The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

This reminds me of a woman who was talking about “knowing me.” We followed each other on Twitter, but were not friends. We were at a few of the same public events over 20 years ago, but not together, and I don’t know that we even ever had a conversation. She wasn’t even an “acquaintance.”

Trump may have intervened to help “I am absolutely a misogynist,” and alleged human trafficker with multiple SA allegations, Andrew Tate. Probably considering him for a cabinet position or advisor on women’s health /s www.cbsnews.com/news/andrew-...

Left: the headline they want you to see. Because *who would object to terminating people being naughty with each other in the work chat? Right: it’s not so simple. “Political messages” is a red flag. It’s likely some were legitimately misbehaving, & that was used as cover to purge non-MAGA staff.

After being subjected to years of insults from Donald Trump and an official "DEI investigation" from Trump's new FCC commissioner, MSNBC fired the first Black woman to host a primetime Cable news show. Happy Black History Month!

A newfound RESPECT for @maddow.msnbc.com for keeping it real about what’s going on at MSNBC and how she really feels about it. She didn’t have to say this, but I’m so glad she did. Take 2 minutes… (1 of 2)

Wow…I had to double, triple check to make sure this tweet from Senator Smith was real. Rare to see a US Senator tweet like this. Not complaining, just surprising.
