Just when you can't decide if the worst man in America is Trump or Musk, Howard Lutnick comes along.

I have been hearing from people that they have been having issues 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. Please share!

hey protesters, I'm hearing that the police can confiscate your phone and (legally) open it via biometrics--facial recognition or fingerprint but that they cannot compel you to give up your passcode w/o a warrant

Anyone have a list / timeline for when the various members of #surrendercaucus are up for reelection?
