would only be able to pay approximately 83 percent of the scheduled benefits.[2] There have been a number of proposed “fixes” to the Social Security problem. Right now, there are two approaches that seem to be getting the most attention: raising taxes and reducing benefits. One of the suggested ways of raising taxes is increasing or eliminating the Social Security “cap,” which is $184,500 in 2026.[3] If your wages exceed this amount, the Social Security withholding of 6.2 percent for the employee, plus 6.2 percent for the employer, no longer applies. Above that amount, there is no withholding, nor is there any benefit that would be payable from it. Note that unlike Social Security, Medicare's withholding of 1.45 percent has no upper limit. When it comes to benefit reductions, the most common suggestion is to increase Full Retirement Age, or FRA. FRA, the age at which you receive your full, unreduced Social Security benefit, is currently age 67. The belief is that, since people are living significantly longer than they were years ago, extending FRA is a sensible way to “fix” the Social Security Trust Funds. It remains unclear which solution will eventually win out. When Congress last took on this issue back in 1983, the result was a combination of both: an increase in withholding taxes and an extension of Full Retirement Age. Either way, the prevailing thought is that they will eventually do something to fix it, one way or the other. Given the popularity of Social Security among America's seniors, it seems unlikely that they will ever allow that projected 17 percent reduction in benefits to take place.[4] But what if they're wrong, and the projected drop actually occurs? Should that possibility be a significant factor in your claiming decision? In most cases, no. The logical response seems to be that if Social Security benefits are reduced by 17 percent in 2034, it would be a good reason to claim earlier, correct? In other words, it would make more sense to start collecting as early as possible, say age 62, before the benefit is reduced. Keep in mind how the math works. If you start at 62, you're collecting five years ahead of schedule, but the tradeoff is a 30 percent lifetime reduction. So, while you get off to a head start, at some point you'll be better off waiting, assuming you live long enough. A quick analysis indicates that the breakeven occurs around age 79. So, if you live past that age, you're theoretically better off waiting, although there are some other factors, such as cost-of-living adjustments and the time value of money, that you may want to consider. The same thing applies to delaying when you collect. You have the option of waiting until after Full Retirement Age, possibly as late as age 70. The incentive is an 8 percent per year increase. Survivor benefits can also play a big role in the calculation. For a married couple where both are past FRA, the survivor benefit is basically the higher of the two. So, if I'm collecting $3,000 per month and my wife is collecting $1,000 per month, if something happens to me, she would “step up” to the $3,000 per month benefit. When doing the analysis, this becomes a potential reason for me to delay collecting, especially if she has a longer life expectancy than I do or is at least a few years younger than me. And don't forget about the Earnings Test. Your benefit could be temporarily reduced if you collect before FRA and continue to work, earning over a certain amount in wages. For 2026, that amount is $24,480, and the benefit reduction is $1 for every $2 over.[5] In some circumstances, that makes it impractical to collect before FRA, even if that's what you would prefer. Confused yet? Imagine how people feel when they add in the potential 17 percent benefit cut in 2034. How could that potentially impact your decision? There are no simple answers, of course. But just understand that the projected cut, if it happens, would be across the board. In other words, if you wait until age 70, even if your benefit is reduced, it will still be 24 percent higher than it would have been had you collected at 67. So, when it comes to your decision, the effect of a potential insolvency of the Trust Funds is limited. David Blanchette, Head of Retirement Research at Prudential Financial, has studied this issue in detail. His conclusion is that when you assume a potential benefit cut, the math is different, but not very much.[6] Other factors, such as life expectancy, survivor benefits and cost-of-living adjustments, could play a bigger role. Other academic studies have reached a similar conclusion.[7] In many—but not all—cases, whatever works best before what could be called “Social Security doomsday” will still be the best choice afterwards, whether we actually see that day or not. Every case is different, but one possible exception might be someone with a shorter life expectancy.  In that case, collecting as early as possible might make sense.

