President Trump Says Vance Fraud Task Force Could Save Social Security

President Trump is putting a hard number on what his anti-fraud crackdown has already turned up, and he is tying it directly to two things every American cares about: Social Security and the federal budget.

At the May 27 Cabinet meeting, Trump credited Vice President JD Vance and the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud with exposing tens of billions of dollars in defrauded taxpayer money in just two months.

He said the task force has prosecuted fraudsters and stopped billions of dollars in suspicious payments.

Then he made the point that matters most to seniors and taxpayers: this effort could help save Social Security and, if it works, help balance the budget.
