Tens of millions of dead people aren’t getting Social Security checks, despite Trump and Musk claims

The Trump administration is falsely claiming that tens of millions of dead people over 100 years old are receiving Social Security payments. Over the past few days, President Donald Trump and billionaire adviser Elon Musk have said on social media and in press briefings that people who are 100, 200 and even 300 years old are improperly getting benefits — a “HUGE problem,” Musk wrote, as his Department of Government Efficiency digs into federal agencies to root out waste, fraud and abuse. It is true that […]

U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, said voters may eventually have second thoughts about electing President Donald Trump, who has signed a dizzying number of executive orders upending the federal government and threatening trillions of dollars in funding. When asked on “The View” about Trump’s solid approval rating four weeks into his administration and whether Democrats should become more “moderate” on policy issues, Crockett said the Democratic Party has to “do better at education,” particularly after the 2024 presidential election that […]

Trump signs order to study how to expand IVF and calls for ‘radical transparency’ from government

President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order to study how to expand access to in vitro fertilization and make it more affordable.

Wade, leading to a wave of restrictions in Republican-led states, including some […]
