Summary
Former Social Security Commissioner Martin O’Malley warns that actions by Elon Musk threaten to disrupt Social Security payments within 30-90 days, something that has never happened in the program’s 80+ year history.
Following leadership upheaval, including the resignation of acting commissioner Michelle King, and significant staff cuts leading to system outages, O’Malley advises beneficiaries to “start saving now.”
The administration is planning to terminate leases at approximately 45 Social Security locations.
Critics call these moves a “backdoor benefit cut” that will particularly impact new applications and in-person services for elderly and disabled Americans.
I hate to admit this for the people who rely on social security checks to survive, but I really wish the Social Security Administration screws up because of Musk, because that will for sure trigger a bloody rebellion against him and the orange utan. And the country desperately needs this and fast.
Will it? They’ll just say it’s Biden’s fault and enough people will buy it to prevent an organized protest.
I don’t think it would fly. Even the dumbest magat knows Musk is diddling with the Social Security Administration at the request of the orange utan, when the orange utan literally said he wouldn’t touch it, and they’ll put two and two together PDQ if their check doesn’t come in the mail for the first time ever.
You had me until this part.
I’m sorry to say you’re incorrect. I have family who receive social security cheques, and they will not blame Trump and Musk if the cheques don’t arrive.
People need to understand how utterly different the worldview is on Fox News and the like. I don’t even watch Fox News, I just occasionally glimpse it peripherally while I’m at the gym, and it’s easy to see how consistently they can spin what’s happening into something else entirely.
