One of my main goals when I started TPMCafe was to provide a bigger forum for the sort of information gathering and investigative journalism we did here at TPM in recent months on Social Security, the DeLay Rule, et al.
Now that we’ve got the site up-and-running, a staffer hired and a battery of volunteer researcher-writers in the process of being picked, we’re going to dig into it.
First up, catching up on Social Security.
As you can see here, our Conscience Caucus list hasn’t been updated since way back on March 3rd. A lot has happened in the last six months. Most of them good, certainly. But just recently the phase-out crew has begun making some initials forays out of their cave with the new plan to blow the entire Social Security surplus and the Trust Fund on those prized private accounts.
So we’re going to dive back into that. We’ll be moving the list over to a new library section of TPMCafe, updating it, adding new materials, and more.
If you’d like to be involved in helping us pull new information together, let us know.
Next up after that, Tom DeLay, Jack Abramoff, Bob Ney, Karl Rove and more.
