Well, howdy there, Internet people, it's fell again.

So today, we're going to talk about Trump and Social Security skipping a month of payments.

Trump's Commerce Secretary made some comments that certainly raised eyebrows.

For a lot of people, it might have been the first time they saw how fundamentally disconnected

the billionaires in Trump's administration are from the average American.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik said, quote,

Let's say Social Security didn't send out their checks this month.

My mother-in-law, who's 94, she wouldn't call and complain. She just

wouldn't. She thinks something got messed up, and she'll get it next month. A fraudster always makes

the loudest noise, screaming, yelling, and complaining. He then went on to say, quote,

anybody who's been in the payment system and the processes, who knows the easiest way to find the fraudster is to stop payments and listen,

because whoever screams is the one stealing, because my mother-in-law is not calling. Come on, your mother, 80-year-olds, 90-year-olds,

they trust the government. Okay, let's start with the important part. At this moment,

there is no known plan to suspend payments for a month. With that out of the way,

what an absolutely incredible statement.

The people who scream about not getting the money who paid into the system to get are fraudsters.

It couldn't be that not everybody has a billionaire for a son-in-law. It's that they're stealing.

Not that it's their only income.

It's their scamming.

Anybody who complains about it is a fraudster.

Social Security estimates say his hunch about who would complain is wrong.
