NICE - something? 4/30/25 Ranking Minority Member of House Oversight Congressman Connolly VA sent 100 letters to Trump Admin for failure to respond to previous letters on transparency, DOGE, sensitive data, layoffs, emails…etc Reply by 5/14 (never) oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

SSA PRESS RELEASE 4/29/25 Nothing new, no permanent Field Offices closures, phones, firings. Overpayments no longer 10%. Didn’t say it’s now 100%. So a $2,000 overpayment that was SSA FAULT, see ya $2,000 not $200 of your next check, you get ZERO for their mistakes. www.ssa.gov/news/press/r...

EXECUTIVE ORDERS Words Only *Investigating “straw donor” *common sense truck driving *protecting law enforcement from law suits *restoring seafood competitiveness - all fish equal? Reality - He’s *losing in courts *losing public (protests) *losing ballot box www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

LAWSUITS VS TRUMP There’s 210 lawsuits, 206 active, actually 100+ higher/student visa holders 1 case We are NOT losing these and they are NOT defying most. Trump policies being reversed, District Court losses, preliminary injunctions won. KEEP THEM IN COURT www.justsecurity.org/107087/track...

SSA FIELD OFFICE CLOSURES There’s 11 out of 1,230 Field Offices. Two articles in last 24 hrs about “former SSA Martin O’Malley says major disruptions”. 1) This same story keeps being repeated for 6 weeks now 2) 50K is LESS than 75K employees. I think? www.ssa.gov/agency/emerg...

Trump wants to get rid of the “pork”. He did, 12,000 tons of pork that was supposed to go to China. Who hasn’t felt all of this yet, Alzheimer’s funding, tariffs, deportations, Federal job cuts, children, entire world. Judiciary targeting to amp up soon may be next. apple.news/AX9W2GIg1S_W...

Ziva misses this old furniture, new house, no more renting, new start. She’s my youngest by a lot, she’ll be fine.

I need to hear, get transcript for this case. Not just SCOTUS, but I’d like to ask Gov. Walz about this, maybe no input? KY has this girl who needs help with all ADLs and other accommodations in Special Needs. They move to MN who DENIES her help. Fed Funding issue also. apple.news/AsXXISPdAQbK...

SSA FIELD OFFICE CLOSURES There’s 13 out of 1,230+,37 tele-call centers, 169 Hearing Offices and 10 Regional Offices. Do not believe media telling you any different. www.ssa.gov/agency/emerg...

SSA PRESS RELEASES April 25 Good 4 AM Bluesky, in new house in new state, lots of work. Two of them, one their new secure Digital ID and second an appointed Operations Deputy Commissioner. He has 25+ yrs in SSA many in leadership. No more Dudek, “big balls” BFF? www.ssa.gov/news/press/r...

Next? KIDS Trump’s asking 9th Circuit for "en banc" review of 3-judge panel District Court ruling, gives funding to rep children in immigration cases. Less than 2% are given. It is usually used for complex cases, an ELEVEN Judge panel will hear the case. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Executive Orders CANNOT repeal laws. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination in federally funded programs and activities. Title VI is a law enacted by Congress. TOTAL BS - GOP needs to wake up NOW or why have a Congress? Racist POS www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

SS PRESS RELEASE 4/22 It’s “SS Month”, Biden, DEI, “sky high wait times, unconscionable delays”. REALLY? 15% short staffed, get rid of 7,000 more will HELP THIS? “help access benefits online, phones” (insert puke) 17yrs I quit because of DOGE. SICK JOKE RELEASE www.ssa.gov/news/press/r...
