🧑‍⚖️ Supreme Court Restores DOGE’s Access to Social Security Data—Blocks Transparency Requests The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) can once again access sensitive Social Security data, including private earnings, disability records, and health info. In a 6–3 decision, the Court overturned a lower court’s order that restricted DOGE’s reach—raising massive privacy red flags. 📁 At the same time, SCOTUS denied a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request aimed at exposing DOGE’s internal documents—granting total operational secrecy. 👁️‍🗨️ Translation: They get your data. You get no answers. Why This Matters: 🔓 Full access to sensitive data 📉 No public transparency 🧾 Millions of Americans affected 📢 Privacy watchdogs silenced Dissenting Justices Kagan, Jackson, and Sotomayor warned this opens the door to surveillance abuse, algorithmic bias, and unchecked power. BETTR Calls for: ✅ Full FOIA restoration ✅ New limits on federal data sharing ✅ Congressional oversight of DOGE ✅ A federal Data Rights Amendment 🔗 Read, repost, and join the fight This ruling isn't about “efficiency”—it’s about control. 📲 https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/06/06/politics/supreme-court-restores-doges-access-to-sensitive-social-security-data #DOGE #SupremeCourt #SocialSecurity #DataPrivacy #FOIA #BETTR #JSA2026 #TurnNYRed

📉 Social Security Cuts Benefit Clawback From 100% to 50% — But Experts Warn It’s Still ‘Devastating’ The Social Security Administration (SSA) has quietly reduced its controversial benefit clawback rate from 100% to 50% for some recipients who were allegedly overpaid. While this marks a small step toward fairness, advocates warn it’s not enough—especially for elderly or disabled Americans facing unexpected repayment demands. For many, the remaining clawbacks could still lead to evictions, food insecurity, and financial collapse. #SocialSecurity #BenefitClawback #RetirementCrisis #SSA #ElderRights #BETTRNews https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna204848
