President Trump signed a memo ending Social Security benefits for illegal immigrants.
No more payouts to the ineligible.
The move also expands fraud investigations nationwide.
They’re targeting identity theft and sketchy earnings tied to century-old identities.
The White House says the goal is simple: protect benefits for Americans, not ghost accounts and loopholes.
And no more free handouts to illegals.
Social Security fraudsters, your free ride’s over.

Benny Johnson is right. It’s amazing that this even needs to be signed.
The Western Journal reports:
President Donald Trump signed a memorandum on Tuesday ending Social Security benefits to illegal immigrants.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters ahead of the signing that the directive will be “aimed at stopping illegal aliens and other ineligible people from obtaining Social Security Act benefits.”
Additionally, Leavitt said the memo calls for the expansion of the federal government’s Social Security fraud prosecutor program across the country.
Part of their task will be to “investigate earning reports for those ages 100 or older with mismatched Social Security records to combat identity theft.”
Further, Leavitt explained the memo will direct “the Social Security Administration to consider whether to reinstate the use of civil monetary penalties against individuals who engage in Social Security fraud, an effort that has been paused for several years.”
“These taxpayer-funded benefits should be only for eligible taxpayers,” she said.
Leavitt noted that former President Joe Biden allowed millions to enter the U.S. illegally on his watch, and charged that many of them are fraudulently receiving benefits.

Speaking of social security, it seems the banks haven’t been asking for social security numbers when opening accounts.
And now illegals are upset that they are having trouble getting withdrawing their thousands of dollars.
Illegals in America have been operating on a whole different set of rules than Americans, and by that I mean no rules
This business owner is illegal in America and he’s mad that Bank of America, where his account is, now wants a social security number and ID for withdrawals… pic.twitter.com/TovJHy0etB

Someone in the comments made a great point, “It’s a system that 𝐩𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐬 while rolling out the red carpet” for illegals.
