I was quoted by @cbsnews.com @aimeepicchi.bsky.social about #SSA partial walk back of their overpayment claw back. It's better, but a lot of #SocialSecurity beneficiaries will have difficulty paying for basic living expenses. @ncpssm.bsky.social www.cbsnews.com/news/social-...
Social Security to reduce overpayment clawbacks to 50%, down from 100%
The Social Security Administration said it will now seek to recoup less money from beneficiaries. Advocates say the revised policy is still burdensome.

Part of the long term Fox/GOP campaign to portray cities as urban hellscapes. I am riding a DC Metrorail train as I write this! Much faster commute to/from work + no traffic.
I’m a big man who rides the subway every night because I’m not a terrified hysterical neurotic
Sean Duffy: "The truth is, transit across America is dangerous. And these liberals -- liberal mayors -- they want everybody out of cars and into trains but they made the trains unsafe so nobody really wants to ride them ... even big men don't want to ride the subway at those times of night."

Before President Donald Trump started mass layoffs of federal workers, he demonized them, arguing, despite evidence to the contrary, that most of them never went into the office.
