   🚨 22/ Acting Social Security head consults with Justice Dept. on whether to close agency — Leland Dudek says he will ‘terminate access by all SSA employees’ to IT systems: report

   Acting commissioner says it should shut down Social Security Administration.

   Bloomberg News reported, “As it stands, I will follow it exactly and terminate access by all SSA employees to our IT systems,” the report quoted Dudek as saying.

   “Really, I want to turn it off and let the courts figure out how they want to run a federal agency,” Dudek said, according to the report.

   It's worthy to note, the entire agency runs via an "IT system" setup.

     21/ New internal Social Security Administration (SSA) memo, sent on March 13, details Trump DOGE's plan to sabotage the Social Security Administration, changes "that would debilitate the agency, cause significant processing delays, and prevent many Americans from applying for or receiving benefits" #SocialSecurity

     The changes would increase field office traffic, longer call wait times, and delayed processed, as well as disproportionatly impact on vulnerable populations

     A DOGE workaround of the new policy means these claims will never be approved without using ID-Proof internet or making an in-person visit.

     I hate this feck'n thread but it must continue. The policy says they fear "congressional scrutiny" so make your voices heard.
