After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services.
This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage.
Keep up the fight.

We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

Like most bullies, Trump can be constrained only if everyone stands up to his bullying. Go to town halls. Tell your local media to report on DOGE cuts in your community. Keep speaking out. The fight against authoritarianism will take all of us — and we can't relent.

#DnD Advice: Pay attention to what your players engage with the most in a game, and try to expand upon those elements.

Wow—this is the first in-depth public account from a Social Security exec about the DOGE takeover at SSA. It’s scary.
It’s a must-read if SSA has your most sensitive data…yes, that means you.
