In a revelation that confirms the worst suspicions Americans have held for years, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has exposed a stunning, systemic scheme carried out during the Biden Administration: millions of illegal aliens were not only waved into the country—they were handed Social Security numbers, work authorizations, welfare benefits, and, in some cases, even access to voter rolls.
The bombshell findings, revealed on Fox Business by host Stuart Varney, detail an immigration apparatus that appears to have operated less like a government agency and more like a mass-fraud machine designed to fast-track benefits to illegal entrants while sticking American taxpayers with the bill.
DOGE, created under President Trump to root out the waste, fraud, and abuse riddling programs like Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP, discovered that the border crisis was not merely about illegal crossings—it was about the federal government actively helping non-citizens siphon public resources meant for Americans.
Varney opened the segment with what he called “the tip of the iceberg”: Biden’s immigration officials issuing work authorization documents to nearly every illegal alien who filed a dubious asylum claim.
“DOGE has found that immigration gave a work authorization document to illegals just five months after they filed for asylum,” Varney reported. “That document allowed them to work while they waited to hear whether their asylum request had been accepted or denied—knowing it would take years before their case was heard.”
In effect, a fraudulent asylum claim became a golden ticket: file a form, wait a few months, and receive legal cover to remain in the country indefinitely.
But the scandal gets even worse.
According to DOGE, those work authorization approvals triggered automatic Social Security number issuance—no interview, no in-person verification, no proof of identity. The federal government simply mailed SSNs to illegal aliens.
Varney laid out the numbers:
• 270,000 Social Security numbers issued to new illegal entrants in 2021
• 590,000 in 2022
• 964,000 in 2023
• 2.1 million in 2024—right before Biden left office
This means the Biden Administration granted nearly 4 million Social Security numbers to illegal aliens in just four years.
The consequences are staggering. With an SSN in hand, illegal aliens were able to tap into federal benefits, open bank accounts, obtain driver’s licenses, and—most troubling—register to vote. DOGE confirmed that some actually did vote.
But the Medicaid revelation may be the most infuriating for working families struggling to find a doctor.
“DOGE discovered that 1.3 million aliens are now receiving Medicaid,” Varney stated.
That’s right: over a million illegal aliens receiving taxpayer-funded healthcare at a time when American citizens routinely face waitlists, denial letters, and sky-high premiums.
Yet Democrats claim President Trump is “destroying” Social Security and Medicaid by enforcing eligibility rules. Varney cut through that talking point:
“He’s not destroying—he’s weeding out people who don’t qualify. Who is really guilty of misinformation? In this case, it is not Elon Musk.”
The Biden-era scheme now stands as one of the most brazen abuses of federal systems in U.S. history, one that handed America’s social safety net to millions who broke our laws to get here—while hardworking citizens were forced to foot the bill.
DOGE’s revelations are not just damning—they are a warning: America’s institutions can collapse not only from neglect, but from deliberate sabotage masquerading as “compassion.”
