Social Security payments have a 99.7% accuracy rate. Every penny is accounted for by the Social Security Trustees. Elon Musk is spreading lies about Social Security because he wants to gut the program that middle-class Americans rely on for retirement. In eastern CT, 164,000 residents are collecting their earned benefits every month.

I just watched the whole RFK Jr—Hannity interview where they discuss measles. I don't know what to say. I'm really just speechless. Listening to health leadership bungle basic facts at best—and tell outright lies about long-settled science at worst—is just SO disappointing.

As the Department of Education has just been told to vacate the building by 6PM this afternoon, here's a reminder from George Carlin on why they are dismantling Education in this country. “The don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking… that doesn’t help them. That’s against their interests. They want obedient workers. The want people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passively except all theses increasingly shittier jobs… And now they are coming for your social security money”

Elon Musk has made it clear that he thinks Social Security is a “Ponzi scheme” relied upon by “parasites.” It’s clear now that he and President Trump are trying to take away the money YOU earned.

Sen. Mark Kelly on Elon Musk calling him a traitor: “When I was flying over Iraq getting shot or flying in the space shuttle, never once for a second did I think somewhere down the road, somebody's going to call me a traitor." He says he heard from several Republican colleagues privately about it.

Elon Musk spent $280 million to elect Donald Trump, and Donald Trump has given him the keys to the federal government. It's the most corrupt bargain in American history and we need to shut it down NOW.

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House, and they want you to believe Democrats are the ones shutting the government down.

Let's cut the crap: If Ukraine falls, American safety is at risk. If Elon thinks standing with Ukraine makes me a traitor, then he knows nothing about keeping America safe.

We've abdicated our duty by allowing Mr. Musk and DOGE to run unchecked through our government's systems. Accountability among government agencies is OUR job as the Congress. @DOGE #Congress

USDA cancels $1 Billion in local food purchasing for schools, food banks States will not receive 2025 funding for schools to buy food from nearby farms. This will hurt kids, schools, and farmers. Will not make America great. politico.com/news/2025/03/10… politico.com/news/2025/03/10…
