The Social Security Administration will only conduct public communications via Twitter, Marjorie Taylor Greene made a lot of money because of Trump's tariff change, and NOAA is facing major cuts.
That is exactly the intent. I’m reasonably technology savvy, but don’t have a Twitter account and don’t want one. So many of the senior citizens that live around me in rural Virginia have very limited capabilities with technology. Creating an account on Twitter and then using it for what they need is totally beyond their capabilities.
You do realize this account that you're responding to is not the real Aaron Parnas account? Aaron would never ask you to go to a third site to invest in anything. Please report this account.Ask pretending to be someone else.
I don't understand your reply? Who was compromised? I stated having your personal information on Twitter will be a disaster! Because yes, Twitter has been hacked many times and personal account information stolen. If you can only communicate with the social security department on Twitter, they're going to ask you your personal information like your name, your address, your social security number, your date of birth etc. And it will be compromised on the social media public platform.
I left Twitter a few months ago and not going back. Ridiculous! Musk just wants more people on his site and to make it harder for the elderly. Maybe someone in congress will speak up. Lots of people have left Twitter or X and went to threads or Bluesky. I like threads. More sane people there.
I closed/deleted my Twitter account when Elon took over. I do not want to open a new one. As a recent retiree, the crazy uncertainty caused by this administration is exhausting.
Push back exactly how? To some degree, we are in this mess because people keep commenting that something or other isn’t going to happen. And then it does happen, over and over and over. Democrats still haven’t learned this, never say something won’t happen or can’t happen when you’re talking about the Trump regime.
Many of us have left facebook. A national service needs to communicate centrally first, on a public website, not on social media systems which can be confusing to navigate and rife with crowdsourced responses that can be hard to verify.
it's also cruel & discriminatory as well, I'm not old (60) but, I I don't use a cell phone however, I do have traumatic brain injury & partial paralysis & blindness & having finished my formal schooling well before computers came into common popular use, what little I do know is entirely self-taught so, there remain many functions I'm unable to execute.
I do not have a Twitter/X account and don't want one. Why Twitter/X? Why not Bluesky, or Threads or Instagram? I'll tell you why - because Elon Scumbag Musk owns Twitter and he will then have full knowledge of and access to any questions or problems people are having with their Social Security. This is an absolute invasion of privacy!
According to the .gov website Twitter will be used to inform the American people on changes to Social Security but you don’t have to be subscriber to the network, and Social Security will be available by phone. First of all, why would we trust a platform that is owned by someone who says Social Security is a Ponzi scheme? Are they going to renew muskrats contract? Investigations are needed!
They are aware of this and that’s why they are doing it! Anything to make it impossible to file for social security means they get to pocket the money! Soon social security will end! That is the goal of these satanic politicians 😡😡👺👺I cry every day because we have no authorities in this country who will protect us and stop this domestic violence against the American people 😢
Not only that there is a conflict of interest in that Muskrat gets yet another contract for his efforts and funds towards the election. Where is the oversight on the &1M he was exchanging for votes in the Nov election. Why wasn't foul play alarm sounded??
Threads is a nice site . People are just like us. You have a few smartypants but most are really nice and against trump and what's going on. You can pick who you want to follow. Lots of news people and a few stars I follow. Bluesky is another good one. All kinds of topics to choose your interests your into.
Are you kidding me?Threads is Meta, Meta, is zuckerberg. Aint nothing that zuckerberg do is a nice, everything he does is for profit. No one's personal information should ever be on any social media platform.
My comments on this move by the muskrat/ rapey felon 47 maladministration (which is nothing more than an example of a mafia protection racket ) are basically unprintable . I have never used the “f” bomb and other swear words as much as I do now since the rapey felon was installed.
I am with you on swearing. I have cussed more in the past couple of months than I have my entire life. I overheard my granddaughter telling her cousin that grandma sure has a potty mouth a lot these days, she's 11. I couldn't rebuke her words she spoke the truth.
That is freaking insane! We should not be conducting official government business on BS outside 100% crooked apps. And besides, Seniors don’t use X!!!Most don’t even use computers. And we NEED NOAA! We are so f’ed!! 🤬
The lawsuits are flying as we speak. There is no way that SS will be moved to twitter. This is the most idiotic thing I’ve ever heard of.
And they cannot deport Khalil because of a pro Palestinian protest. A judge will laugh both these cases out. And why is the POS Musk doing in SS anyways? And another thing that will cause a lawsuit is ICE going through SS. This is all fucking bullshit.
"The Social Security Administration assured AARP that they will still allow all claim types to be completed over the telephone. This is great news for Americans all across the country, especially those who would have to travel long distances just to complete some paper work."
So, I don't know how factual either of them are. We know assurances in this admin are worth the paper they're written on, and sometimes less.
I got that same email. So I called AARP and asked them which is true? They said they are fighting for assurance that Twitter will not be used. I wasn't reassured.
Oh, great. So since they have fired half the staff, people have to wait forever to speak with an agent. Good luck. And cuts to NOAA are insane like cuts to the space program. Makes Russia so happy.
You are on the wrongAaron Parnas acct this account is a fake account. Pretending to be him, please report it. Aaron would never ask you for money or to invest in anything!
How is this not a conflict of interest?? Elon owns Twitter and will make money from ads from more users. Elon is a “special government employee “. Or was. Probably will be again.
Have your eyes been opened yet? It’s what I want to say to every American citizen and resident. The news is more and more chilling. I believe it when I read there might be deportation camps. This administration is monstrous and cruel beyond imagination. Trump has been purchased and I’m not certain which country or force paid the highest are the voices of those who voted for this monstrous black fisted Nazi. Images of the poor man shackled over head, shaved , beaten for having brown skin nauseates MY HEART soul.
There are so many seniors/elderly not on social media. This is reckless.
That is exactly the intent. I’m reasonably technology savvy, but don’t have a Twitter account and don’t want one. So many of the senior citizens that live around me in rural Virginia have very limited capabilities with technology. Creating an account on Twitter and then using it for what they need is totally beyond their capabilities.
I agree Charles. I have no desire to open a propaganda media account!🤬
A social media platform that has had numerous security breaches. This has gone entirely out of control!
I cancelled my twitter account a while ago....
That press secretary is a lying piece of crap!
Me too and I'm not about to go back.
Me as well. I am never going to the new twitter.
Me too.
You do realize this account that you're responding to is not the real Aaron Parnas account? Aaron would never ask you to go to a third site to invest in anything. Please report this account.Ask pretending to be someone else.
This is not Aaron’s account
This is fake account
I think Aaron has been compromised. Because there's a guy on here pretending to be him trying to get you to invest in some scam.
Please tell us how he was compromised?
I don't understand your reply? Who was compromised? I stated having your personal information on Twitter will be a disaster! Because yes, Twitter has been hacked many times and personal account information stolen.

