Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

It might work if the goal is to turn the government into a festering cesspool of disfunction, so I guess his post fits his agenda.

I'm starting to think that the Russia thing wasn't a hoax.

A relative has experienced a significant medical emergency, which required open heart surgery to address. While the surgery was successful, he has been informed his insurance does not cover the procedure. Looking for effective $raising ideas 💡

A quick update: Thank you for all the prayers and positive energy. Happily, both surgeries have been completed and were successful. It's still a bit of a trek to full recovery and some fundraising may be needed to sustain that journey to success, but things are looking up.

Thank you to all who sent prayers and good thoughts my way this last week or so. Happy to report all surgeries were successful and the family is beginning to recover.

In a much needed break, I am watching the first SNL. I actually remember some of it from having snuck out of bed to watch it as a kid when it was on the first time. Surreal, but cool.

Thank you for the good energy ❤️ We still have the stress of 2 major cardiac surgeries next week to get through, but everyone is stable for now.

Big prayers please. An already dire medical situation just got even more serious, and I feel completely helpless to do anything to help.

This is just one of thousands of harrowing stories told about the U.S. Government abandoning Americans abroad in the USAID shutdown. This is Benghazi times a million. 1/

DOGE Staffer Is Trying to Reroute FEMA Funds open.substack.com/pub/dropsite...

Protect this law at all costs ! www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

How can insurance call cardiac bypass ELECTIVE for a 90% blockage? Elective? He wants to live, not get a nose job ffs 😠

Have any of the lawsuits about Doge data theft questioned why coders and hackers are doing audits instead of accountants?

Not my fault Threads banned my post I shared about project 2025 to warning everyone and I tried fighting harder to get attention… Threads fuck you that so disgusting why banned for? People have to right know what Trump’s planning ofc project 2025.

Sounds like corporate welfare to me.

It's stunning to watch people who depend on government programs in order to live cheer for the dismantling of those same government programs. Do they think there's some special exemption for them?

Repost. Vote. Resist.

A teen DOGE staffer recently given access to government systems worked at a startup known for hiring convicted hackers. Someone using a Telegram handle associated with him also solicited a cyberattack-for-hire service in 2022. All raising questions about his vetting. www.wired.com/story/edward...

Andy Biggs helped plan January 6, according to Ali Alexander. He should be in federal prison, probably for the rest of his natural life. But Merrick Garland had to play politics first, so instead tens of millions of workers will lose all safety protections at work. That the size of it, basically?

Are you better off today than you were 16 days ago? No, you are not. Don’t try to gaslight me.

Hey everyone. It’s Feb 3rd, and the Democrats have been at home since Jan 24th because the house is out of session. They should have come back, the place is on fire. Get suing, messaging, demonstrating, speaking, everything and ANYTHING

A private citizen, with the backing of the President, illegally shut down a major government agency over the weekend and it is not on the front page of this morning's New York Times @peterbakernyt.bsky.social

NEW: I'm hearing from federal employees that they're being told to file a FOIA request if they want their employee records. Meaning they've been locked out of their records and have to file a Freedom of Information Act Request to get them. If you got this email, please contact me. Signal in bio.

FYI: if I ever stop making podcasts without first telling you I’m going to stop, it’s because someone else stopped me.

I know there's a lot of horrors going on, but if anyone has any spare good thoughts, prayers, or positive energy for my family, we sure could use it.

She senses I plan to go out soon. Not having it.

hey question, is this bad?

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

Next thing you know, he will change the mountain's name to Denial.

“If the freeze is not stopped, I might lose my house." Some NSF-funded postdocs are having trouble paying rent and credit card bills because their salaries were paused this week, even though the federal funding freeze memo was rescinded. www.statnews.com/2025/01/30/t...

Borrowed the screenshot from a friend. We won't fully understand the cause of the accident last night until after the investigation is complete, but I'm sure none of this helps air safety.

Hey Jim- You were the best that @cnn.com had to offer & will be deeply missed! I look forward to the next chapter in your career & I'm not just saying that because of the killer Yoda impression you did when I was on your show.

Hey guys! I’ve started something new. My new Substack… Go check it out! jimacosta.substack.com/p/hold-on-to...

I’m proud to call the amazing cartoonist Ed Wexler a friend.

While we may face repercussions for this, the truth lies in the metadata. Memos to federal employees are being authored by individuals with ties to Project 2025. You can verify this yourself.

Kind of interesting to see some of my Facebook friends moving here. I have been following them, but most don't seem to recognize me on here.

Taking the chance to just unwind tonight. Son went back to his home, cat is doing better, mom is resting well at her new place, I think I got all the leaks fixed from a pipe freeze last week, and I don't work for 12 more hours. I'm not going to ruin it by looking at the news.
