President Donald Trump claims that hundreds of thousands of non-citizens and millions of dead Americans have been removed from the Social Security system. [Snip] We've already kicked nearly 275,000 illegal aliens off of the Social Security system,' the Republican said. 'These are people, many of them have already left the country, and yet we were sending them checks all the time.' [Snip] Trump also celebrated the removal of over 12 million individuals aged 120 or older from the SSA system. [Snip]There were nearly 135,000 people listed who are over 160 years old, and in some cases, getting payments.'

Seek self cure/treatment for your TDS, you most virtuous signalers of all that is right and proper. (Non-fascist/supremist/sexist. inclusive, etc) Why? Because what is "right and proper" according to your "leaders" has become patently and observably absurd - and folks are beginning to notice. Crazy Town Music is faltering and you _don't want to be left out_ when the MSM music stops, no chairs to claim, your bum totally exposed.

Good job stopping social security checks for the 12 million persons 120 years of age and over. Unfortunately, those residing in blue states will continue to vote democrat.

Those 120 year olds on SS aren't a new thing, illegals or not. Lots of checks have gone to recipients and been cashed for years after Grandma is long gone. "No need to bother that old SS Agency with details. They are busy people".

Thank you DMUK for reporting what our USAID-funded WaPo and NYT refuse to do. Maybe the insolvency problem in the SS system will be fixed by plugging all of the leaks. Pardon me for doubting that the leaks were not created deliberately.

The main reason I click on DM articles is to read the comments. While the Soros army of trolls has been on overdrive since President Trump was re-elected (for the second time), the tell is in likes vs dislikes, which are overwhelmingly conservative. I’m surprised that DM allows it.

Someone not only received the money, most gov't benefit "checks" now MUST be direct deposited into a bank account so that the Treasury does not have to print and mail a bazillion checks each month but simply do an electronic transfer. That means someone had to submit bank account information to the remitting agency, e.g., SSA, VA, DoD, etc. That should be easy enough to trace with the proper kind of AI set up, just like DOGE has done in various federal agencies it has audited.

The hope and expectation is those SS numbers are now being cross referenced against all other government programs to see if they were used for any "benefits" under those programs. And if they were part of any voter registrations. Need to get this type of information in newspapers across the nation under full page ads to ensure it's properly reported. Then blame the Democrats for not doing anything to correct the problem.

A former top executive for liberal billionaire George Soros' Open Society Foundations (OSF) between 2017 and 2020 is back in the spotlight amid reports highlighting his involvement with Zohran Mamdani's New York City mayoral campaign and connecting Obama world to the campaign. Patrick Gaspard, who has served in several high-profile political positions, including advising former President Barack Obama's historic 2008 campaign, serving as the Democratic National Committee's executive director, and being tapped as the Center for American Progress (CAP) president in 2021, has been informally advising Mamdani on the side and recently introduced Obama campaign architect David Axelrod to him, a recent New York Times article revealed.

Make Vaccine Injury Compensation Fair Again 8 replies
Posted by Harlowe 8/8/2025 11:06:05 AM Post Reply
We’ve known for years that the Covid-19 vaccines left many Americans seriously injured. Yet despite this common knowledge, the federal government’s surveillance to ensure vaccine safety has been substandard, to put it charitably. Worse, its performance in compensating those injured by the vaccine has been pathetic. Now, Congress is finally paying attention to America’s vaccine woes. [Snip] The sheer number of reported adverse events from the Covid-19 vaccine (over 1.8 million) dwarfs all previously reported vaccine injuries. But because it is a “passive” reporting system, largely based on patient self-reporting, VAERS is unable to show a causal relationship between a specific vaccine injection and a particular adverse reaction.
