Federal judges have the power to deputize citizens as federal marshals in order to arrest those in contempt of court. I say gather all police in DC who are willing to follow their oath to the constitution and start making arrest. TODAY!

Arrest Dudek today and let the Supreme Court decide if he gets out or not.
A second more strongly worded letter, you say? Oh, they must be really scared now!
I'm sure they care about a strongly worded letter.
Even if they don't for its own sake, it is part of the record that gets appealed to the Supreme Court. This will be a hot potato!
If it makes it to SCOTUS, will Roberts drop it or let it proceed? Will be interesting to see what happens.
I think we can count on Barrett and the three liberals stumping for the SSA. Barrett may have a bee in her bonnet about the anti-abortion aspect of pro-life, but she seems to be a "good Catholic."
God grant that Roberts will climb aboard too.
seeing how things are going these days with the "executive" branch of govt, they are going to defy the judge's order...this administration doesn't give two (bleeps) about the judicial system...they will just do what they want and suffer the consequences later...
So start throwing someone in jail!! Thugs don’t respond to anything but violence!!
Oh, please, Dudek. Please fuck with Social Security. The first time 70 million people miss a check because of Donald Trump and Elon Musk, this shit show goes up in flames. Please. I dare you.
Its what Im waiting for!
J6 will look like a picnic.
Old people will be breaking hips left and right to demand that democrats give back their social security.
It's not just "old people"!
Middle aged sons and daughters of “old people “ will also not be pleased with the new arrangements.
Where I live and through work I can confirm we have LOTS of young white people on SSID for “lower back pain”. Wonder how they will handle losing their residence due directly to their Dear Leader? It’s an inconvenient truth that southerners hide and blame on minorities.
Ha ha....It won't be just older people in the streets. We all have a stake in Upholding the rule of law and Democracy.
No, they need to demand REPUBLICANS give back their Social Security…. THEY are the ones trying to steal and privatize it so they can give a $2T tax cut to billionaires. And REPUBLICANS are the ones in majority in House and Senate and have WH and SC as well.
Whoever Facebook tells them took away Social Security, took away Social Security
Whoever Fox News tells them took away Social Security. -- fixed that for you as boomers are not known for understanding or caring for digital social media.
Excuse me, Im nearly 70 dear.
Same here, and my husband is over 70. Liberal as hell as pretty tech savvy.
Sorry for typo. Should say and.
Hey you, I’m 74 and know full well how to use social media. We boomers are not as stupid as you think. Most of us were educated before alternative history was put in place! I don’t listen to Fox or any other propaganda news. I know how to research to know truths. Don’t fuck with us1
You realize that there are people as young as 62 collecting social security and are not so feeble minded to believe anything Fox news has to say.
While this is true, many "old people" (as mentioned in the earlier reply) believe without question that *everything/ANYTHING* that goes wrong is the fault of Democrats, no matter the circumstances or who is actually responsible. There will be many who blame Dems in spite of the truth of the matter.
I'm just now checking in on BlueSky today. What happened? Did Dudek have a temper tantrum and threaten to shut the agency down? I miss grownups.
Unpunished criminals RARELY stop committing crimes..
What?! But, Suzanne Collins told us he had learned his lesson?! 🙄
Ugh....She is my Senator. She is up for election in 2026. She's done. Maine is ANGRY at her.
Use Paper Ballots and count them by hand!
I wonder how she’s feels about having angered her constituents.
You had your chance in 2020 and forgot about Kavanaugh.
We’ve heard that before.
Vote Her Out!
We thought that after her Kavanaugh debacle. Sigh… Hopefully this time.
She's past considering any of her blatherings
Of all the things I may have forgotten in the last 5 yr. or so, I still remember her voice saying that. Guess no one on her staff told her abt the tweet telling her to learn about narcissistic personality disorder. Susan Collins is the one who needs to learn the lesson of DT.
The convicted sexual assaulter and felon on34 counts of fraud continues to commit crimes everyday!!

Look what I said was hyperbolic was talk of summarily shutting the ptogtam entirely As a senior dependent on SS and a social worker I know they want to privatize it and have for a long long time. I think that is a far more likely outcome than stiffing us all. I may be wrong, time will tell.
Not hyperbolic, any more than any of the other things the GOP and Trump have put in place. Place. We have a fascist government right now because people didn't respond to the reality, just like we are facing shutting down Social Security right now. I will never accept that I am being hyperbolic.
After what we have seen in the last few months of the Trump regime, I wouldn't underestimate the depths of Trump's depravity, lawlessness and urge for destruction and retribution. Our fears and anxiety over what is to come, are not unwarranted. Hyperbolic? No.
Fair enough

Trump is taking steps to eliminate the Education Dept. and other agencies. He is firing a massive number of knowledgeable workers that run other needed government agencies/programs. All to put money in his own and his friends pockets, and pay back debts he owes to people who have enabled him.
Yep
The EPA is going down also and will most likely be eliminated per Project 2025. Good luck with the city upstream dumping their shit in the river, just upstream from your drinking water intake pipe.
As I said I live in #Iowa
Blah, blah, blah... Let's stop the letters and proceed with ACTION!!!
