President Trump has directed Elon Musk and the DOGE team to identify fraud at the Social Security Administration.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cThey haven\u2019t dug into the books yet, but they suspect that there are tens of millions of deceased people who are receiving fraudulent Social Security payments. So their goal in going into the Social Security Administration is to identify three things,\u201d Leavitt added.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>&#8230;Leavitt went on to describe DOGE\u2019s and Musk\u2019s main goal regarding the SSA\u2019s potential waste, saying that the \u201clegacy fake news\u201d was attempting to \u201cfear\u201d people into believing the Trump administration had other motives.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cNumber one, to identify duplicate payments and to end them. Number two, to identify payments that are going to deceased people who are no longer living and should no longer be receiving that money,\u201d Leavitt said. \u201cNumber three, to protect the integrity of this system for hard working Americans who have been paying into it their entire lives. So, rest assured to all of the people watching your show tonight, if you paid into the system, honestly, you will continue to receive your Social Security tax checks.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is definitely time to make sure that everyone entitled to get payments from Social Security gets them and that everyone who is not entitled to get payments from Social Security does not get them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elon Musk shared this on X: These are the ages of people currently listed on the Social Security payment list.
