Long waits, waves of calls, web crashes: Social Security is breaking down A flood of cuts led by Elon Musk has sent the agency into chaos as a new commissioner prepares to take charge.

They are breaking Social Security, because they do not like Social Security.

The Signal Betrayal: A National Security Breach That Demands Accountability My comments on Laura Coats Live

Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow.

Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand .

Letter carriers rally in Boston and nationally against dismantling the Postal Service - The Boston Globe Sunday's rallies took place as the Trump administration prepares to cut 10,000 workers and billions of dollars from the postal service.

“People in rural areas might not get any service... It isn’t just a service, it’s a lifeline. For 250 years, this institution has been here and we’re not going to let anyone take that from us.”

“It is real, and it’s historic. We won’t let them take that away”

Law firms refuse to represent Trump opponents in the wake of his attacks The result is an extraordinary threat to constitutional rights of due process and representation and a far weaker effort to challenge Trump’s actions in court than during his first term.

A come-to-Jesus moment for American lawyers, and for America's most important law firms.

This is it.

This is the moment you always imagined, where you told yourself you would do the right thing -- where you told yourself that your profession would stand up.

Moments ago, Donald Trump signed a massive voter suppression executive order. This will not stand. We will sue.

Wall Street Fears Trump Will Wreck the Soft Landing The economy’s pilot has a new message: Fasten your seat belts. “He is telling us, in everything he is doing, that he is not kidding around.”

"Economists at JPMorgan Chase said Monday that the risk of a recession had edged up to 40% from 30% owing to 'extreme U.S. policies'.”

'This is very much a man-made situation,' said the chief investment officer at Key Private Bank."

A lot can happen in five months. 🇺🇸

Today at a Foreign Affairs Committee briefing on USAID I asked Trump's head of USAID Pete Marocco, as the overseer of democracy and free elections programming globally, whether he was at the Capitol on January 6th.

He refused to say no.

The richest person in the world—born into wealth and given every opportunity—wants to "eliminate" the Social Security benefits you and your family have worked hard for.

Musk & Trump will never need Social Security benefits to make ends meet. They don't think you need them either.

The. Stock. Market. Is. Tanking. Because. Trump’s. Tariffs. Are. Asinine.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Trumpty Dumpty wanted a crown…a bedtime story written and read by John Lithgow.
Enjoy.

Medicaid is not for sale.
NASA is not for sale.
The Post Office is not for sale.
America is not for sale.

We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Found some peace in this.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

I work in higher ed. This growing trend is very concerning. I understand why universities have to hit pause, but this latest EO by the White House will set back research & innovation in the U.S. by decades if it stands.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president
