Biden “overhang”?
They didn’t hang Mike Pence? WOW who knew?
SSA PRESS RELEASE
4/29/25
Nothing new, no permanent Field Offices closures, phones, firings.
Overpayments no longer 10%. Didn’t say it’s now 100%. So a $2,000 overpayment that was SSA FAULT, see ya $2,000 not $200 of your next check, you get ZERO for their mistakes.

There’s “Santa” Monica by Theory of a Deadman and by Everclear. Two different songs.
REMEMBER
Executive orders are subject to judicial review and interpretation.
Our legal scholars have remembered.
EXECUTIVE ORDERS
Words Only
*Investigating “straw donor”
*common sense truck driving
*protecting law enforcement from law suits
*restoring seafood competitiveness - all fish equal?
Reality - He’s
*losing in courts
*losing public (protests)
*losing ballot box

LAWSUITS VS TRUMP
There’s 210 lawsuits, 206 active, actually 100+ higher/student visa holders 1 case
We are NOT losing these and they are NOT defying most.
Trump policies being reversed, District Court losses, preliminary injunctions won.
KEEP THEM IN COURT

SSA FIELD OFFICE CLOSURES
There’s 11 out of 1,230 Field Offices.
Two articles in last 24 hrs about “former SSA Martin O’Malley says major disruptions”.
1) This same story keeps being repeated for 6 weeks now
2) 50K is LESS than 75K employees. I think?

Trump wants to get rid of the “pork”.
He did, 12,000 tons of pork that was supposed to go to China.
Who hasn’t felt all of this yet, Alzheimer’s funding, tariffs, deportations, Federal job cuts, children, entire world.
Judiciary targeting to amp up soon may be next.

I was a “Real Conservative Republican” until 2016. Trump is so far from my Christian and Conservative values, no way he was ever getting my vote.
I think it was more gaslighting from him and media about economy and immigration for 2024. In 2016 James Comey gave him the election - emails vs NOW?
That deserves a Hell No
Change to numbers like we have never seen before……….
So sorry, way “too many” of “us”. I had to leave Phoenix as I knew I would be driving on that same freeway twice a day to work. I think they transferred me to Denver on purpose - from 115 to 30 below zero. Was fine, I got away was all that mattered. This is last move I hope.
Thanks. Part of me feels like I bailed on Social Security. This was only after I realized there was very little I could do and DOGE. Watched 60 Minutes last night. Head of NIH said he left for same reasons, DOGE destruction. Now I think I’ll feel “wanted” and I can help out more.
Thank you. I would also except she was a Special Ed teacher and I’m now going to be a public school attorney. Miracle League is mine, volunteering a lot so kids or adults with disabilities can enjoy sports.
Ziva misses this old furniture, new house, no more renting, new start. She’s my youngest by a lot, she’ll be fine.
I need to hear, get transcript for this case. Not just SCOTUS, but I’d like to ask Gov. Walz about this, maybe no input?
KY has this girl who needs help with all ADLs and other accommodations in Special Needs. They move to MN who DENIES her help. Fed Funding issue also.

With F47, all things are possible. I remember Trump 1 like yesterday. I was GOP and helping first Sanders - AZ screwed him big time and after reluctantly Clinton. I voted for Kasich, in primary only GOP. I told people Trump will wreck this country for a decade.
I was wrong, it’s permanent.
What would you like the courts to do? Hold him in Contempt? Would that make you happy if he also defied that? 207 Lawsuits left not fully adjudicated. What is your solution?

I guess Trump and Project 2025 was the better choice for you.
Maybe my Sp Ed teacher wife killed at age 28 by a drunk driver wasn’t competent either, as she was Mexican American?
Maybe they should have shipped you sooner?
Thanks - may as well forget new job since I’m heading to CECOT.
Once I realized there was nothing I could do as a SS ALJ and the way DOGE was terrorizing everyone, that was it for me.
My bad, I’m sorry forgot all about that.
This one sucked. They thought Project 2025 was a hoax. I’m holding out a drop of hope for future rulings.
Roberts already upset. BK in Trump1 voted with Roberts and Dems MORE then Alito and Thomas.
Small drop?

YOUR MISGUIDED IMMUNITY?
Mine? Like an immunity idol on Survivor?
I never gave people immunity in Social Security cases.
Now as an attorney for Special Ed kids, who can I give immunity to? Jeff Probst?
Enacted by Who? I said Congress.
Of course I know all of this. I was a SS Judge who just quit and moved for a lower paying job.
SCOTUS? Hold him in contempt? Sure???
There’s 211 of these still.
What do you suggest?

Oh for the good old days when a scandal was President Obama’s tan suit.
Now there’s numerous daily, most criminal.
Love it, wish it could happen. Will never even get a house vote as long as Mike Johnson is there. Would never get house majority, no on 2/3 Senate if that happens.
Until the GOP wakes up this would never get off to a start.
Next? KIDS
Trump’s asking 9th Circuit for "en banc" review of 3-judge panel District Court ruling, gives funding to rep children in immigration cases.
Less than 2% are given. It is usually used for complex cases, an ELEVEN Judge panel will hear the case.