He clarifies that the program is a pay-as-you-go system where current workers fund retirees. Sternbergdiscusses the political difficulty of reform, suggesting private accounts as a viable alternative for younger generations. (5)

PROVERBS: Trust Fund- Proverbs 11:24-28 w/Darren Tyler

A hundred and thirty-six pages. That is the length of the probate petition Nick Reiner just filed to force the release of over $1.5 million from the trust fund Rob and Michele Reiner created for their children. He wants the money for a high-powered defense attorney. He wants it for soap and socks. And he wants it before a conviction can trigger the one law designed to stop him.California's slayer statute says if you intentionally and feloniously kill someone, you do not inherit from them. Not a dollar. Not from the trust. Not from the estate. If Nick Reiner is convicted, the door slams shut. Everything goes to Jake and Romy. So what does Nick do? He files now. He demands the court compel immediate release. He calls the distributions “mandatory and unconditional.” He claims the trustee is using a “shifting series of excuses.” And his petition includes this line: “No use of his funds could be more important.” His legal team is arguing that the charges against him — the charges that he killed his own mother and father — are the reason to speed up the payout, not slow it down. Tony Brueski walks through the petition, the family's decision to cut Nick off, the legal framework that could block every cent, and the pattern of behavior that makes this filing the most predictable move Nick Reiner has ever made. His siblings already said no. The trustee already said no. This episode explains what happens when the only person who has never accepted a no tries to override everyone who has.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports on a financial shortfall warning for Social Security.

Social Security retirement benefits are projected to undergo an automatic reduction of 24% by late 2032 unless Congress takes action to prevent the depletion of the program's trust fund. A recent analysis conducted in June 2026 by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget indicates that the insolvency of the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) Trust Fund may occur slightly earlier than previously anticipated. At that point, ongoing payroll tax revenues are expected to cover only about 76% to 77% of the scheduled payouts.The average monthly reduction for retirees across the nation could be approximately $500.The average annual impact may result in a reduction of around $18,100 for a typical dual-income retired couple. The total economic impact translates to an immediate annual loss of $345 billion, affecting over 15% of the population in 47 states.The anticipated depletion date has been advanced due to declining birth rates, slower wage growth in relation to the economy, and the legislative effects of recent policy changes. Notably, increased spending from the Social Security Fairness Act—which expanded benefits for about 3 million government pension recipients—and tax code modifications from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act have hastened the drawdown of the trust fund.Since this reduction is a statutory consequence of an exhausted fund rather than a permanent cessation of the program, it is imperative for lawmakers to enact reforms to avert these cuts.Revenue Increases: Policymakers might consider eliminating or raising the current payroll tax earnings cap to impose taxes on high earners, or increasing the overall payroll tax rate of 12.4%.Benefit Adjustments: Congress could modify future cost-of-living calculations or gradually raise the full retirement age for younger generations. Proactive Financial Preparations include diversifying savings by maximizing contributions to options such as traditional or Roth IRAs and employer-sponsored 401(k) plans.Delaying claims: Postponing the filing of claims beyond the full retirement age can trigger delayed retirement credits, which would permanently enhance the baseline monthly benefit.

