Surprise! DOGEβs Hunt for Social Security Fraud Ends in Total Bust
Elon Musk and his DOGE minions wrecked the Social Security Administration for no reason at all.
After months of baseless claims about βextreme levels of fraudβ within Social Security, Musk's DOGE has found only 2 likely fraudulent claims out of over 110,000βthat makes it a rate of .0018%.
So DOGE found virtually no fraud and made an integral American system less efficient.
