“Today, the Court issued clarifying guidance about the Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) related to DOGE employees and DOGE activities at the Social Security Administration (SSA). Therefore, I am not shutting down the agency. President Trump supports keeping Social Security offices open and getting the right check to the right person at the right time. SSA employees and their work will continue under the TRO.”

    This is confusing because I don’t know what it’s referring to. Please provide background and detail on such announcements.

    This announcement was unnecessary. If you keep sending emails every day, you will train the recipients to ignore them.

    Can’t believe that dunce Dudek had the nerve to threaten people’s social security check over DOGE activities. The group is ill legal and no way are federal employees affiliated DOGE — obvious from the fights to keep DOGE’s hands off of federal employees. Ridiculous!

    Sorry you have to deal with this ridiculous situation. Some people don’t want problems exposed. Gotta wonder why.

    What in the hell kind of insanity is this Russian operative doing to this country?
    Someone is going to get hurt if this keeps up. I am retired VA. My friends there are scared to death. This is pure treason.
    The penalty for that used to be quite different than the reward it is now!

    Social security has been paying the right benefits to the right people. These benefits belong to people that have worked and paid into the Social security system. It is not a welfare nor a handout. The employees do not deserve to lose their jobs, just because someone feels like shutting down offices.

    I think it’s disgusting that Trump, Musk, and Dudek are trying to destroy Social Security.

    Yes, I would like to know, also, if the Social Security department was going to close down operations for any reason? In response to the comment from another person, I would also like to know the answer to this. Why would Social Security shut down operations and not send the Social Security recipients their monthly payments When due? Please clarify why this would take place in the first place and what a recipient of Social Security should do if this ever is anticipated again? And would the Social Security beneficiary recipients receive notification in advance if their monthly payment was going to be halted stopped or delayed? Please clarify in detail Why this would have occurred and if this is still a proposition to stop payments to beneficiary recipients of Social Security payments thank you
