One of the big claims is that perhaps the Biden administration had a policy of issuing ssn’s to illegal immigrants. I’m not agreeing or endorsing but this is one of the issues their looking into. If Elon were trustable as an honest broker, this would be compelling to investigate.

Immigrants legal or not that are issued SSNs cannot use them to get money unless they pay into Social Security for at least 10 years and then retire, and only if they don't get deported by then. It's a non-issue that doesn't warrant further investigation.

If it was happening they would be finding them. "I'm just saying this is potentially suspicious" always has to be followed up with some facts that were discovered. Trump and Musk have been claiming huge numbers of bogus 150+ year old social security payments, those appear to not be real - any real fraud would result in criminal citations and would be widely circulated. Soc sec probably has 70 million people on the rolls, there must be some fraud, any huge org has it. But they haven't circulated any info.

Similarly, they claim they found "kids are on social security!" but it turned out to be survivor benefits or similar. They were not even aware or able to check that.

It's like the "illegal immigrants are taking us over" claims, or the Trump claim to "end the Ukraine war in 24 hours". It's apparently very powerful to make these claims of fixing hard problems in a day. You have to have some proof, some results. I see none. The world is hard, I need a leader who doesn't do silly things like tariff random islands in the ocean that have no trade with the us.
