It is creating lots of bubbles. Why? This has never happened before...
Creating a lot of bubbles where? Check the connections.

Inside the machine, more than usual, and discharge. My tank is cloudy w/bubbles.

That's odd. I have the same skimmer. You should take out the pump and clean it up and make sure the airline hose is connected correctly. Good Luck.

My salinity is 1.027. I did add Ultralife Red slime remover. It did not say to turn off skimmer or any other special instructions.
Bingo Bango. that's your problem red slime remover causes your skimmer to act up. Turn the skimmer off for a few days and do some water changes when the slime remover does it's job. The skimmer should be back to normal soon. Good Luck.

try cleaning the sponge.
I removed the sponge before I even used it once based on recommendations.