yup
Yep,
Me too!
…and I am not going back, either!
Me too, and NEVER going back
Ditto.
I refuse to get a twitter account
I left Twitter a few months ago and not going back. Ridiculous! Musk just wants more people on his site and to make it harder for the elderly. Maybe someone in congress will speak up. Lots of people have left Twitter or X and went to threads or Bluesky. I like threads. More sane people there.

Hell no and the cookies alone could be used to find out more about you
It’s not going to happen. As long as we push back. This is more absurd than most his other bs
Push back exactly how? To some degree, we are in this mess because people keep commenting that something or other isn’t going to happen. And then it does happen, over and over and over. Democrats still haven’t learned this, never say something won’t happen or can’t happen when you’re talking about the Trump regime.
It is so disrespectful to all the seniors who worked so hard their whole lives to contribute to it.
Yes! Not to mention that they will have no way to get question answers
I follow a couple of sites on Facebook . 1 is Boomer Benefits and Social security site.
Many of us have left facebook. A national service needs to communicate centrally first, on a public website, not on social media systems which can be confusing to navigate and rife with crowdsourced responses that can be hard to verify.
it's also cruel & discriminatory as well, I'm not old (60) but, I I don't use a cell phone however, I do have traumatic brain injury & partial paralysis & blindness & having finished my formal schooling well before computers came into common popular use, what little I do know is entirely self-taught so, there remain many functions I'm unable to execute.
I agree! My Mom is 75 and is still learning Facebook after 8 years on it.
I do not have a Twitter/X account and don't want one. Why Twitter/X? Why not Bluesky, or Threads or Instagram? I'll tell you why - because Elon Scumbag Musk owns Twitter and he will then have full knowledge of and access to any questions or problems people are having with their Social Security.

