"We hear this again and again, especially from members of Congress, 'the answer is simple. Elon Musk and his billionaire buddies want to rob you of your social security so he and his fat-cat pals can enrich themselves at our expense.' Wrong, wrong, wrong! Those of us who track this ideology know that their real goals are much more nefarious — they don't want to run the federal government, they want to eliminate it."

The SSA is cutting staff. Field offices will be affected. The same thing happened in the 80s, when 21% of field office jobs were cut. A new research paper finds that it resulted in 80K eligible Americans not getting earned benefits.
It'll be worse today, as nearly 2X as many people are on SS/SSI. Low-income disabled, blind, & elderly ppl won't be able to access asst. 1 field office worker told me more ppl will💔DIE while waiting for benefits.

US President Donald Trump threatened to impose additional sanctions on Russia over its continuing assault on Ukraine, suggesting the measures would be meant to push the Kremlin toward a cease-fire and ultimately a peace deal to end the war, now in its fourth year since Moscow's full-scale invasion.
