And who is going to stop him ?
Reid started parroting him yesterday with "no SS for you on 8/3" to the MSM.

Has the MSM published anyone from Congress saying that the President was incorrect in saying the SS checks may not go out on 8/3 ? Anyone ?

People in top positions are saying and doing things that they legally shouldn't and Congress is turning a blind eye to them.

It was done under the Johnson Admin, but hey, you were close in reinventing History. Some people might believe you.

What robbed the retirees are Individuals allowing government to take their money to "invest", and then allowing that money to be spent, rather than earning a return.

Disabled have nothing to do with it.
