About those LIES being spread by FOTUS and Musk that dead people are getting SS...
"So are tens of millions of people over 100 years old receiving benefits?
No.

Part of the confusion comes from Social Security’s software system based on the COBOL programming language, which has a lack of date type. This means that some entries with missing or incomplete birthdates will default to a reference point of more than 150 years ago. The news organization WIRED first reported on the use of COBOL programming language at the Social Security Administration.

A series of reports from the Social Security Administration’s inspector general in March 2023 and July 2024 state that the agency has not established a new system to properly annotate death information in its database, which included roughly 18.9 million Social Security numbers of people born in 1920 or earlier but were not marked as deceased. This does not mean that these individuals were receiving benefits." #FOTUSLies #MuskLies

Imran Ahmed, the chief executive of #CCDH, said, “#ElonMusk’s actions represent a brazen attempt to silence honest #criticism & #independent #research.” He added that #Musk wanted to “stem the tide of negative stories & rebuild his relationship with advertisers.”

The center also said it did “not accept any funding from tech companies, governments, or their affiliates.” (Thank you very much. #MuskLies)

Musk is a fraudster -employees celebrated as they canceled appointments & mistreated customers: Some celebrated canceling service appointments by putting their phones on mute & striking a metal xylophone, triggering applause from coworkers. The team often closed hundreds of cases a week & staffers were tracked on their average number of diverted appointments/day🚨.
Managers told the employees that they were saving Tesla about $1K for every canceled appointment-. #MuskLies reuters.com/investigates/speci
