And the Democrats tell us there is no waste!
At a glance:

- Over 3,000 loans worth $333 million were issued to “borrowers” over 115 years old
- Elon Musk-led DOGE is working with the Small Business Administration to address the issue
- DOGE canceled a $10.3 million Agriculture Department contract, saving taxpayers millions
- President Trump previously criticized Social Security for listing millions of impossible centenarians
Massive Fraud Exposed By DOGE Investigation
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by tech billionaire Elon Musk, has revealed that the Small Business Administration (SBA) issued nearly 5,600 loans totaling $312 million to borrowers aged 11 or younger during 2020 and 2021. This alarming discovery came as part of DOGE’s mission to eliminate waste, fraud, and corruption in the federal government under President Trump’s direction.
The investigation also found an additional 3,095 loans worth $333 million given to supposed “borrowers” over 115 years old, with some listed as old as 157. This systematic abuse of taxpayer funds occurred during the COVID pandemic when Democrats pushed for minimal oversight of relief programs.
DOGE stated categorically that while technically possible to have business arrangements involving children, “that is highly unlikely for these 5,593 loans, as they all also used an SSN with the incorrect name.” The efficiency team has already begun working with the SBA to rectify these issues.
Trump Previously Warned About Government Database Issues
President Donald Trump had previously sounded the alarm about similar age-related discrepancies in federal databases. During a rally earlier this year, Trump highlighted the Social Security Administration’s records showing millions of supposed centenarians receiving benefits.
“I know some people who are rather elderly but not quite that elderly, 3.47 million people from ages 120 to 129. 3.9 million people from ages 130 to 139. 3.5 million people from ages 140 to 149. And money is being paid to many of them, and we are searching right now,” Trump stated.
The DOGE discoveries vindicate Trump’s concerns about government waste and inefficiency that has flourished under Democrat administrations. Many of these irregularities occurred during the rushed distribution of pandemic relief funds when safeguards were minimized.
DOGE Already Saving Taxpayers Millions
In addition to exposing the fraudulent loans, DOGE has already canceled a $10.3 million Department of Agriculture contract and terminated 162 nonessential contracts, saving taxpayers approximately $90 million. These early victories demonstrate the potential for significant government savings under proper oversight.
Musk recently met with House Republicans to discuss the team’s progress in identifying government waste. One lawmaker familiar with the meeting reported, “The executive DOGE team is confident, they think they can get $1 trillion” in savings for American taxpayers.
While Democrats have criticized the DOGE initiative, the shocking findings of children receiving business loans worth hundreds of millions makes it difficult to dismiss the importance of this efficiency effort.
How can they keep ignoring these problems?
