We-the-people, not Trump, not Musk, are still in control and the overwhelming majority will be forced to see our commonality and act together. Despair ends now!

@kenmartin.bsky.social Why aren’t you posting on here EVERYDAY??? Just heard you were coming to Texas but you’re not posting what you’re doing and where you’re going!?! So far you are lacking in the communication department. Which is one of the reasons I opposed you becoming chair among others.

Musk & DOGE are now f*cking with the Social Security Administration. 🚨 IMPORTANT: If you or a loved one experience delayed SS payments or difficulty accessing SSDI services, CALL THE PEOPLE’S HOTLINE! Tell your story. ☎️ 503-212-4600 ☎️ Pass it on:

Great, Elmo Mush is fucking with the Social Security admin apparently. It was already hard enough to get service and the Disability process was already agonizingly slow when I went thru it. With layoffs, office closures, etc. it's only going to get worse. Thanks MAGA morons.
