Disgraceful SSA replacement of press releases with Twitter posts

I worked for SSA for almost 38 years, This is unbelievable. I believe Wired, not SSA.

We stand by our reporting.

SCOOP: The Social Security Administration (SSA) will be shifting its public communication exclusively to X, sources tell WIRED. This comes as agency plans to cut its regional office workforce by roughly 90 percent.

Trump’s bad idea to bring coal back

He will use the law firms who caved into him to help him.

Breaking: the Trump admin has “temporarily” paused enforcement of a Biden-era silica rule that was aimed at combating the rising black lung crisis in Appalachia. Coal miners and their advocates have been fighting for *decades* to lower deadly silica dust exposure levels. http://www.msha.gov/notice-stake…

I’ve been documenting coal miners’ fight against black lung and attempts to push through these new regulations for the past several years. My @inthesetimesmag.bsky.social investigation into the crisis provides some background: inthesetimes.com/article/coal…

Trump Signs Orders Aimed at Reviving a Struggling Coal Industry … and you thought tariffs were dumb… http://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/c…

At his coal promotion event at the White House, Trump just said he will use the major law firms he bullied into providing $150 million+ in free legal services to fight state and local government regulations on coal pollution.

This is Scott – a CDC researcher working to help screen coal miners for black lung. His entire department was eliminated last week, leaving miners across the country at greater risk of sickness and death. I’m fighting back.

President Trump signs executive orders to bolster the country’s declining coal industry, relaxing restrictions on coal mining, leasing and exports in what the White House said is an effort to meet the energy needs of artificial intelligence data centers.

I grew up around coal miners. For 16 years I was related to many by marriage, including some suffering from black lung and others whose bodies were either broken or on their way to being broken. None of them wanted that life for their kids and those still in it all wanted out. He's a fucking idiot.
