The Trump Administration is threatening to temporarily shutdown the Social Security Administration, a federal judge warns against it, Musk offers $100 to Wisconsin voters, and JD Vance is unpopular.
Wow! Only “fraudsters” would complain about their social security checks???? Are you flipping kidding me? My parents live on a fixed income with just their social security checks and would be homeless if they didn’t get one!! They are not fraudulent people either they worked hard for their SS checks. This administration will be the death of a lot of people!!!
I’m 55, on SSDI and that pays part of my mortgage. I only started getting it in 2021 but I started working early when I was 15 and paid into it all my life. Everyone here has paid a lot in or some and it is not the governments money. These billionaires don’t give a fck because they’ll never need it so do care. If Trump wants people in the streets, let him touch it.
My brother is on SSDI as well and been working since 16 and he just got it 3 years ago and he literally lives paycheck to paycheck and then has to borrow money to keep him afloat. Yet he voted for this shit show!! My parents voted for him bc their preacher “told them to.” This one if it happens will be the straw to break MAGAs back hopefully and they will realize that they voted against their own interests and now they are suffering from the consequences. Hopefully they will stand up and fight with us instead against!!
Oh I know bc my brother just lost his insurance bc he couldn’t afford the $185 they were going to start charging him for it. He has CHF and needs critical meds to help him live but now he can’t get them. We need to be improving these programs not disrupting them!!
Sounds like you need to fill out IRS Form 13909, Tax-Exempt Organization Complaint Form and turn the pastor in for politics. That particular church will lose its tax exempt status.
Yes, it will take time because the IRS has to investigate. But for the irs site: Currently, the law prohibits political campaign activity by charities and churches by defining a 501(c)(3) organization as one "which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office."
We do what we can. We have no power, no great wealth, no political POS in our pocket. We join protests when we can. Enough of MuskDOG (no more DOGE BS! Giving himself airs the treasonous bastard. No more schukin and jivin. he will be a pimple on our azzes until we freeze his assets so he can no longer do any harm to our country. Goes for fat azz Tramp too.
What is left of the IRS under Musk's chosen criminals. You are right and a great post! I have said many times, to shut them up - tax them. " it may not be an action organization, i.e., it may not attempt to influence legislation as a substantial part of its activities and it may not participate in any campaign activity for or against political candidates."
There's over 3 tril in SS. I do my homework. Let me revise my first statement: "As of the end of 2023, the Social Security trust funds held asset reserves of approximately $2.79 trillion, but benefit payments are increasingly exceeding income, with projections indicating the reserves could be depleted by around 2035." Now, as long as Americans are working and they and their employer pay into SS, I'd estimate we won't run out of $. The SS benefits end at death and at that time payments stop and are still in the coffer, but our younger generation is paying into SS with each paycheck. Thelolser Trump wants to take our SS $ and "invest it for us". A 6 time "Bankruptcy Professional Thief" would bankrupt us! Trump will steal the money as he has from countless others.
I depend on my EARNED Social Security to pay my mortgage. I would be at my local SSA office within MINUTES if I didn’t receive my deposit. And my local Senator’s office. I don’t think mortgage lenders would be happy with potentially millions of borrowers being late with their payments either. This is total BULLSHIT!
That’s how I was able to get my mortgage was to show that I was receiving SS and I get a pension, that I’m missing 15 yrs of because of my injury, from my union. Without SS, I would default as well. They think this is some sort of a game.
Hi again. Yeah, true. Many will be out on the streets....because that is what they want. Able bodied men and women need to pick up their pitchforks. during the Nazi regime, it was done in many European countries. Mussolini looked his best at the end of that rope.
Banks that hold mortages don't want our "houses", they want the money! The banks will be eating shite if SS tanks. Banks depend on that $ because remember, banks use depositors $ for lending and interest.
We need to come out in masses against this Gestapo. I have a portable oxygen tank and my friend wheels me to our local protests. He records everything in the event our local police touch me. Our local PD wouldn't do that in my little town. they aren't cut from the same cloth as Trump.
Because in those “conservative “ soulless brains, people whose sole income is SSDI/ SSA , or dependent on Medicare/Medicaid are worthless people and “takers” so don’t deserve assistance. It’s our own fault if we depend on these programs (even though we paid into them our whole working lives and basically had no choice regarding withholding payments to SSA during employment.) People aren’t angry enough in my opinion. That this anti government, anti democracy republican propaganda party has been promoting these lies about SSA and ACA, medical programs for years and the stupids still vote them in enrages me. I have tried to talk to family/friends about what is coming from this maladministration but it falls on willfully deaf ears, so until these people are in dire straits and near homeless I don’t know when they will WTFU.
Kathy, first...I loved your post, shows passion, secondly, I believe We the People will get angry enough to raise the biggest stink the world has ever heard! Europe hates Trump and Musk. Look at their massive protests! Americans think the calvary is coming, it will, just not the calvary these MAGAs think. One thing we know for sure, those fired Generals are pissed as hell, not at their firing alone, but that Trump and MuskDOG have left our entire military vunerable with criminals leading these honest men and women who enlisted to serve and protect us and our country.
Or this administration will see the death of themselves. This is not a threat but a prediction of their demise by their own doing.People have power and we will use it. .
Those are the men and women we need to bring this dictatorship down to ash. I still say we freeze Musk and Trump's assets and take the money to remove them from our WH and restore our govt. Those that took the money to help Muskrat and Tramp in congress or not go down with them.
Those that take the money 💰 🤑 which I wouldn't do it. Should still vote and vote for Susan Crawford. 100 dollars isn't enough money for anything. No money in the world would ever sway me to be a part of destroying a country, let alone hundreds of countries. This is an abomination.
If they stop paying out Social Security benefits I will have no way to pay any bills. That's literally the only means of which I live. I won't be able to pay my rent, car payment, get my meds, have gas in the car to go to my appointments. Millions upon millions of people are in the same boat. Trump administration would be wise to not do this to Americans. If you take away all a person has to survive all you're doing is telling them they've got nothing left to lose.
Quit paying regardless since they want to cut all our benefits but find a genocide in Gaza killing hundreds of thousands of people including children . I’m over this shit but then they act like the Ukraine is asking for so much from us . Tell me what has Israel ever done for the United States ? !
Can you even imagine, out of 73,000,000 citizens receiving social security, how many are totally dependent on getting that check on the same day every month? And that cruel, bastardly commerce secretary says we are fraudsters?? Evidently the commerce secretary has never lived a day in the real world and, therefore he is the real fraudster!!! He may have been selected by Trump, but he works for us.
When I was a child my father was elderly and couldn’t work. We barely survived and all we had was his social security check. I know millions of people are in that same boat.
Good Morning! Thank you for all this information. And, yes, you are correct in saying lack of SS checks will be devastating to so many people in the US. It’s horrific to even think they will put so many people in a situation where they will not even be able to hardly stay alive.
It’s because they don’t care about any Americans. Trump said so himself. “I don’t care about you, I just want your vote.” It is probably one of the only times he’s been honest on the campaign trail.
Wow! Only “fraudsters” would complain about their social security checks???? Are you flipping kidding me? My parents live on a fixed income with just their social security checks and would be homeless if they didn’t get one!! They are not fraudulent people either they worked hard for their SS checks.

