This is 100% bullshit. There are no algorithms. Musk and his incel clown posse are not forensic accountants and do not know how to audit. Discovering fraud is a labor-intensive project that can never be done by looking at payments alone. This is just a thinly-veiled rationale to gut Social Security.

Mike Johnson on Elon Musk: "We meet late into the night in his office and we've looked at that. What he's finding with his algorithms crawling through the data of Social Security system is enormous amounts of fraud, waste, and abuse."

A minuscule amount….
KURTZ: Are my methods unsound?
WILLARD: I don't see any method at all, sir."
It doesn’t work for fraudulent payments because the fraudsters are just as/or more likely to be on top of missing funds than the genuine recipients. Especially for disability payments.
This would require a very manual review of “outliers” but also others.
Because they're morons.
And upon discovery, assuming said “things” indicated fraud rather than researching the practice?
Yeah, “things”…
Given the things they've claimed to have found elsewhere, that they had to walk back, or in some cases remove evidence of, so they could continue their false claims...
It won't surprise me if one or more of the Muskrats gets charged with federal crimes under a future Dem administration.
They're not "doing" or "working" on anything, well maybe drugs....
if an algorithm could find fraud in payment records, the fraud would have to be blatant.
America should halt if Social Security is touched. We've paid into it for our entire lives and these hostile fascists want to take that away.
It's time to fight.
TELL JOHNSON TO LEAN IN CLOSER.
PIECE OF LYING TRAITOROUS ASSWIPE.
That whole mob needs to be cut & never allowed to work in any govt capacity again, not even as consultants. So many frauds.

Then there are all the illegal aliens who report under the same SSN.
Not because you have too much money
But because they can never have enough
Do we as taxpayers have access to recent audits or other evaluations of Soc. Security to help demonstrate how fraudulent Musk's claims are? We need to hammer this home repeatedly, wherever there is a microphone
Where is the parable about hurting the least if us to benefit the wealthy?
Porn meter off the charts.
Hell waits liars.
And even then, you won't get 100% accuracy.
At best, they asked ChatGPT to write something, and they took that at face value
It is our right and duty as Americans to push back on them - HARD.
You’ll just have to trust us that we found all this
Now, let’s talk about those tax cuts for the rich…
Masters of BS are Rs.
Wait did Johnson say he's browsing SSNs without any privacy controls and restrictions?
Amazon thinks I’m a small Korean man who wants to paint the world teal…
And The Amazing Jeckel Brothers is a top 100-150 hip hop album ever. Fight me.
Then there shouldn't be issues calling a bunch of stupid Musk's incels "incel clown posse" or am I missing something?
It's like if I call Fox News "Fox News Cinematic Universe" and MCU would take offense.
And have to say this...widdle mikey? Has his hands on the levers of power, but looks like a puppet-clone.
I doubt that the Boer could explain big-O versus little-o, etc., notation if his life depended on it, and I only did solution sets for a quarter (Corwen et al.) as a favor to someone.

They can always think there's fraud in SSDI, and they are heading towards killing people to prove it.
As long as Johnson can claim he saw something that he believed in good faith would work, ignorance be damned, he thinks he can skate.
Again, PROSECUTABLE FRAUD IS RARE! My team of 13 found just 4 instances of fraud in 7 years. In that time, we saved $100M/year.
FRAUD IS RARE! Our SIU unit often just focused on mistakes because FRAUD IS RARE!
CMS had some of the most robust program integrity practices. In my experience, it was the contractors that made the most mistakes.
Not saying those are good excuses, but explanations.
It proves my point.

What algorithms? Publish those.

But I guess he already knows this full well.
So………
Sincerely, the general public
ps. This magic algorithm talk needs to be addressed, along with the talk about the “geniuses” going through everything who don’t want to be known by name.
lol
They ask a good question, get a (predictable) BS answer, and then just say, "OK, thanks."

Trump loud & proud said "Day One" prices would go down! That energy prices would drop by 50%! Play the clips! Follow up!
16 presidential golf outings in his 30 days.
At this pace, that's $120mil a year so he can golf.