Donald Trump is working to destroy everything Americans rely upon. This is a great betrayal. And not listening to the courts is the constitutional endgame. youtu.be/yVK75OHqDXo
Donald J Trump is the largest traitor to the USA in history.
Largest in more ways than one
Lenin might have been redeemable. Stalin wasn't. Lenin also suffers the blessings of dying early in power like JFK.
The only redeeming feature about Stalin was that, like myself, he used to smoke a pipe.😁
Fortunately, the Constitution is once again our friend.
Only if Trump is FORCED to follow it. He’s not listening to the DOJ
I'm wondering who is going to stand up to him? Why aren't people laughing in his face? What happened to the supposed 'American Excellence"?
That freak Steven Miller and he’s not a lawyer! He doesn’t have a bar license to lose!
Steven Miller. What a pile of infection dung.
Right, miller is not a lawyer, but he wants people to think he is.
You're looking at it.
I hope so. I'm seeing a lot of compliance ahead of time though.
The DOJ is not listening to the judges. The DOJ is supposed to be impartial but this DOJ is blatantly serving DT.
Correct. I meant the Judicial Branch i.e. Judges
Who enforces the Judicial Branch? This is the problem.
Big problem.
Trump isn’t listening to anyone. The question is who is going to stop him if Congress doesn’t step up and do its job
it will be us, the people that will stop him...
I sincerely do not think anyone has an answer for this question. I've asked on different posts. Will the Supreme Court stand by the law or by him? No one seems to know.
I know, it will be the people that will stop him!
I actually have more hope for the Supreme Court than I used to
Yes, this frightens me.
The DOJ is following Trump not the law.
* I specifically meant he’s not listening to Federal Judges, rather than the DOJ because the DOJ is a sick joke
Because Trump IS the DOJ and the DOJ is Trump.
Ever notice that if you pronounce "DOJ" as one word it sounds like DOGE???

That creature is a traitor to humankind period. How the so-called “most powerful country in the world” can just let this happen is a mystery that befuddles the entire world. He is not God, far from it. Yet, everyone normalizes him & bows down to him. Yep, befuddling.
He's the result of allowing generational wealth to control politics. It never turns out well. For the general population and as 1780s+ France showed cuttingly not even the rich.
Haha lol not true.
We have to include John Roberts. He and his court betrayed our country.
He was a brooks brothers riotor.
Biggliest ever.
He's a greater traitor than Benedict Arnold ever dreamed of. Firstly Benedict went from traitor to loyalist and lost. Secondly there wasn't a USA technically for him to be a traitor to, just his former friends and allies.
Funny thing is he's just a pawn. He isn't bright enough to be part of planning this destruction.
100%
"useful idiots"
Indeed, Project 2025 knew exactly who would follow their playbook. Elections have consequences, 🤞hoping Dems can win in 2 weeks the vacancies in Fla. & NY. We need the House & a change in Speakers!
Arnold was also a brave, fierce, and lauded soldier.
No bone spurs.
He should be expelled for life and forced to live in Russia.
Facts republikkkans 🤬 are killing us 🙏⚖️
Not that he doesn’t already have a huge fucking target on his back….. him and his friend musky a south African apartheid ketamine. Karen are both on the same list.🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
He ignores the courts and those of us that are getting screwed. Just don’t have the resources to stand up for ourselves anymore. We cannot afford as much justice as the one percent can. It’s that simple.
Trump will blame everyone else he hired when the pressure mounts. Since its a cult, Trump will never receive the fault in MAGA world
GOP and its maggot-militia needs be designated a terrorist organisation by democratic governments around the world.
Thank you judge!!!!!!
what a stupid time to be american
My Q is 'Who's going to do anything about it if Judge Hollander is ignored?' Trump's ppl thumbing their noses at all previous democratic conventions. Who CAN stop them? Who has their hands on the levers of the train? Putin HOWLING w laughter taking down the vaunted 'democratic giant' fr within.
You calmed a lot of people with your post Mr Cheney
@calandis.bsky.social Wanted to make sure you saw this. Judge Hollander had you and your husband’s back
Judge Hollander is my new hero
I simply can't believe what is happening. What do they expect us to do?
To obey.
Here's the head of the snake. The root of what we're experiencing right now, is this man. He may be quietly in the background, but his published words have inspired millions to act to where we are now. Very dangerous man for America. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcSi...
Yep!
Added #AltText b cause everyone should be able to reader or hereabout a judge doing their job.
Letters and recommendations are nice, but, not enough!
It's a JUDGE directing her ORDER, not a politician issuing a statement.
Dudek is a nobody trying to be a somebody, but he's picked the wrong team.
She will need to issue a third and a fourth. At what point exactly does the judicial branch start ENFORCING? Because that is what it will take to stop them.
Judge Hollander is awesome.
I wonder if their actions are cause for disbarment.
These people should remember, only Trump has immunity from this shit. And in 4 years, conservatives are not going to be in power.
And a f u to scotus for that massive screwup🤯
He can’t be prosecuted for it. That doesn’t make any if it legal according to the Constitution, and he can be stopped.
In electoral politics you earn votes. Democrats failed at this in November & are still failing to rise to the occasion minus 2 grifters. This really is a dem strategy let repubs burn the govt then tell people “you want more of this”?
Actually the immunity ruling says that the president has immunity only in actions that are not shared by other branches, So in reality even trump doesn't have this absolute immunity he claims.
