    this GitHub discussion thread is as well credentialled as DOGE to identify and root out fraud, maybe more

    “There was an audit in 2023 by the SSA Inspector Generalabout number holders over the age of 100 with no record of death on file. They identified just shy of 19 million. They were able to find death certificates and records for a couple million, but most couldn’t be verified. But here’s the important part that Musk is omitting: Of the 19 million over the age of 100 without a verified death record, only 44,000 number holder accounts were actually drawing social security payments. That means only 44k people aged 100+ still collecting SS, which is a more logical situation.”


    “Statistically, it is reasonable there are 44K people older than 100. It represents .013% percent of the population which is in line with the 100+ populations in the UK, France and Germany.”

    Trump's war on science

    Public research is getting rekt

    One fired program officer in the geosciences resigned from a tenured faculty job after getting official notice that they'd been hired permanently by NSF. "My official paperwork in the system reflects that I'm permanent, I've not been issued any new do ents, not had any formal communication from NSF telling me otherwise," the officer said.


    That officer left the job security of a tenured position "to give back to my country and the scientific community … certainly not [for] the pay or the workload," they said. "These are some of the hardest working people I've ever met, and everyone is trying to be the very best stewards of tax dollars we can be."


    One fired employee NPR spoke to worked on ensuring that existing grants were actually doing what the researchers set out to do. "Without people like me, there's nobody to oversee that external evaluation or accountability."

    With fewer staff, grant reviews and awards will slow down or stall out, employees told NPR. Ultimately, that will delay new discoveries that could improve people's lives or scientists' understanding of the natural world.

    "These arbitrary firings and failure of leadership directly impact the agency's ability to evaluate and fund good science," says Mary Feeney, a public policy researcher at Arizona State University. "[It] is demoralizing for those who remain at the NSF, and will negatively affect the government's ability to attract talent to public service in the future."

    Trump acknowledges ‘inflation is back’ but blames Biden

    President Donald Trump, in an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity that aired Tuesday night, acknowledged that inflation is on the rise again — bucking his campaign promise to lower prices immediately upon taking office. But he said the Biden administration’s runaway spending is to blame.

    “Inflation is back,” Trump said. “I had nothing to do with it. These people have — have run the country. They spent money like nobody has ever spent.”

    Trump is right about the return of inflation: Consumer prices rose much more than expected last month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported last week — buoyed in particular by surging fuel and egg prices. January marked the biggest monthly increase since August 2023. And prices were 3% higher year-over-year for the first time since June 2024.

    The U.S. Department of Transportation is withdrawing its support for New York City's controversial congestion pricing plan and will discuss with the state and stakeholders how to end the program, the agency announced Wednesday.

    I think the threat originated with Israel but, the President repeated it or, the other way around, I'm not sure who said it first. You'll notice, however, in his statement he allowed that Israel could 'override' it -- and, they did.

    Israel threatens ‘all will break loose’ is Hamas fails to free hostages as planned

    The President's first statement:

    I'm speaking for myself, Israel can override it."


    The President's response to a question about the upcoming deadline:
