ALERT: Fascists & media are actively moving the Overton Window around Social Security to where recipients are scorned as 'dead weight'. They are telling young people that their future is being stolen by seniors. It's highly immoral and despicable, but they will do anything to destroy the safety net.
One through 3 are already in the works. And Musk keeps referring to SS as an entitlement, which makes me want to scream. I've paid into it for more than 45 years and the only thing entitled is I’m entitled to get some of my money back!
Is this what Schumer was talking about.
That Trump would call “ emergency” to every vile thing he wanted to do if they were to shutdown the government? And BAM, we couldn’t do anything.

If you are an alum of a college or university has bent the knee to Trump (see Columbia, totally craven) tell you alma mater no donations any more till you stand up and fight
3
You, senator, far as I know can at any time ask GAO to issue reports
maybe you could get on that ?

the critical election for Wisconsin supreme court is on April1st
If you know ANYONE in wisconsin, call, fax, TELEX, email them begging them to vote Democrat to save social security
If the republican wins, the wisconsin supreme court will try very hard to steal the 2026 midterms and 2028 election

2026 midterms are way off, but there are lots of special elections
a lot of people are on top of this; I follow @charlesgaba.com for info

I'm shocked to hear Sen Whithouse on ABC refusing to not acknowledge Schumer's total mismanagement & his inept leadership since 1-20-25. DEMS need new leadership TODAY & leaving Schumer as leader, leaves him to make future mistakes that other DEM leaders wouldn't make.
For me, the larger Schumer mistake is throwing DEMS under the buss on Thursday after coordinating a consistent DEM response to GOP. How much did his book tour or GOP branding "Schumer Shutdown" affect his decision? It's easy to look like a leader with a DEM president. HE MUST BE REPLACED NOW
Elon bringing in his investment advisor will recommend it backed by Crypto. $ disappears. Only reason for crypto is money laundering. Wonder what overseas bank is willing to participate. There was one but betting new one with our new ally. How to forcefullyacquire the countries both mentioned.
Appears DOGE may flag Social Security recipients who are receiving survivor benefits as “fraud”.
Widow who lost her husband will lose benefits.
In many cases, women stopped working to raise a family, man made more money, upon his death she gets the higher amount.
Women stopped working cause the wage was to low plus daycare cost more women stay home to have children! Our husbands worked for that paid, and we did everything else!!
(Six): R's will blame this solely on Democrats. They "have" to do this to "save" social security from those "lazy Dems encouraging SS fraud to their f&f". PR will be intense: Promising raises; stopping Dems from restoring SS that "perpetuates the fraud". Already hearing MAGAs wanting private SS...
Chuck has already "declared victory" on behalf of the GOP on nearly anything by rolling over. Dems need to show unity! That's the number one priority right now. ty
That has always been Maga/Trump tactics- break it and blame it on the others, threaten for compliance or they will break it, lie about what will really happen, take credit for saving a program that you threatened in the first place.
You missed the part where 10 Democrats act like nothing's wrong and give him a budget for 6 more months to spend or not to continue this destruction and 38 decide to not remove the 5 Leaders who failed to put up any resistance
Those that voted for Cloture are all the really wealthy Democrats. They will be fine no matter what. They also are "centrists" which is basically Republican in sheep's clothing
Dems don't have the media reach that rightwing media has. We can help get messaging out. We can help to educate our communities -use our social media, townhalls, letters to ed, discussions with friends/relatives/coworkers, yard signs. Pick one message you can share today with one who could benefit.
Biggest one: the R's did this, not D's. Their opposing PR plan will be intense. They're already blaming Dems for the fake fraud. I'm hearing MAGAs wanting private SS to keep it away from those "fraudulent Dems giving our money to their fam & friends".
That is exactly what they are doing. When they take away SSI, they will have a huge amount of money to give the rich billionaires their tax cuts. While the rest of us watch America fall!
Yup, that's a Trump M.O. from back in 2017 to now. Pretty sure that's same shhht 🍊Wig used on his books at Trump Tower, Taj Mahal, _______ fill in the blank.
I 100% see the possibility of this scenario. But so help me God, if that orange bastard touches my social security, there will be hell to pay. And if Democratic Senator leadership sits by and does nothing, they will feel our wrath as well.
