The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Picture this. You're a U.S. citizen, handing out resumes in your own neighborhood. Suddenly, ICE agents swarm you, cuff you, confiscate your wallet and ID, toss you into a van, and put you in a cell. No warrant. No questions. No chance to prove you're American. /1

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower. Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.
