If they did receive checks and those checks were cashed, heads need to roll.
It should be easy enough to figure this one out, checks cashed or not.

you dumb ****. Those people were not receiving anything. They died before electronic death certificates. This saved us ZERO dollars. I am all for cutting costs where we can, but stop acting like this is a win, you just look like a stupid bitch.

That would take 2 years of studies by a committee to determine if it was feasible to implement..

Is there evidence these "people" actually received benefits?


Even if checks were not mailed the annual budget accounted for spending those funds, so my question would be, where are those funds? Just sitting there in limbo or raided and moved somewhere else?

I am betting the latter given our government's history...

We don't know the answer to this. Saying people did not receive anything makes you just as much a dumb*** as somebody that said they were receiving benefits.

The Libs warned us Trump would be cutting SS benefits. Guess they were right.

I'm not sure what your mental issue is with me or with the post, but you kinda sound like you need to take your meds.

Show me where I said checks were going out? I provide a post from X and you call me a stupid bitch? Wow.

Active SS numbers could be used by illegals, or in other ways. Not just getting checks.

This is how everyone knows you have true TDS. Without any knowledge of the situation, you make a definitive statement.

If DOGE was legitimately saving over $1B/month, don't you think they would have specified this? Why were they careful to ensure that nothing relating to benefits was stated or implied in the tweet?

Where were the 3.2 million checks going and can we recover the stolen funds?


That is not what has been potentially happening. To get loans, grants, entitlements from other agencies/departments you have to have a valid SSN. So there is a potential for fraud. Now we need to take those numbers and audit other departments/agencies.

No you look like a stupid bitch for assuming that "those people were not receiving anything". You do not know and neither does anyone else here. DOGE has not released any info. on this other than they were still active in the SS system. If anyone is receiving/cashing checks on behalf of the SS numbers for these obviously deceased individuals the DOJ should be able to track it down.