They’ll never imprison a former president. He could murder someone on live tv and they still wouldn’t do it.
I so want to not agree but reality slaps me in the face.
Unfortunately i'm not saying that anybody's going to do anything about it but that is the actual wording of the ruling.
The old rules are dead and dying…. new rules will be fought over and possibly bought by blood and rage. The Right knows that they are in a “win or die” scenario with all of this and the other side is starting to understand that. Something will happen to him and his after this is all done….
USA didn't even have the intestinal fortitude to hang the Confederacy Traitors after the Civil War.
Which is such BS and exactly how we got ourselves into this mess. Hopefully we can push for a Dem nominee with some (metaphorical) balls next time.
You're 100% right, but that's astronomically dumb because, from here on out, criminals of all sorts will try to get that power for themselves. Are you a budding serial killer with the gift of gab? Run for US president, and all your dreams will come true if you say the right things to the rubes! 🤦♀️
Oh, he's not going to prison 😏
In reality, the immunity ruling applies to whatever the "court" says it applies to whenever they say it. It applies to whatever president they say it applies to whenever they say it. So, in reality, it means whatever they say it means whenever they say it and not an iota more or less than that.
I agree with you.Because our reality has vastly changed from When that ruling Was issued
At least our perception of reality has changed. He was no less dangerous then and the court was no less intent on seizing the power that ruling gave them. The way it was written, every case needs to be adjudged by them. They basically put a monster on a very thin leash that only they can hold.
So Roberts tried to make himself the supreme leader? Interesting.
No ... he's there because US is not a monarchy and Trump is not King. He's a wannabe dictator like his best friends.. Kim and Vladdie.
Oh, and it's not Vladdie. It's Vladdy, rhymes with Daddy. 😁
😹
Someone has to remind trump of that now and then. Might as well be Roberts. Uncle Clarence Alito sure as hell wouldn't do it.
There's no reasonable interpretation other than, outside of "core functions", which are not that many, they reserve the right to adjudicate what other activities qualify for immunity. They specify other categories but leave it up to the courts to define what activity fits what qualifying category.
On a case-by-case basis. So, outside of a few core functions, he gets immunity for what they say he does. And, they can change their minds. It's a very interesting ruling for those predisposed to authoritarianism.
Thanks for reminding me of that. I had thought Paul Weiss law firm was bending the knee due to blackmail over Epstein files, but it's possible felon-rapist-traitor-president is actually threatening lives in "official" capacity... 🤔 I'm starting to get the hang of this "worst" case scenario thinking.
Not me. I can’t quite articulate to my wife why I think my 14 y/o should have his passport as he flies across country to see grandparents. It’s extremely unlikely anything odd happens but if he can’t identify himself I just don’t know what some jackass may decide to assume.
The thing is, he doesn't need to resort to crazy stuff. All he has to do is prohibit them from dealing with gov't agencies and pull their security clearances if anyone he doesn't like or ever aggrieved him works there. He threatened Perkins-Coie with that. It's the death penalty for a DC firm.
Exactly. He only has immunity for actions that need only a president’s approval.
Any more than that he received a 'landslide manadate'. trump is the incarnation of Hitler's 'big lie' methodology - keep saying something until everyone is too exhausted to dispute it. It's not working.
That is, IF we have elections.
Hopefully two years.
IF dictator attempts fail and we have an election Trump has plans to be in office beyond 2028 The 22nd amendment only applies to being Elected as President Doesn't apply if he runs on ticket as VP with a figure head as pres The figure head steps down after inauguration and Trump's president again

Felon don has showed us how rotten America is by the sheer number of rotten men and women who work for him and enjoying their destruction of America immensely. We are rotten to our core. Astonishing
Good luck with that. :/.
*~ sending vibes to Hollander to put Dudek in jail forever ~*
Sadly I say let him shut it down I know a shit load of people who voted for these morans who would finally wake up to what is going on if this happens
Not willing to see friends, family and us impacted by it. You don’t frag your own to get those in the opposing army. Many that didn’t vote for him will be fucked and that’s a shitty thing to do.
Oh I definitely agree it would be a shitty thing I am just trying to figure out a way to wake people up. No one gives a shit about another person until it happens to them
No they won’t wake up. It will be pushed that a democrat judge forced DOGE to close down the SS offices and the MAGA will believe it. They’ll be screaming burn the courts down.
So, a stem warning indeed. Know what the status of Judge James Boasbergs court order is? Hers a warning. You're about to piss off 70 million people at once.
How many warnings!!! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
She needs to underscore that DOGE is not the government. If DOGE is "really" digital services, then let it do what digital services does--and no more. The pretension that DOGE has to fill the same role as the federal government is absurd and needs to be explicitly opposed.
I'm sure the White House will get even more enjoyment out of the third one that they ignore
Look up the meaning of DOGE in ancient times
The ancient meaning of "doge" derives from the Latin word "dux," meaning "leader," and refers to the highest official of the Republic of Venice, holding the position for over a millennium. Ok so he part of the Curtis Yarvin AI cult bullshit
That’s it, send more letters⁉️🤷🏻♂️
Dammit @kyledcheney.bsky.social What do you have against #AltText?
