On July 3rd the SSA quietly attempted to correct their email lie.
Correction Notice: This press release was updated on July 7, 2025. The second sentence of the fourth paragraph originally read, ”Additionally, it provides an enhanced deduction for taxpayers aged 65 and older, ensuring that retirees can keep more of what they have earned.”
This isn’t drift. It’s a full-speed dive into #authoritarian control.
Trump’s #DOGE agency is fusing #IRS #ssa #medicaid #voting #immigration and arrest data into one #surveillance engine; built by Palantir, enforced by #ice approved by #scotus
They’re buying your location and search history from #databrokers
Encrypted? Doesn’t matter. Oversight? Gone.
You are the product. And the suspect.

Hmmm, no Unsubscribe for the "July 3rd fealty to the president emails full of lies" list…
Axios (Emily Peck) on the SSA propaganda email: https://www.axios.com/2025/07/07/social-security-email-big-beautiful-bill #SSA
The July 3 message from #SocialSecurity #SSA is #propaganda, making it seem like tax cuts specific to Social Security are in the #OBBBA. The words "Social Security" appear in the bill only to require supplying SSNs for unrelated legal provisions, and the cited #taxcuts have nothing to do with Social Security. https://blog.ssa.gov/social-security-applauds-passage-of-legislation-providing-historic-tax-relief-for-seniors/
#Disinformation: #SocialSecurity email praising Trump’s tax bill is a lie
The #SSA sent an email claiming Trump’s bill eliminated taxes on benefits for most recipients.
The reconciliation bill–which #Trump called the #OneBigBeautifulBill before signing it after #Republicans in #Congress passed it–will strip people of their #HealthInsurance, cut #FoodAssistance for the #poor, kill off #CleanEnergy development & raise the #NationalDebt by trillions.

Describing the email:
“It doesn’t sound like normal government communications, official communications. It sounds like – you know – partisan.”
“It’s disturbing to see Trump hijack a public institution to push blatant misinformation.”
#Sad (a word I heard someone use at various times) - that they have so little honesty and integrity. I #UsedToTrust info from #SSA
‘Blatant misinformation’: Social Security Administration email praising Trump’s tax bill blasted as a ‘lie’

Previously apolitical Social Security Administration lauded Trump’s debt-expanding bill after its passage

Social Security Administration sends misleading email lauding Trump's new tax cuts law

“This email went to every Social Security subscriber and every word of it is a lie. Social Security benefits are still taxed. This big, ugly bill doesn’t change that,” New Jersey Rep. Frank Pallone, the top Democrat on the Energy and Commerce Committee, wrote on X. “It’s disturbing to see Trump hijack a public institution to push blatant misinformation.”

Scammers know that the U.S. SSA sent out a big propaganda email to every social security recipient with an email address on file yesterday, so they ALSO know that last night and this morning was a perfect time to send a bunch of "follow-up" scam emails to harvest credentials. I got six to a variety of my email addresses that scammers like to use. #Scammer #Spam #SSA #propaganda #CyberSecurity
From CBS News.com: Does the "big, beautiful bill" eliminate taxes on Social Security?
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/big-beautiful-bill-social-security-tax-trump/?ftag=YHF4eb9d17
I received an email from SSA.gov for the first time ever, claiming the spending bill ‘ensures that nearly 90% of Social Security beneficiaries will no longer pay federal income taxes on their benefits.’
Aside from this being absolutely false, I’m now certain our personal data has been breached - via @falrising.bsky.social
Now we have the freedom to get our lies directly from federal agencies via email!
Republicans' Big Billionaire Bill DOES NOT remove or reduce tax on Social Security Benefits!
Ooo, I have email from Frank Bisignano, Social Security Administrator. Oh, it's bullshit propaganda. Let's see what Wikipedia has to say about Bisignano, hmm there's a quote:
'[A]fter being tapped by the Trump administration to lead the agency, I don’t think the commissioner of Social Security is like a globally known title. It is to you, right? But, like, it wasn't to me. I’m like, "Well, what am I gonna do?". So I’m Googling "Social Security". That’s one of my great skills, I'm one of the great Googlers on the East Coast.... I’m like, "What the heck's the commissioner of Social Security?" '
Yeah, that tracks. Grifter who is absolutely out of his depth but gave big $$$ to Trump.
Got a message from the Social Security Administration touting the "big, beautiful bill" for providing tax relief to seniors.
Never mind the cuts to meals on wheels, Medicaid, Medicare, Snap benefits, etc... that are coming.
I didn't agree to receive spam from the Social Security Administration.
‘Big Balls’ Is Now at the #SocialSecurityAdministration
Edward “Big Balls” Coristine’s placement at the #SSA comes after a #WhiteHouse official told WIRED on Tuesday that the 19-year-old had resigned from his position in government.

"Dozens of communities have been devastated by windstorms, tornadoes, flooding & wildfires since Jan 20, killing nearly 100 Americans.
Trump
hasn't visited a single one.
He has, however, managed 40 days of golf."
We must amplify his lack of empathy for Americans' security, safety, health, wellbeing... He's a soulless, wicked traitor.
The #TrumpRegime has nearly destroyed the social safety net, economy, #SSA, #FEMA, #VA, #HHS incl the #CDC, #FDA...

#Musk Spread #Lies to Justify #DOGE Takeover of #SocialSecurity
#ElonMusk stood before a giant American flag at a Wisconsin rally in March & rolled out an eye-popping allegation of rampant fraud at the #SocialSecurityAdministration. Scammers, he said, were making 40% of all calls to the agency’s customer service line.
#SSA employees knew the claim had no basis in fact. After journalists followed up, staff began drafting a response correcting the record.
