Social Security and Treasury records, Office of Inspector General reports, and other documents, ultimately proving that there was no basis for the claims. She also noted that while the Biden administration had previously acknowledged some erroneous federal benefits payments to deceased individuals, the scale suggested by Musk and Trump was vastly exaggerated.
Hussein’s findings were later confirmed by the new acting Social Security commissioner—an open supporter of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)—who clarified that deceased centenarians were “not necessarily receiving benefits,” directly contradicting Trump and Musk.
OH LOOK...ANOTHER LARGE LIE.....WHEN WILL U UNDERSTAND THAT THE WORDS FROM THE DYNAMIC DUO R DISHONEST AND DISGUSTINGLY DUBIOUS....?????
Just like when the enviro nut jobs said Manhattan would be underwater in twenty years? And the scientists told those who listened, "We didn't say that! We said there was a 2% chance Manhattan would be flooded" And the media insisted on putting only the least likely option in the headlines.
Musk got his headlines and it is still true that illegals have been stealing American Social Security numbers when they are working. We had this happen to us so the IRS had to issue us a new number.

Another instance where the legacy media, and collectivists in general, are making claims never made by the original speaker on a subject. What Musk did say was that there were millions of individuals in the SS system that had their death status set to "false" that were well past any possibility of still being alive. What he didn't say was that most, or all, of those millions were still receiving benefits. Oh sure, you can totally parse what he said from the context in which he said it and then say that he was completely wrong, but examined in the context in which it was offered, no one to date has established that there are not, in fact, millions of dead people with their death status set to "False" in the SS system.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) has multiple databases, including one that gets sent to the Treasury Department each month outlining who is receiving payments.
According to agency statistics, of the 67 million people who receive Social Security benefits, only 0.1% are over the age of 100.
"So, when they're throwing around numbers like tens of millions of dead people are getting Social Security, well there's only 67 million total. What are they talking about? Half the people are actually dead? The numbers are so ridiculous. It's not true," said Kathleen Romig, the director of Social Security and disability policy at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
IT'S LIKE A KID SAYING 'OH,I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS A COOKIE JAR', I JUST WAS JUST LOOKING INSIDE TO SEE WHAT WAS THERE."........LET ME REPEAT, HE IS A SAVANT....YES HE WILL MAKE MISTAKES....BIG MISTAKES....AND PEOPLE WILL ACCEPT THAT THEY R THE GOSPEL TRUTH.....LET ME JUST HIT MY HEAD AGAINST THE BRICK WALL, ONCE AGAIN....IT FEELS SO GOOD WHEN I STOP.....CLUELESS IS NOT A CUTE COMEBACK[
