Iranian hackers threatening to hack into the top 3 credit bureaus and wiping Americans debt… and I just wanna know who I gotta speak to in order to expedite this.

Watched “Annie” (1982) with the kids and it was so weird to see the president singing optimistically about the government helping people, while serving tea to an orphan in a White House he was not tearing down
