Elon Musk set the record straight on Sunday in a fiery rally held to support Judge Brad Schimel’s bid for the Wisconsin Supreme Court, blasting the media’s fear-mongering over Medicaid cuts under President Trump.
Musk, who has become an unlikely but powerful voice in the fight for transparency and government accountability, didn’t hold back.
Addressing a packed crowd, Musk warned of the high-stakes battle for control of America’s institutions.
“This race could impact the future of America and Western Civilization.”
With Democrats hoping to weaponize a far-left court to redraw congressional districts, Musk emphasized that GOP control of the House is hanging in the balance.
But the rally took an even more electric turn when Musk invited longtime ally Antonio Gracias—Founder of Valor Equity Partners and key figure in Musk’s digital government efficiency project known as DOGE—to reveal what they’ve uncovered in their ongoing investigation into Social Security and Medicaid records.
Gracias dropped a bombshell: under Joe Biden’s administration, the number of non-citizens receiving Social Security numbers skyrocketed from 270,000 in 2021 to an astonishing 2.1 million in 2024.

Musk followed up with a bold promise, dismantling the latest round of media lies that falsely claimed Trump and conservatives were planning to gut Medicaid and Social Security.
“DOGE will make sure you get your Social Security,” Musk said to thunderous applause. “DOGE will make sure you get your Medicaid. There will be no cuts to legitimate payments—whatsoever.”

According to the White House press release earlier this month:
The Trump Administration will not cut Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid benefits. President Trump himself has said it (over and over and over again).
Elon Musk didn’t say that, either. The press is lying again.
Here is Musk’s direct quote: “The waste and fraud in entitlement spending — which is most of the federal spending is entitlements — so, that’s, like, the big one to eliminate. That’s the, sort of half-trillion, maybe $6-700 billion a year.”
And he’s exactly right.
- FACT: The U.S. Government Accountability Office estimates taxpayers lose as much as $521 billion annually to fraud — and most of that is within entitlement programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid.
- FACT: Over the past two decades, the federal government has made an estimated $2.7 trillion in “improper payments” — the majority of which come in the form of “payments to deceased individuals or those who no longer [are] eligible for government programs.”
- FACT: The Social Security Administration made an estimated $72 billion in improper payments between 2015 and 2022.
- FACT: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services estimated it made $140+ billion in improper payments in 2024 alone.
What kind of a person doesn’t support eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse in government spending that ultimately costs taxpayers more?
