Pensions will not be cut, they’ll be inflated away.

Exactly. They HAVE been and ARE being cut.

Real-world inflation has added up to over 60-percent price/COLA increases since 2020. EVERYTHING essential most of which government liars don't COUNT, with their rigged stats. Rent, doubled. Food, nearly doubled. Auto fuel, up 40 percent. Auto insurance, doubled.

Clothing, doubled. Electrical, increased 30 percent.

Pension income, up about 10 percent, using the Commerce Department's jiggered stats for RRR increases.

Here in my 55-plus apartment house, I see residents selling their cars to pay for expenses. They're on antiSocial inSecurity, and really hurting.

And nobody's heating up the tar. Come Election Day, it's...."Where's the D. Vote DEMOCRAT, they're FOR THE PEOPLE. You're not one of those Trump freaks, ARE YOU!"

How Elon Musk's access to Treasury system may impact Social Security, other government payments​

News that Department of Government Efficiency led by Elon Musk now has access to a government payment system that is responsible for $6 trillion in annual federal payments — including Social Security and Medicare benefits — has prompted criticism from Democratic lawmakers and advocates.

Yet in a new letter to Congress, the Treasury Department said the new development has not caused those benefit payments to be “delayed or re-routed.”

Last week, it was reported Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent granted access to the federal payment system to DOGE, an office within the president’s executive office. DOGE has been tasked with finding ways to reduce federal spending and increase government efficiency.

Opinion: Elon Musk is coming for your Social Security​

The only efficiency Elon Musk cares about is how efficiently he can take your money to line his own pockets. Despite President Trump’s campaign promises, Musk is coming after your earned Social Security benefits.

President Dwight Eisenhower, Republican and war hero, could have been talking about Musk when he warned in 1954 of a handful of “Texas oil millionaires” attempting to abolish Social Security. “Their number is negligible and they are stupid,” he wrote.

Yup. Mockingbird Source Nooze.

Musk, probably the richest man in the world, needs to steal (anti)SOCIAL (in)SECURITY.

The MSN liars should be arrested for Insurrection.

Lawrence: Because of Musk and Trump, for the first time Social Security payments are not guaranteed​

Feb 17, 2025 #elonmusk #trump #socialsecurity

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell explains how Elon Musk, whose only mission in government is to cut payments, has gained control over Social Security and put those payments in jeopardy for the first time, proving that President Roosevelt was right when he said, "No damn politician can ever scrap my social security program."

I appreciate the caution warning - not for the warning, but as a little instruction to myself that I'm getting a bit thin-skinned.

I'll take it under advisement.

This sort of thing is useful, I have to remind myself - know what the Enemy is telling its tools and fools.

That was me having a laugh. I thought it was hysterical. I do that with some posts.

Truth be told............they (msnbc) have kinda come a bit unglued since the election. It's actually worse than we Trump won before. Then again...........2 sides to every coin.

Honest mistakes? Or outright lies in an attempt to screw hard working retirees out of what they worked for and paid into (along with their employers paying their share) their whole lives? Doesn't make a difference. It should not be happening.

Musk misreads Social Security data, millions of dead people not on benefits: Experts​

President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, in their hunt for "fraud, waste and abuse" in the federal government, are falsely implying millions of dead Americans are receiving Social Security benefits, experts told ABC News.

It started in the Oval Office last week when Musk -- facing reporters for the first time since the Department of Government Efficiency began its aggressive overhaul of the federal government -- said he found "crazy things" in the Social Security system, including, he said, people who are "150 years old."

'Nightmare for all of us': Anxiety grows among Social Security recipients​

President Donald Trump was asked at a press conference this month if there were any federal agencies or programs that Elon Musk’s newly formed Department of Government Efficiency wouldn’t be allowed to mess with.

“Social Security will not be touched,” Trump answered, echoing a promise he has been making for years. Despite his eagerness to explode treaties, shutter entire government agencies and abandon decades-old ways of doing things, the president understands that Social Security benefits for seniors are sacrosanct.

The nightmare is the Left's propaganda-outlets, the misnamed "press," distorting, lying and inciting, about what Musk and DOGE are doing.

Yeah, the richest man in the world is gonna loot the Social Security Administration - which has nothing but computerized IOUs, anyway. The silliness of elderly DemocRat voters, so ill-informed makes me embarrassed to be old. What is there to loot, and why would Musk loot it? HOW could he loot it? The Klintoons and later the Bidenista, ROUTED MONEY INTO THEIR POCKETS. Musk doesn't NEED the cash flow that Chelsea and Doctor Jill and Hunter the Painter, need. Musk can put on gay puppet shows anywhere, any time he wants.

It's those who slime their way into government, basically indigent, and emerge as multimillionaires, having done nothing, who need this gusher of seignorage.

The bottom line is, those of a democracy get the government they deserve. Do we deserve these looters of the public treasuries, who accuse those who come to stop it, of doing what they have done?
