US Treasury made $100bn payment to individuals without ID — Elon Musk
Elon Musk, leader of the Department of Government Efficiency, said he was told that there is about a $100 billion annual payment of entitlements to individuals without a Social Security Number or even a temporary identity number.
Musk made this known in a statement through his X account on Saturday, clarifying what DOGE Team and US Treasury have jointly agreed on in the past few days.
Recall that DOGE, backed by US President Donald Trump, swung into action to cut costs across agencies, including the US Treasury Department and the US Agency for International Development, USAID.
Explaining DOGE’s efforts at the Treasury Department, Musk said, “Yesterday (Friday), I was told that there are currently over $100 billion per year of entitlement payments to individuals with no SSN or even a temporary ID number. If accurate, this is extremely suspicious.
