Summary

Elon Musk suggested cutting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid in a Fox News interview, citing debunked claims about fraud and linking benefits to illegal immigration.

He falsely claimed millions of deceased individuals remain in the Social Security system, a statement previously refuted by officials.

While Trump has promised not to cut entitlement programs, Musk’s remarks indicate they are under threat, potentially impacting millions of Americans.

His rhetoric echoes far-right conspiracy theories, raising concerns about his influence on policy discussions regarding social safety nets.

    If you’re 70, don’t worry this will all be over soon…unless you’re doing an 18 year old right now. I would find me a nice person who might be coughing some freedom up. You’ll find then at the public transit and the urgent care unit at your local hospital. There are quicker ways. Thanks for voting trump!
