From The Economic Times:
US Vice President JD Vance delivered a fiery message during a discussion about illegal immigration and Social Security benefits. Vance argued that encouraging people who are in the country illegally to claim Social Security benefits would undermine the program rather than protect it. “If you are encouraging illegal aliens to sign up for Social Security and steal Social Security benefits, you're not protecting Social Security, you're destroying it,” Vance said.
Of course, illegal aliens are already ineligible for U.S. Social Security benefits so there would be almost none of them receiving benefits. Maybe Trump needs to issue an executive order slamming immigrants and forbidding them from receiving Social Security benefits. An imaginary solution to an imaginary problem.

JD Vance is going back to his false narrative playbook since the trends are for a blue wave. This is called a Hail Mary.
According to NPR and local officials, U.S. Senator JD Vance spread debunked and baseless claims that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were abducting and eating household pets and local park geese.
Sadly, even those with a green card are being called "illegal" now. I don't think the average person understands the different variations of immigration. 🙄. The title to this post made me a bit angry. My friend (yes MAGA, and yes my friend, tho we agree on absolutely nothing) thinks that undocumented immigrants can just walk right in and get on medicaid. That is SOOOOOOOO not the way it is, and being a deep red person, when you give him evidence (which i did), he just scoffs and walks away not believing it.... if the great orange god in Washington says that's not true than my buddy will believe him over me. 🙄. Do some slip through the cracks and commit fraud? Of course... in every society there are those that will find a way. Is it as prevalent as they say it is??? No, not even close.
Illegal immigrants improve the finances of the Social Security program. No illegal immigrants qualify to take any benefits out of Social Security, but it is well documented that illegal immigrants pay billions of tax dollars into the system. https://itep.org/undocumented-immigrants-taxes-2024/
