Surely no one will care about this and there will be absolutely no backlash at all.

"The Social Security Administration is rushing cuts to phone services at the White House's request, the agency's acting commissioner told Social Security advocates in a meeting on Monday, two sources who attended tell Axios."

My daughter needs to replace her card for a new job and waited on the phone for an hour and 45 minutes before hanging up to make an online appt. This is what she got for that

Some of these folks have nothing but time. I think this is a huge miscalculation on their part into just how much damage they can do

If Democrats are on the ball, they will make sure every single person in America knows why Social Security is now unreachable.

If the media are on the ball they will do their jobs and make sure every single person in America knows why socials security is now unreachable. Quit passing the buck to Dems and Do your job.

How the fuck is this not the responsibility (and also extremely good politics) for elected Democrats to make hay about?

This is epic levels of excusing them for not doing the basics of their jobs.

It is the media’s job to inform the public. Yes it’s good politics, but it’s not their job. Their job is to govern.

I'm retired.

“Newspapers 4 life”

Also “i’m retired”

What a joke

csanborn21.bsky.social•2 days ago

Good to know that you lost all contact with friends and colleagues and have no way of influencing or criticizing media short comings. I guess retirement is just “this is the dems fault” on repeat.
There could not be a better representation of our current media than this response. Absolute failures.

And, tired.

csanborn21.bsky.social•2 days ago

I’m tired too. Tired of the media pretending like it’s not their job to inform the public. Tired of the media spending time and resources on what the dems aren’t doing instead of what republicans are doing. I’m tired of them normalizing these actions. I’m tired of them not taking any responsibility.

It is the perfect way to 'cut' Social Security - make it impossible for people to sign-up for benefits. And don't forget, that same system is used when it is time to sign-up for Medicare. I've written my useless R congressperson so many times. She doesn't respond. I'll send another tomorrow.
