Dudek first made his threat to close down the #SocialSecurity Administration during a Bloomberg News interview Thurs night.
Such a dramatic move would be unprecedented in the agency’s history & would immediately begin halting benefit payments for millions of Americans.

Miami State Rep asks #Biden for clemency to handful of people, including survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking
By: Mitch Perry, January 18, 2025
"With just two days left in his presidency, Miami-Dade Democratic Rep. #DotieJoseph is calling on Joe Biden to extend clemency and pardons to a handful of individuals and groups who she says represent critical cases of injustice and unfairness.
"She’s calling for clemency for #LeonardPeltier, the #NativeAmericanActivist who was convicted of two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of two FBI agents in a 1975 shooting on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Peltier has been imprisoned for more than 48 years, with dozens of members of Congress urging his release. Peltier, 79, has maintained his innocence throughout his time in prison.
"She wants a presidential pardon for #MarilynMosby, state attorney for Baltimore from 2015 to 2013. Last May she was sentenced to 12 months of home confinement as part of a 36 month sentence of supervised release for making a false mortgage application and two counts of perjury.
"Joseph described Mosby in her letter as 'the courageous State Attorney whose politically motivated prosecution was pay-back for her efforts to hold accountable those responsible for the inexcusable death of #FreddyGray, who was killed while handcuffed in custody.'
"Joseph seeks a pardon for #StevenDonziger, an environmental and human rights attorney. Donziger won a $9.5 billion judgement against Chevron in an environmental lawsuit in Ecuador. He was sentenced to six months in jail in 2023 for failing to comply with a judge’s order to surrender all of his electronic devices, according to CNBC.
"Rep. Joseph is calling for a pardon for #survivors of #DomesticViolence and #HumanTrafficking who are 'incarcerated for desperate acts of #SelfDefense against their abusers, and doing so would redress the system’s failure to protect them and end their cycle of continued victimization.'
"Biden’s tenure in office ends at 11:59 am, Monday, Jan.20.
"Biden commuted the sentences of nearly 2,500 people convicted of nonviolent drug offenses on Friday morning."

Residential school survivors' group on verge of shutdown amid lack of funding from Ottawa
A residential school survivors' group says it will have to close its doors at the end of the month unless it receives a federal funding decision. Laura Arndt, lead at the Survivors' Secretariat in southern Ontario, is accusing Ottawa of breaking promises. “They lied" to survivors, she said.

As a millennial, I believe that #genX is the only #generation that does not suck. Stoic, realistic in their hopes and aspirations, supportive of their kids and family. A tad bit #nostalgic about better times but not delusional. Uses religion as a guide, not as a crutch.
They're #survivors.

@AaronDavid The #Survivors of #Polio and other "#ChildDiseases" like my grandparents were traumatized from loosing 20-50% of their classmates in elementary school that they literally threatened to disown my parents if they didn't vaccinate their kids!
- Not that they ever debated that at all, since they got vaccinated themselves and were glad they were.

For people like myself who survived and are working to heal from an abusive patriarchal family, this election result is triggering. My heart is with you, you don't deserve this. Don't give up. We need more healing on a broader scale. Broken people elect broken leaders.
