Seniors face Social Security issues under Trump administration
Seniors are expressing concern over issues with their Social Security benefits amid actions by President Donald Trump and Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency. Reports highlight cases where benefits were suspended or incorrectly processed, causing financial distress. Leonard Johnson, 82, faced a wrongful claim of death, resulting in a significant withdrawal from his account. After navigating a complicated process, he managed to recover his funds but still awaits recent payments. Another retiree, James McCaffrey, experienced a suspension of benefits without explanation. These incidents have raised fears that the administration may be undermining Social Security, potentially leading to privatization efforts.
