France got it right in 1789 😎🇫🇷✊

Fwiw, Robespierre will always be a hero of mine, but even he thought it was getting a bit too much

Good beginning, then went off the rails leading to Napoleon

It’s apparent that in order to cut benefits the Musk Administration can accomplish this through staff reductions, demolishing the system. And it will take years to work its way through the courts and we will have no recourse

Never trust a word that comes out of the mouth of a liar!https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-says-social-security-won-210612362.html

WAKE UP, PEOPLE! Understand what they are doing with OUR hard earned money we have paid into Social Security all our hardworking years. Cutting it to pay the rich.

I’ve paid in for more that 40 years and so have millions of other Americans, so if they think they’re just gonna pull this out from under us, they’re wildly mistaken.

jonbanquer.bsky.social•32 days ago

What do you plan to do about it?

nonnieida.bsky.social•32 days ago

Class action lawsuit.

nonnieida.bsky.social•32 days ago

Of about 70 million.

jonbanquer.bsky.social•32 days ago

Lawsuits take insane amounts of time. Supreme Court is corrupt and compromised.

woodbrook.bsky.social•31 days ago

It took 33 years for a clique of extreme right-wing Republicans to get total control of the Federal govt. They knew it would take decades of hard work but that didn't deter them & that's how they won. We now are many more than they were but sill won't happen overnight. No reason not to start now.

jonbanquer.bsky.social•31 days ago

Make GOP senators and representatives afraid of their constituents they're fucking over. I'm talking very afraid as in more afraid of their constituents than Trump.

jonbanquer.bsky.social•31 days ago

We need protests at GOP senators and representatives offices now, not more lawsuits

Let elderly and sick people in wheelchairs and on stretchers block entrances to GOP offices and get arrested just like what happened when the GOP tried to cancel Obamacare.

Obviously, MAGA morons are not very bright, otherwise this orange idiot would be behind bars where he belongs.

climateboomer.bsky.social•32 days ago

What are the chances that they will selectively cut benefits and slow checks for blue states and cities, while shoveling benefits to the red states?

patchygroundfog.bsky.social•30 days ago

I wondered if the SocSec database would be cross-checked with voter rolls. If #traitorMusk can hack voting machines, they can do this, too. Tho they didn't seem to know about COBOL and the "150 year olds" collecting soc sec. 🙄 1/2

patchygroundfog.bsky.social•30 days ago

FYI I was sweating getting a ck this month but it hit my bank last night. I was going to pay bills today, but will wait until mañana or Mon. when it is actually recorded. I don't want mass overdrafts. 2/2

poochpest.bsky.social•31 days ago

Don's say "MAGA." EVERY Republican in the House voted for this. Except the one who wanted MORE cut.

drkrismohandie.bsky.social•32 days ago

I look forward to when the starving and angry masses come for them. They will be hunting leopards.

pjonkerhoffren.bsky.social•32 days ago

Yes, and they certainly won't only be Democrats.

sanderson0412.bsky.social•32 days ago

And they think the government & other layoffs are deserved because of slacking

jonbanquer.bsky.social•32 days ago

People on Social Security in wheelchairs and on stretchers need to block entrances to Senator Mike Crapo's office and get arrested just like what happened when the GOP tried to cancel Obamacare.

frmrnewsshootr.bsky.social•32 days ago

That’s what brainwashing does.

briansantacruz.bsky.social•32 days ago

Luigi where are you

metta4u2.bsky.social•32 days ago

there's just no accounting for stupid anymore...

beekind70.bsky.social•32 days ago

The brainwashed, hoodwinked fools for believing a thug felon who is a pathological liar. This will hurt them too.🙄

bdplayer81.bsky.social•32 days ago

My Wife was listening to Ron Johnson's call in town hall and a guy called in to ask why Social Security is off the table with regards to fraud, waste, etc... He said he thinks there's fraud because there were young people in the Social Security office when he was there filling out his paperwork.

humanitariangal.bsky.social•32 days ago

FFS! The dumbing down of America really worked. #TheLongGame

bdplayer81.bsky.social•32 days ago

Like he thinks those young people who are able bodied were signing up to get social security. Never mind that there are other reasons to go to the local office.

wisedan.bsky.social•32 days ago

Fraud my ass! Their their supposed to protect it not steal it! Just add whatever to the fucking debt they’ve already stolen from & pay us our money!

wisedan.bsky.social•32 days ago

So Congress is the fraudsters like their fucking President & I want charges arrest convictions of all their asses’

wisedan.bsky.social•32 days ago

Well I know I’ve paid all my life into it & it’s my money & I want my cash back! Here’s a thought for you if there’s fraud I don’t care the motherfuckers in Congress are are responsible for it & I still want my motherfucking money!

windi64.bsky.social•32 days ago

I hope the magaTs know how to get a library card so they can use the 'net' to get to SS. It's easy AF, but I am going to make a natural assumption that non of them collecting SS every did that via the internet, and no one is gonna be answering phones for a while.....

warren-gates.bsky.social•32 days ago

this will be a self-imposed death wish for all who take part in any endeavor to diminish these benefits.

jonbanquer.bsky.social•32 days ago

A good start to the elderly and the sick fighting back would be making life hell at GOP senators and representatives' offices. Let people in wheelchairs and on stretchers block entrances to GOP offices and get arrested just like what happened when the GOP tried to cancel Obamacare.
