I checked my account with trepidation today

My social security deposit was intact. Sad to have to make this post. Not too long ago we didn’t have to worry what the president might do to us. For spite. For greed. For lies.

He’s solving his immigration problem. Soon no one will want to live in his shithole country.

1. I expect once folks have to worry about SS and Medicare paying them...the House GOP will have a problem

Musk and Trump maybe can ignore day to day worries, but Congress gets held accountable every two years and this is not a hill they want to die on.

5. Nothing they do seems to bother the MAGAs.

The more crimes the more they love Trump.

And besides, when you rig elections, voter opinion doesn't matter.

What these idiots don't understand is just think of all the money they would have if their precious SS was invested in a 401K all these years instead of the lousy amount they get now. Instead of government robbing them blind.

The DUmmies actually buy into ignorant claims that Musk is willy nilly cutting off peoples' benefits.  They watch way too much CNN and MSNBC.

It is kind off heartless for Musk to cut off SS checks for 125-year-olds though.

IF the DUmp'Rats are stupid enough to believe that Trump/Musk/DOGE are confiscating people's Socialist Security, they DESERVE to have their Socialist Security confiscated...

In non-partisan, spin-free English:

1. Dems and their MSM-shills claimed Bogey-Musk was stealing Social Security $$$$.

2. BOSSHOG stupidly (OK, that adjective is partisan, :-) ) believed Dem Party lies.

3. BOSSHOG checked their SSA account and learned the Dems lied.

4. SVPete's partisan predictions: BOSSHOG will check their SSA account again next month, and find it "intact"; BOSSHOG will not admit having been wrong, and will (or may have already) move on the the next Dem Party and MSM-shill lie(s) about the Bad Orange Man.

They constantly bitch about SS, but they don't seem to think like you and I do ... that SS is robbing them blind AND the government has control of that money and can change the rules any time they want to.  AND, once you die, that's it, you can't give it to anyone.

SS is one of, if not the most, disgusting and useless programs we have.

If the DUmbasses would leave their bubble, they would see all kinds of headlines:  "Trump to not touch Social Security, except for obvious fraud."

My main beef with SS is that they limit the amount you can make when drawing SS.  I think it's currently $24,000.  What possible business is it of the governments how much I make while continuing to work, because I love to?  How does this make any sense. 

That, and all the incomprehensible rules that literally takes a law degree and years of specialized study and practice to master.  The rules should be simple enough for a moron, and fill up one page max.

Guess which lying dementia patient that stole the election was a driving factor in the senate to get SS taxed?

Joe Corrupt Pedophile Biden

So the DUmbass DUches are DUble DUmb.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

This has been my beef with SS as well. As long as I pay into it I should be able to work as much as I need to. Especially since they raised my rent $200.00 last August and they have yet to do much of anything to this building since they built it in the late 1970's Also I saw that they are thinking of giving the taxpayers a refund from all of the money they have found that has been going to waste and it news said it could be a check worth as much as $5,000.00

Unfortunately, the truth is too far-fetched for them to believe. :thatsright:

I think your number 4 needs an edit.  Not only will they not admit having been wrong, they will claim they were always right.  In their version of the story, Trump and Musk were fully prepared to steal all of the Social Security money and were just days away from transferring the entire fund to their Swiss bank accounts when their efforts were thwarted by the Dems.  Thousands of moonbats waving signs and posting on message boards saved the day.  Trump and Musk are reduced to twirling their imaginary Snidely Whiplash mustaches and lamenting "they would have got away with it, if not for those meddling kids".   DU'ers take a victory lap and then they move on to their next lie about the Bad Orange Man.
