From Elon Musk another long stream of easily disproven false claims about Social Security, the FAA and the work of his DOGE team.
Musk floats falsehoods about Social Security, immigrants as DOGE seeks changes
Elon Musk presented the fact that some noncitizens have Social Security numbers as shocking. But that’s how it’s supposed to work. And it doesn’t let them vote.

Hmm.. Perhaps show his stupid ass this. Of course he's surely an idiot so it won't matter anyway.
Wisconsin's Supreme Court race is now the most expensive court race in U.S. history — largely due to donations from out-of-state billionaires.

As Justice Louis Brandeis said, we can have great wealth in the hands of a few, or we can have democracy, but we can't have both.

If having a tattoo justifies arresting someone in the dead of night and shipping them off to a concentration camp in El Salvador, then shouldn't Pete Hegseth be on the next flight out?

Elon Musk has shut down a team of tech-savvy civil servants responsible for developing the IRS’s free tax-filing service and improving government websites. As a result, 90 employees were immediately locked out of their devices and informed that their jobs were deemed non-essential.

“You’re terminated because…?”

Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside.

DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

Our insurance company just wrote to us that the life saving medication our 9-year-old daughter needs to live is rejected because they decided—CONTRARY TO HER DOCTOR—that it is "Not Medically Necessary."

Her meds costs ~$200K/year. Insurance industry raked in $88 BILLION in profits last year.

At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leave—they work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.
