I have had issues & been hearing from people having trouble just ACCESSING their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access.

Trump & Musk are:
-Lying about Social Security fraud
-Making destructive cuts to SSA staffing and phone-based services
-Threatening the security of people's personal information by giving DOGE access to sensitive SSA data
Social Security is in crisis entirely due to them.

Donald Trump cannot cancel the 2026 elections. But he can make it very difficult for them to be free and fair. His executive order is aimed at doing just that.
Here is my promise: We are going to sue to stop him and we will win.

DOGE has repeatedly failed to find evidence of widespread Social Security fraud.
So why does the Trump regime keep bringing it up?
It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires a giant tax cut.

I paid in to social security all my life. It is MY money. Anyone who takes it is stealing from me. It’s criminal and they won’t get away with it. Piss off a bunch of seniors and see what you get.

Donald Trump’s billionaire Commerce Secretary has financial advice for Americans:
1. Please buy Tesla stock to help poor Elon Musk.
2. Shut up and don’t complain when you don’t get your Social Security check.

Trump’s Commerce Secretary just said seniors shouldn’t “call and complain” if they stop getting their Social Security checks: “A fraudster always makes the loudest noise screaming and complaining.”

So Howard Lutnick said that if his mother in law’s social security check failed to arrive, she wouldn’t complain. She probably just puts it in her petty cash drawer.
But for many, no social security check can be an existential crisis, and faced with such a crisis, they may get very… creative.

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
