Elon Musk and his team at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) uncovered a “jaw-dropping” fraud in the Social Security system. DOGE volunteer and Valor CEO Antonio Gracias explained on “Fox & Friends” that millions of noncitizens received Social Security numbers during former President Joe Biden’s tenure.
As for finding the fraud and eliminating it, “None of this would have happened without President Trump,” said Gracias. “President Trump had the courage to allow us to go across databases. He signed an executive order. It’s never been done before, where agencies could talk to each other and databases could talk with each other.”
“That allowed us to connect all this data, to find these people across the system, across the benefit system, all the way to the voting records. It really took a lot of courage,” he continued.
Over the weekend, Gracias joined Musk at a get-out-the-vote rally in Wisconsin where they highlighted a chart showing a steady year-over-year increase of ineligible people receiving social security numbers, reaching more than 2 million in FY 2024, which ended on Sept. 30. FY23 saw roughly 1 million noncitizens issued Social Security numbers, as did FY25, which began in October and will end in September of this year, reports Fox News.
“We found that there were just about five-plus million of them that came to the country as illegals, were given various forms of parole or allowing [in] the country, and they got through an automatic system, Social Security numbers, so they could get into our benefit systems,” Gracias said.
“And we tracked that through and found that they were on benefit programs,” he noted. “And just because we were curious, we then looked to see if they were on the voter rolls, and we found in a handful of cooperative states that there were thousands of them on the voter rolls and that many of them had voted.”
Gracias said that DOGE confirmed 1.3 million individuals who secured a fraudulent Social Security number received Medicare benefits, too. “
When asked about the amount of money the agency has saved American taxpayers as it pertains to Social Security fraud alone Gracias replied “It’s in the billions.”
“You saw the fraud on the phone lines itself. That was about $1.5 billion, and I would guess with Social Security already, we’re north of $10 billion.”
Every person involved in this matter should be exposed, prosecuted and jailed. This theft process is JUST ONE SEGMENT of the criminal plan to destroy our country.
Agree, this is fraud with intent to steal. Prison is too good for some of these low-life vermin, the leaders need especially harsh sentences, since this amounts to treason against America.
I WANT TO THROW UP LOOKING AT THAT CRIMINAL SEX-ADDICT FACE!!! PUKE!!!!! ALL INVOLVED NEED TO BE PROSECUTED, FINED, REMOVED FROM ALL PENSIONS & BENEFITS ESPECIALLY ENTIRE BIDEN FAMILY +++ ALL ILLEGALS NEED TO BE DEPORTED WITH DOCUMENTS WITH ICE TO NEVER BE ALLOWED TO ENTER USA – EVER!!!!!!!!
Cut them off! We should not be paying with an American citizen benefit to non citizens.
The Damokkkrats will cry about granny being cut off Social Security when they are pi$$ing away our money to ineligible recipients.
