Freedom Baird<p>My dad died in September 2022 with $400 to his name, which was used to pay for his cremation.

Freedom Baird<p>Yesterday was my dad’s birthday. DOGE wrote me a letter this month. They want money back from him. </p><p>He had schizophrenia and was sometimes homeless. In his later years I was able to help him stay housed, and he received $180 of SSI monthly which went toward his rent in assisted living in a low-income bed.</p><p>But DOGE has realized that they overpaid him. So they sent a letter warning that some of that money may need to be returned.</p><p>The thing is, my dad is dead.</p><p>1/2</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/DOGE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DOGE</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SSI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SSI</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SocialSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialSecurity</span></a></p>
