Watched this happen from inside the walls today. They seem to have neglected to mention that ocreo was responsible for ADA compliance. It also provided services like sign language interpreters, assistants for people with visual or physical impairments.
I cannot imagine how some of my co-workers will be able to function tomorrow without those services. My heart breaks for them and for the ocreo staff.
Clearly the Secret Service is wasteful and unnecessary, because Trump's mandate shows that he is universally beloved and no one would wish to harm him. Save that money!
Clearly, support of civil rights, human or other, is inefficient across-the-board. Kill it! Kill it now, before it inefficiently (or otherwise) protects anything more!
The Social Security Administration today announced the closing of a component within the agency, the Office of Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity. Employees in this office will be put on administrative leave effective today.
“Our focus is supporting President Trump’s priorities, which include streamlining functions and prioritizing essential work,” said Lee Dudek, Acting Commissioner of Social Security. “Terminating the Office of Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity, and reassigning statutory responsibilities performed by this office, advances the President’s goal to make all of government more efficient in serving the American public.”
SSA will transfer responsibility for processing Equal Employment Opportunity complaints, reasonable accommodation requests, and other statutorily required functions to other SSA components to ensure compliance with existing legal authorities.
Thanks, missed that and was getting confused information from employees. Updated while walking, but will note it as a correction once I get back on my laptop.
I'm actually sort of surprised Trump didn't wait until recess and then make a ton of recess appointments* and then decide to make the recess permanent.
What with the film "Conclave" swiftly turning into a documentary, I'm also wondering if Trump will appoint himself as soon as a vacancy occurs.
*In this case, the technical legal term would be "a crapload"
David, it has already been replaced. Instead of DEI and equal recognition under the law as our DOS, we now have reverted to the previous operating system, white supremacism and male supremacy. White male cisgender heterosexual humans are now default humans and other varieties of humanning are not only not recognized, they are no longer required, and to be officially deprecated and eradicated.
Yes, indeed! Perhaps Democrats should make MAGA state that out loud. Explain, in the House, precisely why whites Christians are superior. Why integration is bad. The MAGA precursors - the Dixiecrats - had no trouble enunciating their racism.
It's utterly disgusting and UnAmerican Underbelly Swamp Party agendas to steal our $$$, our rights, our media, and OUR GOVERNMENT!!!!!! Fuck them. We'll get it all back. Watch 👁️
It's downright hilarious to watch all these bureaucrats scramble in a panic, completely oblivious to their own shortcomings and the absurdly bloated, self-serving nature of our federal government. This is exactly why Trump took the win. You all act like spoiled brats, lacking any self-awareness, and it's clear that the bias instilled by progressive leftists like yourselves runs deep. We see right through your antics and know exactly what you think you can get away with. You've turned the federal government into a corrupt beast that thrives on dysfunction and drags this country toward financial disaster. Seriously, those of you behaving this way shouldn’t even be allowed to work in a government that's supposed to serve everyone, no matter their political stripes. Your rhetoric—packed with lies, slander, and bigotry, not to mention a level of arrogance that's truly unearned—has been spoon-fed to you by the Democratic Party for far too long. Your lot doesn't just stir division; you amplify it like it’s a sport—it's disgusting. With your relentless support of the Democratic agenda aimed at taking down Trump, it's no wonder average folks are worried about their benefits and well-being after being bombarded by your nonsense. Democratic puppets come out daily to twist the truth, while their media machine floods every channel and social media feed with the same tired talking points designed to whip up fear and panic among Americans. This isn’t about genuine concern for anyone; it’s all about tarnishing Trump, Elon Musk, the Republican majority, and anyone who dares to back his agenda. Your only goal is winning—power is the only thing that drives you, and you'll stop at nothing to reclaim it. The Democratic Party of just 30 years ago would be horrified by the current version that would rather burn it all down than let Trump succeed. And here we are with government employees acting like marionettes for the Democratic regime. You shouldn’t be part of a government meant to serve the public, especially as career bureaucrats spreading lies and undermining the very leadership you're supposed to support. If you’re engaging in this nonsense, you should have packed up and left the moment Trump was elected. But we know how few principles leftists really have when it comes down to accountability. Shame on you all—if that concept even exists in your world.
😳 Strategic and/or in direct response to the Wilkerson ruling and similar complaints which essentially cost tax payers millions and opened the "floodgates" or subjected the Agency to similar filings or rulings. Hard to file a claim for civil rights abuses and adhere to strict timelines associated with filing when there is no civil rights office. FOIA request!

Equally, Congress is wasteful in an imperial presidency.
Lmfao 😅😆😅 BINGO 🤣 Populist Sociopaths
Government is not business but people need to learn that the hard way
LIKE Elon, Trump and MAGA NUTS Party!!???? SMH. 👁️
Too many regular people think govt can be run like a business. It's absurd.
So much shit being thrown around, it's impossible to keep track. Thanks Chris.

Except, of course, the poor discriminated against white minority.
😂 the who???? Lmfao 😂
(((That was sarcasm)))
I got notified about this earlier today. I am on the Social Security Administration mailing list. I get an email every morning. I am annoyed.
Saying what?

Social Security Dissolves Duplicative Office
Action is Another Step to Enhance Operations

>*In this case, the technical legal term would be "a crapload"
Now, to be precise are we talking a metric crapload or an imperial crapload? :-)
Imperial of course--apart from our hatred of the communistic metric system, you can't conquer Greenland without imperial measures.
Appoint himself to what?
The papacy.
This sucks..all those offices will now be over worked, because they are short handed...
If DEI is to be “officially” eliminated … what is it supposed to be “officially” replaced with?

All LOYALISTS and zero Ethics
Loyalists who have ceded any thinking to their Masters Musk & Trump.

Thanks, Law Dork, for your work. Each day it turns out that I discover something new that makes me even more embarrassed for my country.
OMG 😱 Oligarchy Autocrat Wannabe King 👑. I am so afraid they'll hack my disability social security check in rely on to live.
I have a DBL genetic mutation disorder. WTH is happening?!?! NO!!! 👎😞👎😞👎 I say NO to AUTOCRACY 😭

Civil Rights are rights to bother Whites. Blacks aren't even citizens...the 14th Amendment was illegally ratified.
