It will be interesting if we find out that Social Security is in fine shape once the fraud has been removed and the Democrat criminals are charged.
The democrat politicians are the ones that raided SS funds years ago to pay for their pet projects. Pet projects get them votes. Pet projects increase their wealth.
I kinda think when this DOGE thing reveals all the political corruption that term limits will sound like a good idea to the majority of Americans and somehow or another be forced on these crooks. The 17 Amendment needs to be repealed too. The House represents the people. The Senate is supposed to represent the states. Lobbying needs to go away or tightly controlled to prevent politicians from getting rich.
Elon sad something interesting the other day regarding the fraud he’s finding:
“ ‘We do find it sort of odd that, you know, there are quite a few people in the bureaucracy who have ostensibly a salary of a few hundred thousand dollars but somehow managed to accrue tens of millions of dollars in net worth while they are in that position,’ Musk said. ‘Which is what happened in USAID. We’re just curious as to where it came from.’
‘Maybe they’re very good at investing, in which case we should take their investment advice perhaps,’ Musk said. ”
From your mouth to God’s ear.
I still don’t understand how all these foreigners are getting it when they have never worked and paid taxes in America.

I applied on Dec 1, 2024 for social security and the site says it can take up to 30 days for approval.
I am at step 2 of 3 and it is Feb 13,2025
Here is a link to many others with the same issue. Many waiting 100 days and some more for approval.

Maybe my information is in a salt mine 230ft underground and some one is looking thru all the paperwork for my information?.... !
