In 2020, when I told people that I was building a pro-democracy media outlet, people thought I was kidding.

When I told them it was because the fight for democracy was the fight of our time, they thought I was being overly dramatic.

Well...here we are.

If you yelled "Lock Her Up" about Hillary's emails

But you won't say "Lock Them Up" about Michael Waltz and Pete Hegseth and their Signal chats and Gmail

Then you don't actually care about America at all

1. The Social Security Administration and DOGE are GASLIGHTING AMERICANS.

They are telling millions of beneficiaries that reports they were closing SSA field offices were fake news.

Actually, these closures were PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED and LEASES WERE CANCELED.

🧵
How the Social Security Administration and DOGE are gaslighting Americans
The Social Security Administration (SSA) sent an email on March 27 to beneficiaries saying that reports that field offices were closing was an invention of fake news media.

I have been hearing from people that they have been having issues accessing their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please share!

People are waking up to just how bad things are with co-presidents Trump & Musk and Republicans running Congress.

We don’t have to wait for midterms—we can win special elections now. We’ve been here before and won.

HEADS UP! We need to give this story more attention. This is the next phase - investigations of those who criticize Trump, Musk or SCOTUS. It’s already started. It is a campaign of intimidation designed to silence criticism.