I put it in lower in the thread because he apparently doesn’t have a spare 20 seconds
Thank you! I added it when I can but I have severe brain limitations from Covid
Agreed. It would have been good to identify the image as something like "Judge Hollander letter to counsel of March 22, 2025. Full text available at the link."
Hallander has NO TIME for YOUR SHIT.
You know these f-kers are going to shut it down anyway.
Yes, Your Honor. Letter me harder. I’ll definitely abide by it this time. Not the first 20-30 letters, but THIS one is the one.
So do you just think she should fold? Roll over?
Aren’t the Marshalls service the enforcement arm of the judiciary? Where tf are they?
bsky.app/profile/lynn...
I saw a thread on here explaining that they have to go slow and give them every chance to show they're not complying so that the decision has the best chance of surviving appeals. Very frustrating to watch, though. Too bad the main mechanism for this situation (impeachment and removal) won't happen.
Dudek seems to want to spend a weekend in jail in Contempt of Court.
How much deference will superior courts give to the judge's TRO if Dudek insists on playing chicken with 70M+ folk's rent money? This position stinks of forcing the court's hand with the promise of widespread sadism and misery.
Bravo and another woman standing for law and order! Thank You Judge!
Judges can scream,” Don’t you dare do it!” all they want… The only way we’ll know they have any clout left at all is to watch the offenders in cuffs doing the perp walk on the 6 o’clock news!!
I have ideas.
I think the Judge made his point. He needs to turn off the news and go to bed.
Arrest Dudek. Hold in contempt
I'm saying this in all seriousness. If they mess with SS there will be lives lost. You take people's only source of income, who many times worked 40+yrs & paid into it, you will leave them homeless and starving. I will always be able to afford a couple tanks of gas.
Yet another judge that ain’t gonna take no guff from Trump’s Mob Lawyers.
Jail time

I guess the real question is...what is the judicial system going to do when they keep ignoring?
Would be a shame if Dudek's address was leaked.
Another letter?!?! Oh my! Seems to be working marvelously! 🙄
How many times are the judges going to count to three for this childish administration while it continues to ignore and destroy this country?
Arrest him. This is like watching a rerun of what the courts did with trump. Words don’t mean shit to these nazi’s.
She's doing the best she can for all SSA recipients, and yet the MAGA recipients want her to burn on the cross
📌
Acting Commissioner Dudek shutting down the SSA? If that happens, we will definitely enter into revolution territory very quickly…
It needs to happen sooner than dragging it out.
It's a Trumper Tantrum.
This is a crisis that demands action. The consequences of inaction are devastating, and the time to act is now. Cutting or eliminating SS, and the ground will shake as people rise up in protest. The masses will not stand by silently while their lifeline is jeopardized. We must push back now.
Or else what? When tf will these criminals face consequences?
WHY. IS. THIS. NOT. CONTEMPT?
Thank Goodness we still got our Judges that still believe in our rights!!! Now please , let’s remove the corrupt Supreme Court Judges!!!
Millions of American toss & turn at night. Pins& needles during the day worrying if Trump, Musk & Republicans are going to take away their retirement income they have worked & paid for all of their lives.
Add me to the list, with my stroke-survivor husband I'm trying to not reveal the growing panic I feel in waves throughout the day and sleepless nights...and failing miserably at it.
It’s making people literally sick with worry. I know I am.
Arrest him.
#collaborateur
I think the majority of the country would have something to say to this guy and it wouldnt be good !
If you think they are violating your privacy at SSA … Just imagine what they are doing at NSA.
Honestly 😂😂😂😂
It’s time to force this admin to adhere to the rule of law and the courts! When they violate them - prosecute, arrest, do whatever it takes to stop the outright abuse of power!
I can see a very angry judge soon. Let them fool around like this and see where it gets them. I wouldn't want to be them.

There shouldn't be a SECOND letter. Are we waiting for a third strike? This isn't baseball.
Thanks to everyone who is working on this. I am 79. Who knew I'd live so long but I've been working since I was 12 years old. I put myself through college & raised 3 good kids. I deserve the Social Security Ive earned & depend on. It. Thank you. Thank you. I need it much more than Elon Musk & trump.
I see you. So many of us are in the same boat. We were raised with “this is how it goes.” And we did. Thank goodness for social security. This crazy stress making shit is unnecessary. You shouldn’t have to be thinking about this at your age. You should be living in peace & comfort.
I left our small town & found out later he told everyone that I caused the bankruptcy by demanding too much. I got through school on a part time job & student loans. I did it in record time. I taught for years but could never save for old age. I do depend on SS. a garden & chickens. Seriously.
I like that you garden and have chickens. I used to do those things. Maybe I can again someday if I get my money.
It sounds like you lived your life and worked hard. I only have a teeny tiny pension that I haven’t drawn yet. I’m waiting for SSDI (disabled 5 years ago). Other than that I worked my whole life. A lot of self employment but I did pay into social security. No other retirement. Time will tell.
i understand.Ex is a CPA but I ran businesses we had. Nothing huge but I didn't put anything into SocSec. I got a degree but I taught so I could take care of my son alone. Teacher pension is small too so I struggle. He drained all our businesses & went bankrupt on purpose, just like trump.
