The new acting head of Social Security got the job because he'd been feeding our social security information to Musk all along as well as sending harassing emails to employees in the agency’s personnel and security divisions who were trying to protect our info. www.joemygod.com/2025/02/new-...

We are not going to be silenced, and we are not going to allow Elon Musk and Donald Trump to attack Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security without strong opposition from Democrats in Congress.

Leland Dudek, a data analyst working in a small anti-fraud office, was suspected of sharing unauthorized access to information with representatives of Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service. Now he’s the acting Social Security commissioner. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

We need a class action suit against Elon Musk for transferring our Social Security data to his private server. I want him in prison!

MEGA Trump fucking MANIPULATED YOU, robbed you, fired you, cut your Social Security, gave Elon Musk your personal data, cut your healthcare, took food assistance, put grandma out the nursing home and spit on your family’s futures. Join the resistance and STAND TF UP.

Republicans are very definitely going to try to end Social Security as we know it. What I imagine that means is everyone under ~55 is out, something like that. The good news is, this is such a wild overplaying of their hand, it might help jump start the pushback to them ending democracy.

I would rather have air traffic controllers, Park Rangers, Cancer Research and Social Security than a $5000 check from DOGE

Right? Trump's DOJ lawyers said straight-up in an official court filing that Musk was NOT an employee of DOGE and has "no actual or formal authority." So ignore the shit out of his bullshit tweets and threats. He ain't the boss of you.. www.cbsnews.com/news/elon-mu...

The truth is post-coup was the time to figure out “what comes next after a party abandons democracy” and we decided to just give them a mulligan .

I just realized Elon thinks Twitter is a success. He utterly destroyed a product then called it a W because his personal experience improved. And now he's going to do that to a whole country.

He has zero new ideas. It’s also noteworthy that the thing he’s copying is “actions that caused the largest decrease in corporate value in the world during an economic boom.”

NEW: Managers across the government bewildered by OPM email; some initially told workers not to respond, fearing it might be a phishing attempt. Workers, including civilian military personnel, are in some cases being told being told to await further guidance. This is from @brbarrett.bsky.social

It's hard to laugh at it but a kind of bleakly funny throughline in all this is that it's being overseen by people who 1) have never had any kind of real job, 2) don't know what these particular jobs are or might entail and haven't asked, and 3) are absolutely convinced that they are fake.
