Former President Joe Biden claimed to be “breathing” the amount of damage and “destruction” that the administration of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, has inflicted on the United States Social Security program.
“They are shooting first and pointing later,” Biden said in the defenders of the disabled defenders in Chicago, in their first speech after their mandate.
The former president implied that the Trump administration was dismantling social security to benefit the country’s technological companies.
Social Security is a Federal Program of the United States that offers reform income, disability insurance and benefits for spouses and children of deceased workers.
The program was a victim of Trump’s efforts to reduce costs and workforce, together with the Government Efficiency Department (Doge), led by Elon Musk billionaire.
More than 7,000 workers are part of the planned high, together with the plans to impose more rigorous identity proof measures for help beneficiaries.
Musk himself called the program “The largest Ponzi scheme of all time” in the podcast Joe Rogan Experience.
Obama also criticizes Trump
Biden, 84, is not the only renowned Democrat in criticizing the recent actions of the Trump administration.
On Tuesday, former President Barack Obama described the decision of the White House to freeze more than $ 2 billion (1.7 billion euros) in the financing of Harvard University as “illegal and clumsy.”
Trump defended freezing because the institution of higher education refused to make the changes he demanded in his hiring, admission and teaching practices.
The president of the United States said his changes were fundamental to combat anti -Semitism in the University Campus. Obama has repeatedly accused American universities not to protect Jewish students during the protests against the war in Gaza.
In a publication on social networks, Obama encouraged other American universities to follow Harvard and not give in to Trump’s demands.
“Harvard gave the example to other institutions of higher education,” Obama wrote. The University has assumed “concrete measures to ensure that all Harvard students can benefit from an intellectual research environment, rigorous debate and mutual respect.”