I divorced after 23 years of abuse cuz I was taught marriage is forever but he spent every dime. I didn't know. He's a CPA & handled all our money. He offered a settlement instead of alimony. My attorney said he's never go bankrupt cuz it would kill his practice. He went bankrupt & I got 0.
I’m so sorry. *Sigh
Bless you. I wish you the best. Maybe it gets better now. We know trump is relentless but he's also a coward when he thinks he's up against real courage. I pray he's gone soon.
I don't regret my life. I loved teaching but it's such a poorly paid profession. I was handicapped for years. I finally had surgery but lost some of my left leg. I can walk with a cane now so I feel lucky.I was so trusting but I can look in the mirror. I don't see how trump & his minions can do that
Now is the time to show your support to the under privileged/ disabled community. I’ve been trying to find community support 🥺
Sorry this happened to you. I’m disabled too without income for 4 years.
Are you ok? How do you survive?
amen
This is insanity! I’m 60 and also worked since I was 13 years old. 2 kids, one step kid. I have given back way more in taxes than I ever received! They better make this situation right!
Your taxes have paid those billionaires. No one can claim they earned a billion dollars if we are pretending people haven't earned social security. No one can even claim they earned 10 million dollars in that case as far as I'm concerned. Eat the rich if social security checks are even a penny short
I’m with you. 69 years old here. I never would have imagined I’d be divorced at this age after 35 years of marriage and living on a small pension and Social Security. Yet, here I am. I depend on Social Security.
It's been awhile now but my ex left us w/ nothing. He spent all the money. Our home went into foreclosure. He wrote me off in bankruptcy but reaffirmed w/his buddies. He left me, my 8yr old & 2 kids in college with NOTHING right in the middle of their college semesters. He's still golfs, like Trump.
Oh no, that is horrible. We will fight as long as it takes
God help us. Watching Chuck Grassley today on You Tube. He's getting real questions that address Social Security. Dear God, what would we do without it.? Musk & his gang have no damned business doing what they're doing. At least ppl are fighting. Did you see Bernie & AOC? Someone is fighting for us
I agree 100% that an unelected individual has no damn business doing what they’re doing. Yes, I did see Bernie and AOC 🔥✊🇺🇸 I’m doing what I can from home while I recover from bicep muscle and Rotator cuff surgery. Keep on keeping on
I’m starting to wonder why there hasn’t been a lawsuit to completely enjoin Musk from what he is doing in all agencies. This is a pretty blatant Appointments Clause violation.
Go get them Judge!
Because that's what's needed strongly worded letters🙄😵💫.
Judge Hollander is doing everything she possibly can including these sua sponte letters to prevent Trump Musk from using her ruling as disinformation and a scare tactic. Fantastic!!
"Everything she can possibly do" is to send letters? Because we might need a bit more than that.
She’s a judicial officer bound by ethical and legal rules so it may not seem like much, but believe me it’s creative as well as legal and ethical. The rest of us can do the other lifting that needs to be done to oppose Trump Musk MAGA!!
Yeah, those legal means don't add up to much if nobody is able to enforce them.
You need to start a huge goup of volunteers, and get the judges to swear you in as court enforcement officials then start arresting the b@stards.
Yeah because judges are like the ones in Dredd. C’mon, man.
As Bernie always said it’s not he or politicians that need to fight it is Us Even though we will get pepper sprayed, arrested, have no authority, or power, or even be allowed in those buildings! I fight- I send letters mass and solo protests & yelling into the void Yet get chastised by team blue!
They also need to fight cmon now
As a very sick, disabled woman with a rare genetic disease, people need to understand that SS isn’t just for retired seniors. It is for disabled people like me and disabled children. Most of us are already so far below the poverty line that one missed check will put us on the streets. #SaveSSI&SSD
YES holy shit. My 30-something friends always get annoyed when I talk about being scared of being able to afford living, and guys are you willing to drop the dough to keep me alive? No? Then listen up and get angry with me b/c SOMEBODY is going to have to push my chair in the marches.
Well this made me tear up 🥹 I’m so happy to find people who resonate with this spark of resistance. We need each other now more than ever. Before I was gifted a power scooter, a dear friend pushed me through rain and snow. If we were in the same place I’d tow you with my scooter anytime! 💜♿️✨

This gives me hope.
So....what is she going to do if the acting SS dipshit does? Throw that person behind bars?? What is she going to do.
Sternly worded letters always work on brutal Lawless fascists .. 🙄
Remember folks, Trump is the only one with immunity. All these other motherfuckers can go to hell. Even though they may get pardoned, the judges are shining the light on the darkness. We appreciate that.
Bam!💥. Fuck you Dudek!
I'm not a lawyer but i don't think that judges generally sound so openly pissed in their issuances
Yup she's really close to telling them to bring their toothbrushes to court next time. Federal judges do not put up with bullshit, it's their way or the highway
Trump and Doge are being purposely obtuse. Stupid asses, they want to break everything, get everyone up in arms and declare martial law.
She’s pissed.
I wonder what the consequence will be when they move ahead as planned. I have little faith, but I’m hoping for the best.
KISS MY ASS !
Uh....Howard or me? I normally don't kiss ass...unless maybe you look like Jason Mamoa. In that case, od make an exception. 😆 🤣 😂
Fuck this total POS!
