🚨 BIG NEWS‼️ I’m honored to share that I was sworn in this week as Head of Strategic and Digital Communications at the U.S. Social Security Administration! 🇺🇸 It’s a privilege to serve in President Trump’s historic administration under the leadership of the 18th Commissioner of @SocialSecurity, Frank J. Bisignano. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this administration’s work on behalf of the American people. Social Security touches the lives of nearly every American, and that responsibility shapes everything we do. I’m excited to develop and execute strategies that help SSA communicate clearly and better connect Americans with the services and information available to them. Grateful for the trust placed in me, proud to serve, and ready to get to work! 🙏🇺🇸❤️💙🤍

NEW from my colleague @ajsaeedy- reporting details how the current CEO of the IRS and head of the Social Security Administration Frank Bisignano was known within JPMorgan as someone who spies on his colleagues From Saeedy's reporting "At the bank, people familiar with the matter said, he spied on fellow executives—using his authority over the security department and position to access sensitive information and internal communications without an apparent business justification." wsj.com/finance/banking/irs-…
NEW: Frank Bisignano, the head of the Internal Revenue Service and Social Security Administration, sits atop two government organizations that store vast reams of sensitive financial data about every taxpayer. But when he was the co-chief operating officer at JPMorgan Chase, he spied on fellow executives—using his authority over the security department and position to access sensitive information and internal communications, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke with the Wall Street Journal. After years of complaints about his behavior, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon told Bisignano he would support him finding a job elsewhere. Once he left, investigators from the legal department found digital traces of the spying activity, including records that showed email access, and the bank instituted new rules requiring approval from the legal department Courtney Forrest, an attorney for Bisignano, denied that that he never spied on co-workers. She said he “never directed anyone to look through any employee’s or executive’s communications or engaged in any form of surveillance.”

250 years ago today, a group of colonists put a dangerous idea into words: that freedom isn't granted by anyone. It's yours to begin with. Every year since has been an argument over how to live up to that. The argument is the point. It's how the promise stays alive. 250 years in, still worth the work. Happy Fourth! 🇺🇸 #IndependenceDay #July4th #America250

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.? Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Today, we pause to remember the lives taken and forever changed by the Oklahoma City bombing on April 19, 1995. Among those lost were 16 dedicated SSA employees, whose dedication and service to the American people will never be forgotten. Read more in our latest blog post: ow.ly/kPIp50YLnLr

With a net approval rating of -43, Donald Trump has surpassed Richard Nixon's final approval rating of -42 to become the most unpopular president in modern history. Nixon posted his eye-popping -42 net approval in the final poll of his presidency, between 8/2-8/5 of 1974.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Trump's net approval rating is -16 per polling average, not -43. Nixon's final net approval was -42 (24% approve, 66% disapprove). natesilver.net/p/trump-approv… presidency.ucsb.edu/statistics/dat…

This is EXACTLY why we’ve been sounding the alarm since SSA Commissioner Frank Bisignano removed data on wait times from the agency’s website after DOGE’s mass layoffs. FEWER STAFF = LONGER WAIT TIMES FOR SOCIAL SECURITY SERVICES! @The19thNews

Bisignano, who is also the SSA commissioner, won't talk about Social Security today. “I’m the CEO of the IRS in this hearing.”

The best commentary I’ve seen on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was something like “Life asked nothing of him, and he couldn’t even manage that.” He could’ve spent his life drunkenly bouncing between country houses and the VIP section at events. Even that was too much.
