Nothing will end Trump's reign of terror faster than fucking with Social Security. Especially given that every claim Musk and the incels has made about Social Security is an easily provable lie. Even the most MAGA of MAGA Republicans will find their offices mobbed by angry seniors looking for blood. And if they want to save their own hides, they'll turn on Trump...or more likely Musk.
Well I'm 85 now & even tho I mostly do not go out these days - there are some things that could get me out there to make a huge stink - and touching my only means of survival is one of them !!!! WE PAID INTO THE SSEC FUND FOR MANY YEARS - THAT IS NOT THEIR MONEY TO STEAL !!!!! ps - yes I DO know they actually stole those funds many years ago - so it's all only IOU's now, but they are VALID IOU's of our paid-for funds !!!!!
You’re so right. You worked hard, they took your money with the promise of payback after you stopped working. It’s an entitlement program only to the extent that you’re entitled to get back what you were promised. No one should me messing around with this. Stay strong ! ! !

"So, what needs to be done to keep America safe from enemies from within?
Enough people on both sides of the aisle with the integrity, backbone, and character structure required to enforce the laws that make democracy and freedom possible, who understand that extraordinary times require extraordinary skill in applying the laws and who possess the self-understanding to fight off the twin temptations of complicity or cowardice in the face of fear caused by an organized attack on cherished institutions that protect our freedom. Organized criminal activity aimed at undercutting democracy requires an organized, lawful, aggressive response."
Keep calling Attorneys General in the states. Ask them to protect you and your data/privacy, and to keep federally mandated monies flowing to your states and communities. For those in the 19 states that brought the successful Treasury suit this weekend thank them and encourage them to keep going. I still believe these 19 states should make criminal referrals of Musk/his posse to DOJ/FBI this week, and raise the stakes.
◦ Keep calling to stop Musk's crime spree and assault on the US government. Encourage your Senators and Reps to file a criminal referral for him and his malicious posse to DOJ/FBI. Feel free to add that you would like funding for USAID restored so our government does not kill millions and millions of people this year in our name.
nsist they fight to challenge and rollback Trump's tariffs which will raise prices here, strain our alliances, undermine the rules-based global order and make us a rogue, pariah nation. This is all particularly true as new data tells us the American economy is slowing, inflation is rising and consumer sentiment is dropping, There is perhaps no greater Trumpian betrayal of America than these tariffs. For more background, see this post which includes my recent interview with leading economist Dr. Rob Shapiro.
Lets your electeds know you are outraged by traitorous Trump's selling out of Zelenskyy, abandonment of Europe and embrace of Putin; and that we cannot accept this level of appeasement of someone who is a clear enemy of America and the West, not an ally. Demand that Trump not 1et his Saudi meeting w/Putin become our Munich; demand that he not become our Neville Chamberlain.
The problem is the tRump Regime controls DOJ. There can be no investigation until an honest and conscientious AG is in place. If we survive, we are going have to set DOJ and the IGs up as separate from the executive branch with their own oversight and control commission. And it is apparent we need a relatively rapid mechanism to remove a rogue executive. We likely need enough amendments to really consider a rewrite. The Constitution needs real teeth.

The exact same thing happened under Reagan. I spent many days and over $1000 hiring a lawyer to get my disabled sister back on her deserved SS payments. These rich, nasty Republicans are shite headed liars preying on the weakest. That is who they are and always have been.
Like SNAP and Medicaid, Republicans will demand a work requirement for Social Security benefits--oh, wait--there already is one. Maybe a work requirement for unemployment insurance? What is all this fascination on the Right with work requirements? When someone has fallen down, you don't demand "walk requirements" before lending a begrudging hand.
He’s crazy minions believe the garbage. He’s playbook has been attack the system cause distrust and burn it down. These people who are wealthy. Taking money we have earned for years. I don’t know what you call it. But when I went to school. It’s called stealing. I never hated people so much as the wealthy. They want to take our measly checks when they have millions of dollars for tax cuts. Something is wrong with this picture. If such a thing goes through. I can see many court cases. As far as I’m concerned it’s illegal. But the President has immunity. So I don’t know if it can actually be fought in the courts.
Exactly - they might have made it '666' or '999' but they chose '150' for some reason ! Just a coding decision for their own system purposes that's all ! I really don't know why the Republicans seem hell-bent on demonstrating to the world just how STUPID & IGNORANT they are - small minds with spiteful behavior every time !
OMG trump makes stuff up and is Actually Acting on those"Lies"!!! Hundreds of thousands of people are going to become homeless?! What the Hell ?! As I've said (and you know me, Dean) Welcome to Trumpistan 😱😩 Great article this morning ☕ and will reStack ASAP 🙏
I believe tRamp is acting on orders not only from his control, Vlad Putin, but from the heritage foundation and its "project 2025", and its goal of establishing a christo-fascist oligarchy. We are well on our way, unfortunately, as this time tRamp knows how to get around the laws and built in safeguards/separation of powers, along with the SCOTUS giving him absolute immunity. He can claim all of this are "official acts"...
I'm very protective of Social Security because my late mother relied on it as a lifeline after my father died. In her memory, I will never stop fighting to protect Social Security from people like Trump/Musk/GOP who want to end this program!
I realize that this is stating the obvious, but 77,284,118 American voters somehow thought that it would be no problem to put a morally bankrupt pathological liar, grifter, thief and con man at the head of our government with essentially full immunity and no guardrails.
71.6 million Americans currently receive Social Security and SSI benefits. Based on demographic analysis of the election results it's a safe bet that more than half of them voted MAGA. It's a tragic admission of the unmitigated immorality of our nation that most only care about malignant cruelty and unfairness when it directly affects them, but with a heavy heart I do agree that this could be that "bridge too far".
When a car gets old we stop fixing it and instead recycle the car. Old people are just things to elon and trump so like cars they want to stop spending money on them. How do you recycle old people? Is elon getting into the soylent green business?

Mess with a penny of my Social Security? FAFO!
That is what Im hoping that people rise up in ways not seen since 1776!
I’m ready for civil disobedience right now!!
I'm ready for less-than-civil disobedience.

They’re all lying to us! This is an abomination for our country and democracy!!
The abomination is trump himself!
He’s going to blame others, just watch.
Yes, truly an abomination!

100%. Resist or it will persist. ✊🇺🇸😎
Stating he is “king” now
Someone needs to get that FFOTUS out of there
To the psych ward at a minimum
He better not mess with my SS
More like the electric chair.
The exact same thing happened under Reagan. I spent many days and over $1000 hiring a lawyer to get my disabled sister back on her deserved SS payments. These rich, nasty Republicans are shite headed liars preying on the weakest. That is who they are and always have been.
They are terrible people, no doubt about it.

Keep everyone poor & stupid from forced birth through forced work until death. People are suckers & losers to them. So sad.