It’s like an indirect form of ageism
According to the .gov website Twitter will be used to inform the American people on changes to Social Security but you don’t have to be subscriber to the network, and Social Security will be available by phone. First of all, why would we trust a platform that is owned by someone who says Social Security is a Ponzi scheme? Are they going to renew muskrats contract? Investigations are needed!
I do NOT want my elderly parents any where near X. I don’t even have an account!
They are aware of this and that’s why they are doing it! Anything to make it impossible to file for social security means they get to pocket the money! Soon social security will end! That is the goal of these satanic politicians 😡😡👺👺I cry every day because we have no authorities in this country who will protect us and stop this domestic violence against the American people 😢

Yes, asinine. My mother can’t even handle a cell phone or computer.
They want people to die so don't have to pay them.
Weird. I got an email today from SSA.
Truly! It is not an easy platform to understand if you are not tech savy.
It’s intentional.
And twitter/x is owned by musk so he can keep an eye on your accounts!!
Forcing people to use Twitter is so beyond wrong. Plus it is going to expose them to That environment too
This is a fake Aaron Parnas account. Please report that aaron will never ask you for money or tell you to follow someone to invest.
I’m sorry, I don’t understand this?
Hacker. I’ve reported. It wasn’t Aaron
Fake account. Report it.
Don't reply to this person it's not Aaron. Some scammer seems to be among us.
I know NO seniors on twitter! I refuse to be on twitter!! Fuck that shit!!
Threads is a nice site . People are just like us. You have a few smartypants but most are really nice and against trump and what's going on. You can pick who you want to follow.

Stop trying to scam people. This is not Aaron, he will not be trying to forward people to a site. And we don't use the word telegram in America.
Reported it
No one can trust twitter. I got rid of it when muskrat bought it. This is part of 2025.
My comments on this move by the muskrat/ rapey felon 47 maladministration (which is nothing more than an example of a mafia protection racket ) are basically unprintable . I have never used the “f” bomb and other swear words as much as I do now since the rapey felon was installed.
I am with you on swearing. I have cussed more in the past couple of months than I have my entire life. I overheard my granddaughter telling her cousin that grandma sure has a potty mouth a lot these days, she's 11. I couldn't rebuke her words she spoke the truth.
Lol I'm the same. I cuss up a storm when watching the news..
Same here lol
Exactly why they are using it ! You are right !
Same here
That is freaking insane! We should not be conducting official government business on BS outside 100% crooked apps. And besides, Seniors don’t use X!!!Most don’t even use computers. And we NEED NOAA! We are so f’ed!! 🤬
The lawsuits are flying as we speak. There is no way that SS will be moved to twitter. This is the most idiotic thing I’ve ever heard of.
And they cannot deport Khalil because of a pro Palestinian protest. A judge will laugh both these cases out. And why is the POS Musk doing in SS anyways? And another thing that will cause a lawsuit is ICE going through SS. This is all fucking bullshit.
I got an email from AARP today that said:
"The Social Security Administration assured AARP that they will still allow all claim types to be completed over the telephone. This is great news for Americans all across the country, especially those who would have to travel long distances just to complete some paper work."
So, I don't know how factual either of them are. We know assurances in this admin are worth the paper they're written on, and sometimes less.
Good points. AARP has never been 100% upfront and honest with seniors. Hopefully they will be this time.
I got that same email. So I called AARP and asked them which is true? They said they are fighting for assurance that Twitter will not be used. I wasn't reassured.
Oh, great. So since they have fired half the staff, people have to wait forever to speak with an agent. Good luck. And cuts to NOAA are insane like cuts to the space program. Makes Russia so happy.
Cuts to NOAA are stupid! Just like trump is stupid!
Twitter…a waste of time and oxygen, just like trump!
You are on the wrongAaron Parnas acct this account is a fake account. Pretending to be him, please report it. Aaron would never ask you for money or to invest in anything!
Happy to be a paid subscriber!
THANK YOU SO MUCH
So no more SSA.gov?? Since when is twitter a secure site?
Who made this decision that SSA will be via X/Twitter? How will privacy be addressed?
Just Elon grifting more money 😡
I think that’s the point.
How is this not a conflict of interest?? Elon owns Twitter and will make money from ads from more users. Elon is a “special government employee “. Or was. Probably will be again.
Exactly. So many have left the platform. Seniors will prep it up. This is insanity.
OMG the funding cuts. It’s trump’s fault we had so much trouble with Covid, and now he’s punishing people again?
This is all kinds of fvcked up
Does this mean we can no longer get information directly from the SSA website?
I turn 65 next week. I’ve given up thinking I’ll access social security.
Do it now! I did mine online in November. The changes haven’t hit yet so it should go smoothly. Best of luck.
Even for MAGA this is a bit much. Making the only way to contact Elons company!?
Have your eyes been opened yet? It’s what I want to say to every American citizen and resident. The news is more and more chilling. I believe it when I read there might be deportation camps.

What chilling hell awaits us?
Snakes slither quietly through American streets🇺🇸
NOTHING will ever be the same
s
This cannot be legal…I’m infuriated by this news on SS! I am not on “Twitter “ nor is my +93 yy father🤬…time for a Class action lawsuit,
who’s with me!!!
Me
