Musk says millions of noncitizens were given social security numbers under Biden
Democrats are facing their worst nightmare:
Elon Musk, one of the smartest people on the planet, is revealing their dirty tricks. No wonder they are out to destroy him and his companies.
Musk spoke recently at a town hall in Wisconsin, supporting a Republican candidate for that state’s Supreme Court who could be critical in determining whether the GOP continues to narrowly control the House of Representatives. The currently liberal court is likely to redraw the swing state’s districts to favor Democrats, costing GOP seats.
Continued below.
Democrats' dirty tricks are being called out as Elon Musk and his DOGE team members continue to expose waste, fraud and abuse. No wonder they are running scared.

Surely you're not suggesting that because Mr. Musk said it that it's actually the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Given his record, that is certainly a leap of faith. I believe this is the same person who declared that millions of non-citizens had been voting in Federal elections. When the facts came out it was closer to in the thousands. In state by state statistics on how many suspected cases where non citizens have voted in a federal election was between 0.0001% and 0.0003% of the votes tallied. Only a small fraction of those were eventually proven. He claimed that tens of millions of dead people were still receiving SS payments. Of course this claim has been debunked by Trumps own SSA. He's the same person who posted on his platform X
“USAID spent your tax dollars to fund celebrity trips to Ukraine, all to boost Zelensky’s popularity among Americans.” The post included a video, made to look as though it was from entertainment outlet E! News, that listed large sums various celebrities were supposedly paid for visits to Ukraine." The video was proven to be a fabrication.
E! News never ran any such video. USAID never made those payments to the celebrities.
I could go on and on but I'll quote what he said himself after being called out on the untruths; "“some of the things that I say will be incorrect". That said, here's the skinny on non-citizen Social Security cards;
First the federal program to automatically mail Social Security cards to legal immigrants — called Enumeration Beyond Entry (EBE) — began while Donald Trump was in office in 2017, according to a 2019 Social Security Administration (SSA) inspector general’s report. The EBE program was created to assist the SSA in enumerating certain applicants who: live in the United States, apply for work authorization, and need to obtain a SSN. Under the EBE program, the SSA worked with the Department of Homeland Security to vet the legal status of immigrants in the country who were authorized to work, then automatically issued Social Security numbers. Non-citizens have been receiving SS cards to work for decades. The only thing that changed is that it became easier as they no longer had to appear in person at a SS office. Secondly his buddy, Antonio Gracias, who was there when the "graph" was unveiled said “These are non-citizens that are getting Social Security,” Not true. They received a Social Security number but are not eligible for benefits. (or to vote) Of course the numbers went up under Biden as the program was new and implementation took some time. Before you believe propaganda on either side of the political spectrum, you must first find the truth or lack thereof in their statements.
This, in my opinion is just one reason why the only thing Christ ever said about politics was "Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.". I believe Christians should be very wary of falling into the trap of believing or supporting radical political views not only because Christ Himself refrained from such activity but because one could inadvertently be compromising one's Christian testimony. If you share something that's politically controversial or even false and a non-Christian who knows better or believes otherwise should read it, then that person might think less of your assertion of your faith. Is it really that important to take such a political stand on controversial issues?
