Trump touts eye-popping number of illegal migrants and dead Americans he's kicked off Social Security | 14 Aug 2025 | President Donald Trump claims that hundreds of thousands of non-citizens and millions of dead Americans have been removed from the Social Security system. The 79-year-old president celebrated the numbers while signing a proclamation commemorating the 90th anniversary of the Social Security Administration (SSA) in the Oval Office on Thursday. "We've already kicked nearly 275,000 illegal aliens off of the Social Security system," the Republican said. "These are people, many of them have already left the country, and yet we were sending them checks all the time." ..."Under President Trump's leadership, SSA updated the Social Security records of about 275,000 individuals no longer holding legal status, ensuring people ineligible to receive benefits are not improperly paid," an SSA spokesperson told the Daily Mail.
