Elon’s plan is to label our earned Social Security benefits as “waste” while DOGE employees make six-figure salaries. Shameful.

So here's a fun fact. If Congress can't agree on a new budget, Trump can't legally do any new programs that weren't appropriated funds under Biden. For him to try is the opposite of impoundment (which is also illegal); it's a straight Anti-Deficiency Act violation. Extending the CR doesn't count.

Union email just came through. Acting commissioner Dudek is rumored to have requested a plan to reduce SSA staff by 50%. While this is unconfirmed, I cannot stress enough how devastating this would be for the millions of people who depend on us. This would cripple our ability to serve the public. 💔

Mark Alford (R-MO): Elon Musk has contracts with the federal government, but he is also, I think, doing an effective job at weeding out the waste, abuse, and fraud in the government. Constituents: BOOO!!! SHOW ME!!! CONFLICT OF INTEREST!!! HE IS THE WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE!!!

It was a rough week. I had to put my cat to sleep in the early hours of Monday morning at the emergency vet. My brother had to put one of his dogs down later in the day. Monday also would have been my parents' wedding anniversary if they were still alive. I hope they're taking care of both animals.
