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!

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Congressional Republicans who vote yes for this shameful, corrupt bill: You are cowards who've dishonored your oath & betrayed Americans. You've turned your back on NOT ONLY the poorest and otherwise most vulnerable...

MAGA politicians have zero empathy for the plight of ordinary Americans who depend on these programs.

If Trump pardons Derek Chauvin, it will only be to distract us, and further divide us.
Then blame us for the civil unrest.
Then declare an emergency.
Then arrest us without due process.
Then send us away.
Don't take the bait.

Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild:
📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices
📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices
📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices
Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

Please consider calling your 2 U.S. senators TODAY to ask for a "no" on the crypto bill (GENIUS Act). Blocking that could help slow down some of Trump's corruption.
TODAY: We need every Senate Democrat to vote no on a crypto bill that would enable Trump to keep accepting bribes from billionaires, corporations, and foreign governments. We can block S.394 if Democrats unite in opposition, but they’re not there yet, so make sure your senators hear from you ASAP. 👇

RFK Jr.’s idea: Shifting “regular” food inspections to the states; FDA focusing on “high risk” inspections like baby formula and overseas food. Looks good on paper but the states don’t have the money with budget cuts, or manpower to do that. Thus fewer inspections overall, especially in red states.

Two former Wells Fargo executives were fined $8.5M by the Biden administration for covering up the bank's infamous fake account scandal.
Trump just slashed those fines to a paltry $150,000 after Wells Fargo gave $1M to his inauguration.