I've been asking who's responsible for enforcing the Federal judges rulings. Well it's the executive branch who enforces the Federal Courts rulings. So now my question is what happens when the executive branch is gone rogue n refusing to enforce the Rulings. That's the Constitutional Crisis we're in
the court deputizes court marshall/local police/national guard to enforce court orders when DOJ refuses.
DOJ is having a terrible, no-good day in courts today. This is the third dressing down by a federal judge in the last 12 hours.
Put him in prison! Think 90 days should at long last drill it into their heads they don't rule the country and never will.
Will the 3rd letter be in all-caps and bold?!
They're just looking for any excuse to kill Social Security. "The judge made me do it" would be only the most absurd one.
📌
We need more than letters! Dudek should be fined and arrested for contempt of the American people!
Seems to me that these people need to be in custody!! Why so many “warnings”?? The time to act is NOW!!! DO SOMETHING!!!
Dude’s been belly up for DOGE, I don’t trust him.
Where does the US military stand? It'll come to that question sooner or later...
The does not bode well, if the sensible people leave...
Many of the good military members with a conscience are foregoing their lucrative retirements in order to get out of the military ASAP. They served under Trump once already and now see the military threats being made to our allies and our own civilians and they want out.
Awesome 👏👏👏
Dudek’s response to the original filing, which seemed to be “well, aren’t we all DOGE deep inside anyway?” would be absolutely bananas if it weren’t because it’s immensely clear that the intent of the Trump Admin is indeed to shut down Social Security entirely.
Please save #socialsecurity!
Time to start jailing these idjitts.
Really should only take one letter 😤
@alt-text.bsky.social
Or else what? "I've read the judge's decision, now let him enforce it!' -- Jackson
It's time to arrest Trump and throw him in prison!
Well, I've never encountered this before, EVER, when I tried to access my Social Security account.
I got this same error message. It's after 4:15 am ET, so if the time frames shown are accurate, they're not being adhered to.
What state allowed this??
This is Federal so that would be Trump allowed this.
A lot of people are reporting about this in many social media outlets. Did the government violate the federal court order and continued to shut down social security for the elderly and disabled? Even when they were told not to by a sitting federal judge? @msnbc.com @maddow.msnbc.com @apnews.com
Trump announced that if DOGE doesn't get access then NOBODY will receive their Social Security. I think it's really time that everybody stopped thinking that normal things will stop him, like courts. He was court ordered to turn those planes to El Salvador around and he didn't & no consequences.
Here's a source. www.rawstory.com/despicable-t...
Another piece of paper. That will make them behave.
Ok? She has to give them the rope to hang themselves first.
The judges, up to this point, are saving America as we know it.
This is for all the marbles, folks. 70 million SS recipients are holding their breath. The rule of law is on the line. Our country is teetering. Judge Hollander has to go to disbarment for DOJ lawyers or suspension from professional licensing.
Don’t forget if it happens a lot of magat might rise with us. That is the only way we can win. We need to stand with them and find common ground. Let them admit they are harmed too. And they have the guns.
Absolutely agree with you! Here's one of my favorities to fit today's situation.
Just put him in jail already. Deputize someone to do it.
Data protection plays a crucial role in safeguarding the fundamental rights and freedoms of data subjects, natural persons, human beings, people. whoisdtrust.me #iamdtrust #dataprotectionmatters #trustmatters
Judge Hollander standing up for the people. Hero!
When does this become a constitutional crisis?
Imo We've been in a constitutional crisis For almost 2 months the question is When do we cross the line into an actual dictatorship, Because we're absolutely dancing on that line
Doing the tango!
Correction...when does this current constitutional crisis force us to actually stand up and fight?
You are right to correct me!👍👍
Thank you for your diligence and for keeping us in the loop. Grateful.
If you can’t indict Trump you can indict the people doing his bidding! Do it!
I'm sure the DOJ will get right on that. 🤣🥺
Only if a state crime is broken because the DOJ isn't going to indict themselves.
It is some comfort to see a judge reprimand a rogue and derelict Maga appointee .. though there is still a very long road back to sanity.
He will shut it down Trump grants pardon
They think they are smarter, hell no. The dumb ass dudek is a clown.
When will the letters stop, and there will be actual consequences?
When will people understand that this administration does not care what any judge says to them? Until people are put in jail, this will continue spiraling
There is s process to putting people in jail, if you do it lawfully. The courts will follow the process. Then will come the showdown.
But they need to expedite their efforts!
I hope they happens but somehow I don’t believe it will.
pathetic
Yes. 👏👏 You can't site the rule of law as grounds for stopping the destruction and then not follow the rule of law. While it takes time and resources, etc., these steps are important in restoring the rule of law to its rightful place OVER the president and all of his minions seeking to subvert it.
That doesn't mean our juduciary should not do its job. BTW, who is left that is going to arrest them?
Agree!
Most of us DO understand that. What has to happen now is these judges--unlike congress--have to walk the walk and back their shit up with the consequences they would apply to EVERYONE. Contempt charges, fines, and jail time, backed by LEO. Ultimately this WILL come to the military taking a side.
This administration seems to want to be locked up
The stupidest people always think they're the most cunning.
It's unbelievable that it has taken two notices...the administration is doing its utmost to defy the law.
They flat out DID ignore the judge's orders regarding the illegally deported Venezuelans.
