Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true.

Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that.

It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.
Hi, I think a lot of us received e-mails from SSA saying that social security will no longer be taxed - and that somehow there is "enhanced deductions" (how much enhancement can you make to 0?) for those over 65. What part, if any, of this is true? Thank you!

it’s absurd that NYT forced him to delete these skeets, which … convey the factual information that Zohran Mamdani is, in fact, a man of South Asian descent who was born and raised in Africa, and that the pseudonymous source of the hacked material is a white supremacist eugenicist.

I will watch this.
A new documentary about my old sketch troupe "The State" will be premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival this June. I haven't seen it yet but I'm assuming I look very handsome.

I expect this to be common over the next year.
I got home today to my wife crying. She's #T1D, diagnosed when she was 7. She was informed that our co-pay for insulin jumped from $35 to $168, our insurance rep said the price hike was due to "changes with the federal government".

We'll manage, but I worry about T1D families who can't.

Elie is right.
THIS AMERICAN DOES NOT WANT YOU TO WORK TOGETHER WITH A FUCKING FASCIST TO FIND COMMON GROUND ON WHICH PARTS OF DEMOCRACY WE NO LONGER NEED
"It is very clear that, if there is a middle of all of this hot mess of division, Americans want us to work together when we can and find common ground," Sen. Amy Klobuchar tells the Opinion writer Michelle Cottle.

You never know how a small act you do today may impact the rest of history. Maybe someday my barf will help science!

Good thing they ruled this way. They'd have to make the courtrooms a lot bigger. #elephants

David Lynch’s “most uncanny talent,” Howard Fishman writes, was his “ability to plug into the socket of our collective unconscious, generating sparks that light up the dark of our waking lives, offering glimpses of the great unknown we carry within.”

I just ordered a new case/clip for my T:slim X2 pump. It is one of Tandem's from Amazon but then I read the reviews after and saw a lot of people saying the clip breaks easily, which is the whole reason I'm buying a new one. Any recommendations for cases? #tandem #t:slim #insulinpump #type1diabetes
