Since President Donald Trump was inaugurated on January 20, a number of federal government agencies have been vetted by DOGE in an apparent effort to streamline processes and cut spending.
According to a report by The Associated Press, King refused to provide DOGE staffers at the SSA with access to sensitive information. DOGE has reportedly accessed systems at other agencies, including the Treasury Department.
Musk reported on X, formerly Twitter, last week that he is “100% certain that the magnitude of the fraud in federal entitlements (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Welfare, Disability, etc) exceeds the combined sum of every private scam you’ve ever heard by FAR.”
Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chief Elon Musk on Monday posted Social Security data revealing the existence of tens of millions of eligible recipients beyond the total population of the United Sates… The spreadsheet of data showed millions of recipients over the age of 120, including one between the ages of 360 and 369. In total, the data accounting for nearly 395 million people. The population of the U.S. is roughly 335 million people, meaning that about 60 million Social Security numbers were listed as eligible beyond the living population (Just the News).
Elon Musk: According to the Social Security database, these are the numbers of people in each age bucket with the death field set to FALSE (X)!

Acting head of Social Security Administration resigns after dispute with Elon Musk’s DOGE: report
By: NY Post, February 18, 2025;
The Social Security Administration’s acting commissioner reportedly resigned over the weekend after a dispute with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) over the Elon Musk-led group’s efforts to access sensitive government records.
Michelle King, a career federal worker who had been with SSA since 1994, quit over the DOGE disagreement Saturday and was replaced by Leland Dudek, the Washington Post reported Monday.
Dudek, who has been supportive of DOGE’s efforts to root out waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government, will serve as acting commissioner of SSA until President Trump’s pick to lead the agency, Frank Bisignano, is confirmed by the Senate, according to the outlet.
“President Trump has nominated the highly qualified and talented Frank Bisignano to lead the Social Security Administration, and we expect him to be swiftly confirmed in the coming weeks,” White House spokesperson Harrison Fields said in a statement to The Post.
“In the meantime, the agency will be led by a career Social Security anti-fraud expert as the acting commissioner,” Fields added. “President Trump is committed to appointing the best and most qualified individuals who are dedicated to working on behalf of the American people, not to appease the bureaucracy that has failed them for far too long.”