They're trying to push it.. see how far they can stretch the system before it brakes, which would suit them, or fights back, which would suit them even better..
This is 100% a narcissistic tactic too. Push the boundary, pull back, wait a bit, push a bit further. Repeat. What’s most disturbing is how many people/groups are actually caving to the abuse.
This is absolutely terrifying. How quickly does this country unravel when 1/5 can no longer survive. I fear all compromised data DOGE has, adding this piece, will be used against “the left” first. Allowing the right to shoot and/ot imprison all the homeless starving criminals, before moving on..
It won’t just be the elderly and disabled. This will collapse nursing homes, hospitals, businesses. Cascading failures as more and more HUMAN FUCKING BEINGS lose the right to live, selectively because money. Fucking demons all, intent on dismantling society for full collapse of country before world.
We didn’t need any evidence before to know DT, EM, JDV & the rest of Republican politicians, billionaires care ZERO abt human beings’ lives in the U.S. or elsewhere. Money & power are their only loves. DT cares only abt EM who gave him the WH & keeps him out of prison.
Just like Covid... all those people died on trumps watch...never forget! He does not care about anyone...
Oh my god, I think I just felt the tiniest spark of hope
Trump's minions think they do not have to adhere to court orders or judge's orders. It will take a 5-4 decision from Chief Justice Roberts to correct this assumption. Disrespect for federal courts, and ignoring their orders is the beginning of the goal of any dictatorship.
As I have been saying. Not holding my breath for anyone in the administration having consequences.
And if he does? What are the consequences? Contempt? Still worth it for them.
Shutting down SSI would be the quickest way to end DOGE and potentially the administration. My guess is Trump is telling him and Lutnick to STFU.
Every time I write to Tillis and Budd now, I ask them what he has on them or what they are being paid for their loyalty to this bullshit. I have also informed them that he doesn't need them much longer. Soon, he'll toss them aside, gut Congress because they are so inefficient.
lol I love it. glad to see at least someone understands what’s going on around here
Share it! Get the word out to everyone! Share it on TikTok!! #BuildtheResistance #WakeupAmerica More pushback on the right wing propagandists! Signups @ #mobilize.us and #fiftyfifty.one for protests info Attend town hall meetings letters-boycott-strike-blackouts #5Calls #Bluestorm BUZZZ
Shutting down the SSA is equivalent to shutting down a major infrastructure service, like shutting down an electric company or a gas company. That's a significant national threat that nation state actors do to disrupt the US and cause terror. Send the damn Federal Marshals to reign him in.
When is someone going to dox Dudek?
How do they sleep?
They aren’t going to obey, anyway. They should be forcefully removed from the buildings and all that illegally obtained information destroyed. Absolutely nothing on those machines is your private information.
As of 10:37 PM, Dudek changed his stance according to this post. But how slimy are these vermin to even think to do something like this in retaliation to a legal order? abcnews.go.com/Politics/act...
Finally. Maybe the president has immunity but nobody else does. Go down the line!
They want widespread protests so Trump can declare martial law, and cancel elections
Bravo, Judge!
I hope the message is loud and strong b/c they don't care what judges say or rule. They will defy until they die. TFG told them so. So they must! It's OUR money. The govt just saved it for us. It is not theirs.
Pretty ballsy of him in the first place.
ARREST THE FUCKING TRAITORS BEFORE THEY START A WAR IN THE USA!
NOTHING matters if they have no means to enforce.
Definite lack of trust, smart judge
I so badly want to send this to my Silent Gen F47 MAGA parents who probably remain in denial ….. but I won’t. FAFO
I think the more we try to educate them, the more they will dig in their heels. Best to let them learn the hard way. It has more punch.
Agreed, they are like children who won’t listen and must learn the hard way
Armed guards who answer to the courts. deploy them to SSA now. Im tellin ya.
Can she order him arrested?
She can. But the marshals work for Trump.
Musk must really want to spend his weekend feeding the Social Security Administration to the wood chipper.
Judge Hollander is now one of my heroes.
It’s not a “No” from the court.
We are dealing with petulant man-babies.
If you already know that in the end nothing's ever going to happen to you for giving a judge the finger, why should you get excited about it?
Hope the law keeps holding. Thanks for posting.
The thing about being in control of the white house, both houses of congress and the supreme court is that when you screw up, you really can't blame it on the other side. They are certainly trying. Let's go already. Skip that check, then cut your own taxes. Find out what happens.
Time to throw someone in jail over this. Dudek need to chill out in a cell and rethink trying to extort our judicial system.
Sounds like the current SSA administrator is a trump servant rather than a public servant.
If they do this, everyone involved better sleep in Kevlar and hire 24/7 security because their own people are gonna come for them.
Oh' a Second letter. Well maybe Trump won't use it as Toilet paper. Fuck it. If Court orders don't matter, then nothing matters.
Yeah, this and the plane thing are tests. If they ignore the courts and get away with it we’re done for. They’ve got their own private army blocking entry to the buildings
Yep. The motherfuckers!
I'd like to talk to an attorney about a class action lawsuit if grandma and grandpa's Social Security payments stop.
Please start throwing people in jail sometime soon.
He wants Canada ? He is a month away from cival war .
If that long
How about we send in armed individuals to ensure that the orders from the court are carried out?
