NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Gutting Social Security isn’t ‘efficient’ — it’s a broken promise. Democrats and Republicans should stand up and fight back to protect it. Social Security is not charity. Americans pay in, paycheck after paycheck, over a lifetime of hard work. When they get older, they get that money back to help them retire.

Gretchen Whitmer, D-Mich., said she regrets hiding her face during a meeting with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office last week.  Whitmer poked fun at the now-viral moment by once again holding folders up in front of her face when asked about her trip to Washington, D.C., during an event at the Detroit Economic Club on Monday.  ‘… I don’t want my picture taken, that’s all it was. I kind of wished I...
