I received a Trump propaganda email from the Social Security Administration. [View all]

According to the message, I received $7,500 in "relief" this year, wait times are down 30%, phone calls are answered 75% faster, and American seniors are winning.

Every one of those claims are total bullshit. It's going to take a few hours for my blood pressure to drop.
