Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has exposed shocking fraud in federal programs. Taxpayer dollars were wasted on unemployment claims for people who don’t exist—like those not born yet or over 115 years old. Musk called it “crazy” and said he had to read the numbers multiple times to believe them. The findings show why draining the swamp is critical to stopping Democrat-led waste.
DOGE uncovered $69 million paid to 9,700 people with birth dates 15 years in the future. One “person” born in 2154 got $41,000. Another 24,500 individuals over 115 claimed $59 million. Even toddlers under five received $254 million. This proves the left’s refusal to secure borders and verify eligibility has turned welfare into a free-for-all. Musk’s team is finally holding fraudsters accountable.
Social Security is another mess. Over five million noncitizens were given Social Security numbers under Biden, creating a “massive incentive” for illegal immigration. DOGE found 1.3 million fraudsters using fake numbers to grab Medicare benefits. Many were even registered to vote in blue states. This isn’t just waste—it’s an attack on democracy. Trump’s executive orders let DOGE connect the dots and expose this scheme.
NGOs are the biggest fraud loophole. Musk revealed billions sent to shady groups with no oversight. These “non-governmental organizations” pocket taxpayer money to push left-wing agendas, like housing illegal immigrants or green energy scams. One group got $2 billion for appliances nobody wanted. Conservatives agree: defunding these groups is key to stopping the gravy train.
DOGE initially aimed to save $2 trillion but recently scaled back to $150 billion for 2026. Critics say the team’s numbers are shaky, but Musk insists progress is real. Already, $70 million was saved by axing useless contracts, like $14,000 for “leadership training.” Every dollar counts when rebuilding America’s economy.
Democrats hate DOGE’s success. Rep. Mikie Sherrill falsely accused Musk of conflicts of interest, ignoring how he’s exposing Biden’s failures. The left wants to protect their bloated government, not help hardworking Americans. Meanwhile, the “Resistance” bureaucracy tries to hide data, but Trump’s orders smashed those walls.
Musk’s work is uncovering what conservatives always knew: government is too big and corrupt. DOGE’s fight against waste ensures taxes fund roads, schools, and veterans—not illegal aliens or future ghosts. The swamp is deep, but Trump’s team is draining it one fraudster at a time.
The left’s chaos opened the floodgates to abuse. Now, Musk and DOGE are cleaning up the mess. Their efforts prove that accountability works. With Trump’s leadership, America can cut waste, secure borders, and put taxpayers first. The days of free handouts for fraudsters are over.
