How does whoever got the money get away with it? Five year olds, 115 year olds, someone with a birth date in the future? Total insanity.

I hope they analyze addresses too. How many people at vacant lots are drawing SS? How many people drawing at the same address that far exceeds the residential capacity?

SS identity fraud.
The only people who can put up these kind of numbers are illegal aliens. Possibly foreign hacking teams that have access to some kind of databases of children who died young, who had SS numbers.

Stealing dead children’s SS numbers has been going on for ages. This got kicked into high gear 20 years ago, with the millions of illegal aliens invading every year. Dumbass GW didn’t seem to mind it either.

There is no profit for the grifters if an organization is ran well, but there is profit for the grifters when the organization is in chaos, especially if the grifters are running the organization.

I wonder how many government employee took advantage to the lack of oversight to take advantage of the chaos.

Call Congress. If you know who your representative is but you are unable to contact them using their contact form, the Clerk of the House maintains phone numbers of all House members and Committees, or call (202) 224-3121 for the US House switchboard operator.

Gee, with this kind of "stuff" going on, it's comforting that my federal refund was held hostage by the IRS and ID.ME while they arbitrarily made me prove my identity online before they would release the money.

Now, since I had to take a selfie of my face and my driver license, I have to wonder if anybody checked to see if the state of issue has the same picture on my DL, or they just relied on "one picture matches the other, so it must be true."

Before they get kicked to the curb, could we at least ask the 115 year olds for advice on longevity? /sarc

We’re not really “winning” if no one is being indicted imo. Is Bondi just gathering evidence, so everything happens at once in one fell swoop?

These are people who took the SS checks after pop died and they have nothing for us to get back. These are the people with $0 savings and on all welfare programs. do we spend $100k prosecuting each one and then $4000 per month incarcerating them? Or just cut them off and lock the back door?

That’s why the government should stick to basics and not run anything. They’re incompetent idiots.