Marc walks through why mandatory distribution ages (25/35/45) destroy asset protection in a divorce or lawsuit, and Brett breaks down the specific incentive structure he wrote into his own trust — including matching his kids' tax-return earnings into approved investments and splitting the estate into separate buckets so the super-achiever and the artist are both treated fairly.This is the section of estate planning that most attorneys never bring up.TIMESTAMPS0:00 The Trust Fund Baby Mentality0:35 Why Achievers Get Penalized By Standard Trusts1:25 Who Actually Decides — A Judge, Not You1:55 The 25/35/45 Distribution Trap2:25 The Divorce + Lawsuit Worst Case3:05 Brett's Tax-Return Matching Trust Design3:40 The Super-Achiever vs. The Artist Problem4:15 Three Separate Buckets — One Per Kid4:35 Why Brett Refused Mandatory Distribution AgesWORK WITH MARCDearth Law: https://dearthlaw.comMarc on the web: https://dearthlaw.com/aboutGET CONNECTEDWebsite: www.BeWealthy.comYouTube: youtube.com/@bewealthybrettInstagram: instagram.com/bewealthybrettFacebook: facebook.com/brettbewealthyX/Twitter: x.com/bewealthybrettFREE RESOURCESFree Tools & Downloads: https://www.bewealthybrett.com/resourcesCost Segregation Studies & 45L Tax Credit: SingleFamilyCostSeg.comInfinite Banking Education: SaveLikeaBank.comSelf-Directed IRA: MaxOutRetirement.comTrust & Entity Structure: SetupMyEstate.comOff-Market Deals & Direct Mail: TheMagicMailers.com1031 Exchange: Exchange1031Now.comBookkeeping & Financial Services: BooksOffMyPlate.comPPC & Digital Marketing for RE Investors: ScaleMyDeals.comABOUT THE SHOWThe Be Wealthy Podcast brings entrepreneurs the strategies to grow their business — then teaches them how to think about their money.

Collins reflects on his long-standing skepticism of Social Security, only to find it surprisingly robust as he nears eligibility. By walking through the history, mechanics, and current realities of the system, including its $2.7 trillion Trust Fund, Collins dispels common fears and explains why the benefits are still far more solid than many assume. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://jlcollinsnh.com/2013/01/29/social-security-how-secure-and-when-to-take-it/ Quotes to ponder: "It is important to understand that any time you invest money, that money gets spent." "Cash is a really lousy way to hold money long-term. Little by little it gets destroyed by inflation." "All my financial planning has been based on the idea that if it wasn't, no problem. If it was, that would be a pleasant surprise." Episode references: AARP: https://www.aarp.org Social Security: https://www.ssa.gov Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Trust Fund — Pastor Jason Burns In this message, Pastor Jason unpacks what the Bible really teaches about money, generosity, and trust. Rather than letting fear or greed call the shots, we're invited to see generosity as a reflection of who truly has our hearts.

It is busy time, to say the least, for Libby Cantrill, Head of Public Policy at PIMCO. Today's markets are grappling with vast uncertainties…in US fiscal policy, in Fed independence and leadership, in geopolitics, and in global trade. Libby is charged with helping both the clients and risk-takers of PIMCO better understand the implications of policy that is changing rapidly.Through her conversations with institutional, retail, and international clients, she outlines how uncertainty around US policy has become a central driver of investor concern early in 2026. Our discussion highlights how recent geopolitical developments — including tensions with Europe, rhetoric around Greenland, and renewed trade disputes — have amplified questions around US credibility and global leadership.Throughout the conversation, Libby frames the current environment as one in which policy volatility, rather than policy outcomes alone, is shaping investor behavior. Tariffs, fiscal deficits, and election-driven incentives have created a backdrop where markets must continuously reassess tail risks.We explore the challenge of reigning in US entitlements. Here, she describes two potential forcing mechanisms: bond market pressure or looming entitlement shortfalls. While the so-called bond vigilantes have periodically re-emerged, she notes that market selloffs have thus far been contained, suggesting that investors continue to grant the U.S. substantial runway. At the same time, projected shortfalls in the Trust Fund later this decade represent a political and economic inflection point that may eventually compel action.I hope you enjoy this episode of the Alpha Exchange, my conversation with Libby Cantrill.

THE URGENCY OF SOCIAL SECURITY REFORM Colleague Veronique de Rugy, Mercatus Center. Veronique de Rugy argues Social Security must be reformed before trust funds run dry in the 2030s. She contends the system unfairly redistributes wealth from young workers to increasingly wealthy seniors and advocates for capping benefits or means-testing rather than raising taxes or allowing across-the-board cuts.