They are fucking with the judge! Isn't there some law against that?
The bastards are pushing every limit. I hope FAFO catches up with them in a big way. The question, is who will physically enforce it?
Against doge employees 🤔
According to Gruppenführer Miller, a judge's ruling can only be used against a sitting Democratic president.
Oh guarantee they do it now.
As someone who is admitted to practice in all four federal districts in Texas, the Fifth Circuit, and the Supreme Court, I've never seen anything like that from a federal judge.
It's a good sign for us though right?
Yes. Putting a federal district judge on the warpath against you is not a good idea. I think all the rulings against Trump and his team's contemptuous responses are putting SCOTUS in a box. I don't think a majority of the Court will sacrifice the entire Judicial Branch for him.
Agreed. Also the people who bought the court aren’t the ones running MAGA at the WH. Yes there are connections, but Leo’s goal is to control society through the judiciary, he spent 2 decades getting a court he wanted. There is no way he did that to turn around and relinquish control to a president.
There are always cracks in any revolution. I'm not saying chaos is good, but this clown show is inept. Only thing holding it together is the Trump myth. I don't think he has the skill to manage it for an extended time. The kicker is the $35T debt. If that becomes insecure, it's very bad.
Thanks for your response!
So, who will enforce her judgement if she is ignored?
So far that graph isn't representing what has been happening. They ignored previous court orders and nothing happened. I mean so far the find out stage is an expressed concern from Susan Collins and collaboration from moderate Dem leadership.
Q is how SCOTUS rules on any relevant issue. If they tell Trump/Musk, "You've gone too far," and T/M ignore that, I think that would draw "some attention." If SCOTUS were to acquiese, we're in for a long winter, and the USofA is dead. If it's Trump vs. SCOTUS, .... well, I don't have a prediction.
I'm thinking of stocking up on canned goods, acquiring a generator, and putting in a supply of food.
Honda makes a great portable generator.
👍
Almost all the food trucks in Los Angeles go with the portable Honda's.
No one
I don't think Bronson is available. Ahem ...#FreeLuigi
The Adjuster! That's the superhero we need!
Federal Judges are able to deputize others—for example, probation officers, national guard, etc. for civil cases ( not criminal).
Federal judges can deputize lower court lawyers to handle legal things that would normally fall under the purview of the Department of justice, if the DOJ refuses. They can also deputize other officers – as you mentioned – probation officers, national guard, state, police etc to do Fed Marsh jobs.
Thank you!

This fight will end up in SCOTUS. Hope impeachment follows.
The SSA is today’s Ft Sumter. Oh, there are others to be clear, like Department of Education, etc. But fuck with SSA, the Medicare premiums deducted from that- did Ludick even consider that part? Health care is tied to that monthly SS check? 70 million, huge amount of that healthy, many vets. FAFO
True. If a person's SSA check stops, they will be responsible for paying the Medicare premium every month in order to keep their health insurance. With what, IDK. Some ppl on social security live month to month with no other income.
Cruelty is the point
That can go both ways and it will.
🙏🙏🙏
I love this judge.
So cute. Judge thinks she's dealing with normal people, and not with a bunch of fucking criminals who are sent to her court only to mock her and bamboozle her until the whole thing goes away.
The Republican Party have no intention to follow the rule of law.
Unfortunately so, we can thank The John Roberts Supreme Court for their crappy decisions. We need to have court reform with term limits.
Truth 😩
I can't tell you the level of PANIC I'm under worrying if I'll get my SS check next week. I want to sue Trump and Musk for emotional distress and torture!
I'm down for a class action.
I'll join you 💪👍
I'm in.
Next week's checks are already in the hands of the banks.
These madmen are going to throw social security recipients into utter financial chaos and in many cases ruin which is going to collapse the economy depending upon how long they play this sick game of chicken. WTF are we continuing to let happen here? Elected maga needs to be hounded out of office!
Ask maga on social media how they’ll make room in their homes for their senior family members who Trump causes to lose their homes & if they have enough money to pay th medical bills of those senior family members. DT’s doing it to them,too. Maga might say “never”, but they will THINK, picture it.
Hush now, child! For poppa TrumpMusk is going to pay us up to $5k for swallowing their crap & ratting on our brothers & sisters. The more you rat the more you get paid!! Yay!!

www.newsweek.com/doge-stimulu...
So, to get $5K, all you need to do is snitch on your family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, strangers for fraud. The govt has to balance the budget. And about two or three hundred thousand people need to lose their job. Millions need to lose SS. The dept of education closes. Planes have to crash..
Wth...like nazi germany...maga = german SS
Exactly!!
Has DOGE saved anything or are they just driving up the cost? From what I've seen.. Driving up the cost.
Because the clown in fact, has not only NOT saved a legit dime. Over a billion dollars have gone missing since he and his idiots started.
Throw Dudek’s ass in jail if he shuts down the SSA!
He needs to be thrown in jail just for Threatening to do so.
Let them know up front that jail time is a reasonable reaction if their non compliance.
I'm planning for my husband's Social Security to stop coming next month. We are very fortunate in that I'm significantly younger than him, so I'm still working ... for now. But even if I manage to keep my job, losing nearly $2k/month is going to be really tight. No extras for us anymore.
