Original Note:
Social Security’s new acting commissioner Lee Dudek refuted these rumors: “The reported data are people in our records with a Social Security number who do not have a date of death associated with their record. These individuals are not necessarily receiving benefits.” https://blog.ssa.gov/social-security-addressing-aged-records/ https://www.newsweek.com/social-security-issues-update-trump-dead-recipient-claims-2040440 https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/upshot/social-security-fraud-claim-musk.html https://www.barrons.com/articles/social-security-benefits-trump-fact-check-55319be8 https://www.axios.com/2025/03/05/trump-social-security-160-claims
