SCOOP: The Social Security Administration (SSA) will be shifting its public communication exclusively to X, sources tell WIRED. This comes as agency plans to cut its regional office workforce by roughly 90 percent.

Trump is forcing Americans who are seeking their earned benefits to sign up for Elon Musk's app.
Pure corruption.

The reason that Trump and Bukele don’t want Abrego Garcia back to the US is perhaps because he has been killed or has been tortured beyond recognition. That would be a bad look politically for Trump.
If Garcia makes it back alive, he might write a tell-all book.

How much you wanna bet that soon we’ll find out it’ll cost $100 billion or some such amount to fix everything he broke?
Elon Musk said he’d cut the federal budget by $2 trillion
Quickly lowered this to $1 trillion
Now he’s down to $150 billion
And even THAT appears to be an overestimate of $92 billion
So-after firing thousands of workers and destroying government services
This clown will cut $58 billion
Maybe

On his Truth Social account, Trump claimed that the five million people who protested his agenda last weekend were paid actors; so let’s do the math: 5 million people at $50 each, (the amount Trump pays), would be $250 million.
5 million people is more than the attendance at his two inaugurations

NEW from NBC’s Vaughn Hillyard:
“This week, USAID officials removed the artwork [of the agency’s various global missions] from the walls of USAID offices because…[officials] would be evaluating what appeared on the walls to ensure it aligned with the new administration’s ‘America First’ mission.”

I see that Donald Trump is already trying to take credit for the Gaza ceasefire deal, a deal that was negotiated by Sec. of State, Anthony Blinken. Trump had nothing to do with the negotiations.

America put a man on the moon before either Elon Musk or Vivek Ramaswamy were born. (1971 & 1985.) But they regard themselves so highly they are qualified to lecture us about all things governmental.

On the Wikipedia website, Elon Musk has an incredible impressive resume. If only he didn’t act so silly, he’d get a lot more respect.

I say Biden should pardon Trump; it would be a symbolic power grab, it would make Trump furious, and it would have no effect on Trump’s criminal charges due to the Supreme Court’s decision that Trump is immune anyway.
