DOGE announced an audit of government benefits found more than five million non-citizens had been assigned social security numbers, meaning any of them could have “legally” (but still illegally) voted. DOGE also discovered another $420 million in “useless contracts” they were able to purge, and the cancellation of a website maintenance contract for the VA for $4.5 million annually.
As Musk’s 130-day “temporary government employee” status sets to expire, Team Trump is signaling they’re fine with Musk’s departure. He seems fine with this as well. Already, department secretaries are beginning to do their internal DOGE-ing. JD Vance says Musk will continue to be Trum’s “friend and advisor” after he leaves DOGE.

At a town hall question and answer with Elon Musk in Green Bay, Wis. on March 30 on behalf of Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel, the White House Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) revealed that since 2021, 5.5 million non-citizens have been given Social Security numbers.
Of those, DOGE has already identified 1.3 million who are collecting Medicaid, a $567 billion a year program to about 79.3 million people at about $7,100 per person collecting, an apparent waste of about $8 billion a year.
According to DOGE’s Antonio Gracias, “We’ve gone through on every benefit program… We found groups from this particular group of people, this 5.5 million people, in those benefit programs.”
