The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.
If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Hey, sorry you lost your job and your 401K is getting wrecked.
Good news is Trump bought a Tesla on national TV from his biggest donor and the richest guy in the world.
Hope it helps.

In order to actually cut $1 trillion from the budget you are going to need massive cuts to programs like Social Security.

Take people's social security or Medicare from them and it won't be bullets politicians will be fearing, it'll be bombs.
People paid into this system all their lives. You can't just yank that out from under them and expect to wake up tomorrow.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.
Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.
Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.
Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

In 1964-65 humans created Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, and Head Start. If you want to 'make America great again,' maybe revisit the era when you actually acted like you cared.
