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!

Crypto guys who said "Bitcoin is recession-proof" never considered what would happen in practice.
When recreational Bitcoin holders had real money evaporate, it caused them to pull money out of the imaginary money market and into real cash to buy real things, causing a crash.
In short: Duh-doy.

There's a quirk about American politics we're all missing, and we talk past each other because of it.
Since the election of 2000, every contest has been so close that any theory that explains about 100,000 votes spread over 3 swing states can and does explain the outcome.
Every theory is correct.

Utterly unconscionable – though hardly surprising – for the New York Times to print such vile fabrications, completely untethered from empirical reality, and to keep platforming a man who would spread such extremist propaganda as one of their most prominent columnists.

The lady profiled in the story overstayed her visa because she couldn't fly back to Peru during the pandemic
there isn’t a big list of “likely criminals who are also here without proper visa/docs/whatever” with pics and addresses. there is however a big list of people who have tried to navigate our kafka-esque immigration system in good faith, and sometimes some of them have slipped up.

Crucial memo shared with me that was sent out to all Department of Justice staffers tonight from Attorney General Pam Bondi:
![Office of the Attorney General
Washington, D.C. 20530
March 11, 2025
MEMORANDUM FOR ALL DEPARTMENT EMPLOYEES
FROM: THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
SUBJECT: ENDING PROCUREMENT OF PAPER STRAWS
President Trump recognized that there has been "[a]n irrational campaign against plastic straws” that has led to the forced use of nonfunctional, more expensive, and potentially hazardous, paper straws. The Department stands with the President in rejecting these misguided efforts.
On February 10, 2025, President Trump issued an Executive Order, Ending Procurement and Forced Use of Paper Straws (Feb. 10, 2025), that restores reason, saves money, and protects human health and the environment by making clear that it is "the Policy of the United States to end the use of paper straws." The Executive Order additionally directed the heads of executive departments and agencies to "take all appropriate action to eliminate the procurement of paper straws and otherwise ensure that paper straws are no longer provided within agency buildings" and to "take appropriate action to eliminate policies designed to disfavor plastic straws."
In accordance with President Trump's direction, it is the policy of the Department to eliminate the procurement and provision of paper straws. The Justice Management Division (and other Department components, if applicable) shall take appropriate action to eliminate the procurement of paper straws and ensure that paper straws are no longer provided within Department buildings. Department components shall take appropriate action to identify and eliminate any portion of policy or guidance documents designed to disfavor plastic straws.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ejihld4sywvvqwe67cdkn4jq/bafkreie5p33dnb4kjxzsdbr6nbvq4qna2xrpelb54ldg6nhxkvylvusnnq@jpeg)
