“Are we going to break something?” acting Social Security Commissioner Leland Dudek asked, referring to what DOGE has been doing with Social Security data. “I don’t know."

"Sociologist Brooke Harrington says that for the world's wealthiest people, many of the laws and rules followed by the rest of us simply don't apply. The lives of the richest people in the world are so different from those of the rest of us, it's almost literally unimaginable. National borders are nothing to them. They might as well not exist. The laws are nothing to them. They might as well not exist."

@emptywheel pointed out Tom Cole OK-R bragged that he'd reversed DOGE's efforts to cut Social Security Services for Oklahomans.

But this guy lost his benefits

Cole didn't fix the problem--he just let #ElonMusk continue to attack his constituents!

So I used @juddlegum new #Musk tracker doge.muskwatch.com
& found $1.6 million in chainsaw cuts in Cole's district to Chickasaw Strategic Pointe.
Maybe #DOGE's shitty AI thinks it's DEI because it's not run by white men.

Every day I wonder when the MAGA administration will just start ignoring what judges tells them to do. I see no reason to believe this day will not come some time soon. I hope I'm wrong, but why would they not ignore it? The judicial doesn't have an army to enforce their judgements.

Ah those long-ago days of innocence when people just mocked the Incel Camino instead of trying to burn them all down (before nature did it anyway).

(It won't let me put 2 videos into one post so the second is in the reply)

I do believe it is STARLINK debris which is causing all these unexplained fires and explosions on Tesla properties.
Grok told me so, and these super-intelligent god-machines couldn't be wrong, could they? It couldn't just be hype, could it? /s

This is why the share price is important, he's leveraged his whole borrowed lifestyle on it.

Voters flood town halls with fears of Social Security cuts, putting heat on GOP over Musk and DOGE

Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and one of Trump’s most influential advisers, has called Social Security 'the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time'