Yes, we know and understand this. Right now, we need to know if @schumer.senate.gov will be removed from senate minority leader. We do not want him in this position as we need someone that will hold firm and not cave to the Republicans. We haven't been contacting and protesting just for funsies.
I agree that the Social Security Administration is not responsible for the improper disclosure of any information that the SSA has provided to me or any information that is on or from my computer or other device, whether due to my negligence or the wrongful acts of others.
WTAF!!? this is different than their previous * I agree that the Social Security Administration is not responsible for the improper disclosure of any information that the Social Security Administration has provided to me, whether due to my negligence or the wrongful acts of others.
Republicans have always tried getting at Social Security since its inception. Why they’ve hated Roosevelt all these years. Remember Bush 2 wanted to privatize a portion. What’s changed? A felon in the White House? Protecting it is a sacred duty.
Don’t forget - he/they decide that SSI for disabled people is a scam, full of fraud & fakers and many, if not everyone on it gets kicked off. And anyone who doesn’t know the difference in SSI and SSDI please go educate yourself
He's using outline to invade Canada, PC, & Greenland. Drug cartals, American safety, fraud...This is an attack on USA Values from ALL angles at once. Since its clear Rep &some Dems won't stop him.What's the bottom before Congress does something? Asking for a few hundred million citizens?
Yes. It is a comprehensive plan by the NRx faction in our government to change the US to techno-feudalism. The tech oligarchs own all
services and we pay them for those services. Autocratic government, not a constitutional republic.
Stop the Steal! This is truly a scary time in our lives. None of us thought we would be fighting fascist idealism in our lifetimes but some how we are! Wake up before it’s too late. Damage to reality is occurring as we sit on our couches watching and betting on sports or the Oscar.
It will be the largest death walk America has ever seen 70 million seniors cut off from our life-saving payments. We will be homeless without healthcare. We will be walking to Washington until they shoot us in the knees like the tyrant wants or we die along the way so much for grandma’s and grandpas
I think you are right and with FOX they will push this propaganda to the brain washed M.A.G.A. I am going be 64 shortly and with Trump destroying my 401K I won't have time to rebuild it before I retire and if they destroy Social Security then I will have nothing to live on. TRUMP IS A LOSER.
Im afraid you may be correct. My next thought is what are Democrats in Congress planning to do about it or is it shrug your shoulders in a "oh well" type of surrender? What's the plan? Do y'all even have one?
Maybe you should go speak with the senate members of your party who voted to enable Trump and the GOP with votes to pass CR. If they remain collaborators, good luck stopping this.
If they’re smart, they won’t even try to take credit or be associated with it in any way. I’ve been hearing people talk about the “Luigi solution” and, at first, it sounded like a joke but I don’t know anymore.
This is exactly the same strategy they are using to privatize education. First they break the public model that was working, then they replace it with a private model.
Pence even wrote the forward for our former PM’s memoir who oversaw this mass cruelty. It’s only a matter of time before Trusk cribs from that playbook
This just infuriates me no end. They are "in there," ar SSA, destroying everything so when they are finally ousted, there's nothing left. Sort of like what happened to USAID. Courts demanding they get out, but too late.

what are concrete things we can do to slow or stop this ?
surely, you, as a US Senator, have some bright staffers who can come up with ideas ?
1
Call your state legislators, and tell them the state AG needs funding for anti Trump lawsuits, and the state may need a special appropriation
If you are an alum of a college or university has bent the knee to Trump (see Columbia, totally craven) tell you alma mater no donations any more till you stand up and fight

services and we pay them for those services. Autocratic government, not a constitutional republic.
When he thought the Republicans in the House would not be able to pass a CR he was all for letting the Government shut down.
When they passed the CR then he was all about the damage Trump could do with the shutdown.
Not leadership, cowardice.
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.
I literally have less than $60 to my name and it's the middle of the fucken month.
There are MANY people like me.
Get those Republicans who oppose Putin on the record!
Impeach. Feathers of Hope. https://jerryweiss.substack.com/p/remove-impeach-impeach
47 is violating court orders now. Our leadershit knew this was coming and they have refuse to even address it out of cowardice.
