Trump and DOGE are dismantling Social Security— firing thousands of SSA employees and shuttering offices. Why? Because they don't want one of the govt's most successful programs to work. They want to pave the way for privatization so Wall Street can gamble with our retirement.

A bunch of twenty something DOGE staffers are deciding that phone support for the Social Security Admin is unnecessary. This will be the first step to cuts & skipped checks. If they can silence those with complaints & missing checks they can ignore them.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

The FBI is trying to criminalize Habitat for Humanity for receiving climate grants from the EPA. Yes, the nonprofit that builds houses for low-income people. This clearly demonstrates just how absurd and extreme the Trump regime has become. It's targeted harassment.