And plus we pay for Medicare out of it. That’s our health insurance.
Oh I know bc my brother just lost his insurance bc he couldn’t afford the $185 they were going to start charging him for it. He has CHF and needs critical meds to help him live but now he can’t get them. We need to be improving these programs not disrupting them!!
Wow. And the $185 doesn’t get you prescriptions, just doctors. Trump is a POS.
MAGA probably won’t admit to anything.
You sound surprised. That is not new.
Sounds like you need to fill out IRS Form 13909, Tax-Exempt Organization Complaint Form and turn the pastor in for politics. That particular church will lose its tax exempt status.
Oh really???

I have also paid into SS since I was 15. I am now 71. Who will be the 1st amoral depraved billionaire to steal what is in the coffer?

Exactly. They can pressure this regime to maintain SS.
We need to come out in masses against this Gestapo. I have a portable oxygen tank and my friend wheels me to our local protests. He records everything in the event our local police touch me. Our local PD wouldn't do that in my little town. they aren't cut from the same cloth as Trump.

100%. cutting off SS, Medicare, VA benefits....
He's right only a fraudster! He would know better only to give to billionaires who don't need a tax break
Will you let them die ? Or fight for their own possessions. You gonna let them steal from YOU !
Those are the men and women we need to bring this dictatorship down to ash. I still say we freeze Musk and Trump's assets and take the money to remove them from our WH and restore our govt. Those that took the money to help Muskrat and Tramp in congress or not go down with them.
What happened to paying for votes being illegal??
So apparently it’s because it’s $100 to sign a petition, not to vote… still incentivizing an election imo
Could not agree more.
18 U.S. Code § 597
Those that take the money 💰 🤑 which I wouldn't do it. Should still vote and vote for Susan Crawford. 100 dollars isn't enough money for anything. No money in the world would ever sway me to be a part of destroying a country, let alone hundreds of countries. This is an abomination.
I mean he can pay WI voters all he wants. I’ll take 100 bucks for free but I’m still voting and have already voted for Crawford.
This has been the longest few months :/
It’s only 3 months into 2025
Feels like it’s been years 🤦🏻♂️
Facts
Feels like Hell.
The day it went to hell was when he stepped back into office
Definitely HELL‼️
every day I hope for just one day of peace
I took wait for one day of peace, yet when and if it happens I'll be nervous waiting for mayhem. Ugh
JD Vance being unpopular is the least breaking news I’ve ever heard haha. Thanks for all the hard work!
If they stop paying out Social Security benefits I will have no way to pay any bills. That's literally the only means of which I live.

2/3 of seniors rely on SS for at least half of their income! The level of clueless political tone deafness is astonishing.
I will not pay my taxes if this continues. Not giving my money to billionaires.
Quit paying regardless since they want to cut all our benefits but find a genocide in Gaza killing hundreds of thousands of people including children . I’m over this shit but then they act like the Ukraine is asking for so much from us . Tell me what has Israel ever done for the United States ? !

He may have been selected by Trump, but he works for us.
If social security is not paid, people will riot and there will be violence.
I can’t wait for Maga to turn on him . Their crazier than all of us and have guns .
They are. But we have prepared and are now heavily armed ourselves
Trump is a mad man drunk on power and greed. Those who voted for him better wake up and see what’s ahead and it is NOTHING good.
The trump supporters I've known are waiting for Dems to wake up. They are trump supporters for life and I hope they suffer in it.
Honestly ya. I want them to feel this. Maybe when millions of them lose their ss and their homes, they’ll stfu forever
Unfuckinbelievable!
When I was a child my father was elderly and couldn’t work. We barely survived and all we had was his social security check. I know millions of people are in that same boat.
Isn't buying votes illegal
Imagine being so confident in your ability that you need to pay for people to vote for you
April 5th, everyone. Get out there. We get out there & we don’t stop until he has.
The fraudsters comment is so infuriating!
Good Morning! Thank you for all this information. And, yes, you are correct in saying lack of SS checks will be devastating to so many people in the US. It’s horrific to even think they will put so many people in a situation where they will not even be able to hardly stay alive.

Thanks for the clarity & sanity, Aaron! Pace yourself! 🙏
